+ <h1 class="title">Machine Learning Library (MLlib) Guide</h1>
+
+
+ <p>MLlib is Spark&#8217;s machine learning (ML) library.
+Its goal is to make practical machine learning scalable and easy.
+It consists of common learning algorithms and utilities, including classification, regression,
+clustering, collaborative filtering, dimensionality reduction, as well as lower-level optimization
+primitives and higher-level pipeline APIs.</p>
+
+<p>It divides into two packages:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li><a href="mllib-guide.html#data-types-algorithms-and-utilities"><code>spark.mllib</code></a> contains the original API
+built on top of <a href="programming-guide.html#resilient-distributed-datasets-rdds">RDDs</a>.</li>
+ <li><a href="ml-guide.html"><code>spark.ml</code></a> provides higher-level API
+built on top of <a href="sql-programming-guide.html#dataframes">DataFrames</a> for constructing ML pipelines.</li>
+</ul>
+
+<p>Using <code>spark.ml</code> is recommended because with DataFrames the API is more versatile and flexible.
+But we will keep supporting <code>spark.mllib</code> along with the development of <code>spark.ml</code>.
+Users should be comfortable using <code>spark.mllib</code> features and expect more features coming.
+Developers should contribute new algorithms to <code>spark.ml</code> if they fit the ML pipeline concept well,
+e.g., feature extractors and transformers.</p>
+
+<p>We list major functionality from both below, with links to detailed guides.</p>

+
+<p>Some techniques are not available yet in spark.ml, most notably dimensionality reduction
+Users can seamlessly combine the implementation of these techniques found in <code>spark.mllib</code> with the rest of the algorithms found in <code>spark.ml</code>.</p>
+
+<h1 id="dependencies">Dependencies</h1>
+
+<p>MLlib uses the linear algebra package <a href="http://www.scalanlp.org/">Breeze</a>, which depends on
+<a href="https://github.com/fommil/netlib-java">netlib-java</a> for optimised numerical processing.
+If natives libraries<sup id="fnref:1"><a href="#fn:1" class="footnote">1</a></sup> are not available at runtime, you will see a warning message and a pure JVM
+implementation will be used instead.</p>
+
+<p>Due to licensing issues with runtime proprietary binaries, we do not include <code>netlib-java</code>&#8217;s native
+proxies by default.
+To configure <code>netlib-java</code> / Breeze to use system optimised binaries, include
+<code>com.github.fommil.netlib:all:1.1.2</code> (or build Spark with <code>-Pnetlib-lgpl</code>) as a dependency of your
+project and read the <a href="https://github.com/fommil/netlib-java">netlib-java</a> documentation for your
+platform&#8217;s additional installation instructions.</p>
+
+<p>To use MLlib in Python, you will need <a href="http://www.numpy.org">NumPy</a> version 1.4 or newer.</p>
+
+<h1 id="migration-guide">Migration guide</h1>
+
+<p>MLlib is under active development.
+The APIs marked <code>Experimental</code>/<code>DeveloperApi</code> may change in future releases,
+and the migration guide below will explain all changes between releases.</p>
+
+<h2 id="from-15-to-16">From 1.5 to 1.6</h2>
+
+<p>There are no breaking API changes in the <code>spark.mllib</code> or <code>spark.ml</code> packages, but there are
+deprecations and changes of behavior.</p>
+
+<p>Deprecations:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li><a href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-11358">SPARK-11358</a>:
+ In <code>spark.mllib.clustering.KMeans</code>, the <code>runs</code> parameter has been deprecated.</li>
+ <li><a href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-10592">SPARK-10592</a>:
+ In <code>spark.ml.classification.LogisticRegressionModel</code> and
+ <code>spark.ml.regression.LinearRegressionModel</code>, the <code>weights</code> field has been deprecated in favor of
+ the new name <code>coefficients</code>. This helps disambiguate from instance (row) &#8220;weights&#8221; given to
+ algorithms.</li>
+</ul>
+
+<p>Changes of behavior:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li><a href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-7770">SPARK-7770</a>:
+ <code>spark.mllib.tree.GradientBoostedTrees</code>: <code>validationTol</code> has changed semantics in 1.6.
+ Previously, it was a threshold for absolute change in error. Now, it resembles the behavior of
+ <code>GradientDescent</code>&#8217;s <code>convergenceTol</code>: For large errors, it uses relative error (relative to the
+ previous error); for small errors (<code>&lt; 0.01</code>), it uses absolute error.</li>
+ <li><a href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-11069">SPARK-11069</a>:
+ <code>spark.ml.feature.RegexTokenizer</code>: Previously, it did not convert strings to lowercase before
+ tokenizing. Now, it converts to lowercase by default, with an option not to. This matches the
+ behavior of the simpler <code>Tokenizer</code> transformer.</li>
+</ul>
