I see a Seqence File Text/VectorWritable with my original keys, and 99
valuesfor each element in my original dataset.

This matrix needs to be the input to SSVD (for dimensional reduction),
Ok so I tried that and indeed the SSVD accepts the matrix as input and
gives me a Sequence File IntWritable/VectorWritable.

Here it doesn't work anymore, the NB wants a Sequence File
Text/VectorWritable, and it won't take the one created hereabove.
Is there a counterpart to rowId that takes a matrix and docIndex outputs
the SequenceFile ?
