Debasish Das commented on SPARK-2426:
-------------------------------------

[~mengxr] Should I add the PR to spark packages and close the JIRA ? The main 
contribution was to add sparsity constraints (L1 and probability simplex) to 
user and product factors in implicit and explicit feedback factorization and 
interested users can use the features from spark packages if they need...Later 
if there is community interest, we can pull it in to master ALS ?

>                 Key: SPARK-2426
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-2426
>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: New Feature
>          Components: MLlib
>    Affects Versions: 1.4.0
>            Reporter: Debasish Das
>            Assignee: Debasish Das
>   Original Estimate: 504h
>  Remaining Estimate: 504h

> Current ALS supports least squares and nonnegative least squares.
> I presented ADMM and IPM based Quadratic Minimization solvers to be used for 
> the following ALS problems:
> 1. ALS with bounds
> 2. ALS with L1 regularization
> 3. ALS with Equality constraint and bounds
> Initial runtime comparisons are presented at Spark Summit. 
> http://spark-summit.org/2014/talk/quadratic-programing-solver-for-non-negative-matrix-factorization-with-spark
> Based on Xiangrui's feedback I am currently comparing the ADMM based 
> Quadratic Minimization solvers with IPM based QpSolvers and the default 
> ALS/NNLS. I will keep updating the runtime comparison results.
> For integration the detailed plan is as follows:
> 1. Add QuadraticMinimizer and Proximal algorithms in mllib.optimization
> 2. Integrate QuadraticMinimizer in mllib ALS
