---------------------------------
Target Version/s: 1.5.0 (was: 1.4.0)
> Add a model.matrix like capability to DataFrames (modelDataFrame)
> -----------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: SPARK-6823

> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: ML, SparkR
> Reporter: Shivaram Venkataraman

> Currently Mllib modeling tools work only with double data. However, data tables in practice often have a set of categorical fields (factors in R), that need to be converted to a set of 0/1 indicator variables (making the data actually used in a modeling algorithm completely numeric). In R, this is handled in modeling functions using the model.matrix function. Similar functionality needs to be available within Spark.
