[jira] [Created] (MAHOUT-1932) Interchangeable Solvers

Trevor Grant created MAHOUT-1932:
------------------------------------

             Summary: Interchangeable Solvers 
                 Key: MAHOUT-1932
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAHOUT-1932
             Project: Mahout
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Algorithms
    Affects Versions: 0.13.0
            Reporter: Trevor Grant


Currently all algorithms are solving 'closed' form.  

It would be good to create open form solvers and optionally invoke them. 

Two such solvers are Stochastic Gradient Descent, and Genetic Algorithms. 

An abstract solver trait, and implementations of at least these two solving mechanisms (to avoid bias in choosing what to include/not include in the Solver trait). 

Refactoring current algorithms to accept optional Solver.
