- users or items, matching the functionality in `mllib`
- ([SPARK-19535](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-19535)).
- Performance was also improved for both `ml` and `mllib`
- ([SPARK-11968](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-11968) and
- [SPARK-20587](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-20587))

- ([SPARK-19636](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-19636) and
- [SPARK-19635](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-19635))
-* [`FPGrowth`](ml-frequent-pattern-mining.html#fp-growth) algorithm for frequent pattern mining
- ([SPARK-14503](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-14503))
-* `GLM` now supports the full `Tweedie` family
- ([SPARK-18929](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-18929))

+* [`OneHotEncoderEstimator`](ml-features.html#onehotencoderestimator) was added, and should be
+used instead of the existing `OneHotEncoder` transformer. The new estimator supports
+transforming multiple columns.
+* Multiple column support was also added to `QuantileDiscretizer` and `Bucketizer`

 **Deprecations**
 
-There are no deprecations.
+* `OneHotEncoder` has been deprecated and will be removed in `3.0`. It has been replaced by the
+new [`OneHotEncoderEstimator`](ml-features.html#onehotencoderestimator)
+(see [SPARK-13030](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-13030)). **Note** that

+`OneHotEncoderEstimator` will be kept as an alias).
 
 **Changes of behavior**
 
 * [SPARK-21027](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-21027):
- We are now setting the default parallelism used in `OneVsRest` to be 1 (i.e. serial), in 2.2 and earlier version,
- the `OneVsRest` parallelism would be parallelism of the default threadpool in scala.
