> Key: SPARK-12732
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-12732
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: MLlib
> Reporter: Imran Younus
> Assignee: Apache Spark
> Priority: Minor
>
> If the target variable is constant, then the linear regression must check if the fitIntercept is true or false, and handle these two cases separately.
> If the fitIntercept is true, then there is no training needed and we set the intercept equal to the mean of y.
> But if the fit intercept is false, then the model should still train.
> Currently, LinearRegression handles both cases in the same way. It doesn't train the model and sets the intercept equal to the mean of y. Which, means that it returns a non-zero intercept even when the user forces the regression through the origin.
