[jira] [Updated] (SPARK-20949) Is there another reason for the
onehotencoder is different from scikit learn than specified in scaladoc?
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-20949?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
Sungjun Kim updated SPARK-20949:
--------------------------------
Description:
Spark OneHotEncoder is different from that of scikit learn.
It makes an entry into zero vector.
In scaladoc, there is a reason for this. It says that "it makes the vector entries sum up to one, and hence linearly dependent." But I don't think this is correct. Consider vectors [1.0, 0.0], [0.0, 1.0]. They sums 1 but are linearly independent obviously. Am I missing something? or Is there any other reason?

It makes an entry into a vector having components are all zeros.

Consider vectors [1.0, 0.0], [0.0, 1.0]. They sums 1 but are linearly independent obviously. Am I missing something? or Is there any other reason?
