> Cholesky decomposition is unstable (for near-singular and rank deficient matrices), it was often used when matrix A is very large and sparse due to faster calculation. QR decomposition has better numerical properties than Cholesky. Spark MLlib WeightedLeastSquares use Cholesky decomposition to solve normal equation currently, we should also support or move to QR solver for better stability.
