Github user imatiach-msft commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/16654 @zhengruifeng don't most ML libraries have separate clustering evaluators? For example, WEKA has ClusterEvalution class. Scikit-learn just has a metrics class and functions you can call, but I don't really like that option and in any case it is separate from the estimator/model. H2O has a MetricBuilder that all ML learners (supervised/unsupervised) generate. I think creating a separate evaluation class which would fit in with the other evaluators in spark would be ideal - it would conform to the structure of the current codebase and possibly limit any confusion users might have.
