[jira] [Commented] (SPARK-2401) AdaBoost.MH, a multi-class multi-label classifier

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-2401?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14224575#comment-14224575 ] 

Sean Owen commented on SPARK-2401:
----------------------------------

This looks like a duplicate of SPARK-1546. At least the first effort should be to get any AdaBoost algo at all going.

> Multi-class multi-label classifiers are very useful in web page profiling, audience segmentation etc. The goal of a multi-class multi-label classifier is to tag a sample data point with a subset of labels from a finite, pre-specified set, e.g. tagging a visitor with a set of interests. Given a set of L labels, a data point can be tagged with one of the 2^L possible subsets. The main challenges in training a multi-class multi-label classifier are the exponentially large label space. 
> This JIRA is created to track the effort of solving the training problem of multi-class, multi-label classifiers by implementing AdaBoost.MH on Apache Spark. It will not be an easy task. I will start from a basic DecisionStump weak learner and a simple Hamming tree resembling DecisionStumps into a meta weak learner, and the iterative boosting procedure. I will be reusing modules of Alexander Ulanov's multi-class and multi-label metrics evaluation and Manish Amde's decision tree/boosting/ensemble implementations.
