Github user Krimit commented on the issue:

    https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/17673
  
    I'm happy to take a look! I'll have some time to dig in deeper tomorrow. 
Some of my initial impressions:
    * There's a lot going on here, I agree with @hhbyyh that it would be 
cleaner to put the CBOW code in a new class
    * Can you provide some information about the practical differences between 
CBOW and skip-grams? Wikipedia quotes the author (I assume they mean Tomas) as 
saying that ``CBOW is faster while skip-gram is slower but does a better job 
for infrequent words``. Has this been your experience as well? How pronounced 
is the difference? in what cases would a user choose one over the other? I'm 
basically seconding @hhbyyh's comment on a more in-depth comparison experiment. 
The fact that the original paper has both implementations is not in itself 
enough of a reason for Spark to do the same, IMO
