Github user elfausto commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/23146 Thanks for your review, @srowen. I added a link to the PR's description and the JIRA ticket pointing to the reference Python implementation I used for unit testing. Prior regularization fits nicely with taking a Bayesian approach to Logistic Regression by posing a Gaussian prior and taking a Laplace approximation to the posterior. I'm not sure about approaching other regularized models in the same fashion. As a reference, besides this being a textbook algorithm, the original motivation for its implementation at [Affectv](https://affectv.com/), was the following paper showing its application to display advertising: _Olivier Chapelle , Eren Manavoglu , Romer Rosales, Simple and Scalable Response Prediction for Display Advertising, ACM Transactions on Intelligent Systems and Technology (TIST), v.5 n.4, January 2015_.
