Ted Dunning commented on MAHOUT-65: ----------------------------------- Adding attributes to elements of vectors or columns of a matrix is a reasonable thing to do, especially where you need to provide a decoding rule for ordinal values. But it really should be a separate JIRA, possibly as a follow-on to this one. The topic here is naming rows and columns for access by name and (hopefully) joining during multiplication. > Add Element Labels to Vectors and Matrices > ------------------------------------------ > > Key: MAHOUT-65 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAHOUT-65 > Project: Mahout > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Matrix > Reporter: Jeff Eastman > Attachments: MAHOUT-65.patch > > > Many applications can benefit by accessing elements in vectors and matrices > using String labels in addition to numeric indices.
