Grant Ingersoll commented on MAHOUT-65: --------------------------------------- Jeff, One comment on the GSON serialization stuff. It can get pretty verbose storing the class name repeatedly, although I do realize it's a drop in the bucket compared to the vector itself. Perhaps we could do like Solr does and, if some abbreviated form is present where a class name is required (maybe 'DV' or 'SV') it could know to use those forms, otherwise it can do the full class lookup. Might just save a little bit on size of a serialized file, which I imagine can add up. > 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 > Affects Versions: 0.1 > Reporter: Jeff Eastman > Assignee: Jeff Eastman > Attachments: MAHOUT-65-name.patch, MAHOUT-65.patch, MAHOUT-65b.patch, > MAHOUT-65c.patch, MAHOUT-65d.patch > > > Many applications can benefit by accessing elements in vectors and matrices > using String labels in addition to numeric indices.
