MLlib supports various methods for
[binary classification](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_classification),
[multiclass
classification](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiclass_classification), and
[regression analysis](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regression_analysis). The table below outlines
the supported algorithms for each type of problem.
<table class="table">
<thead>
<tr><th>Problem Type</th><th>Supported Methods</th></tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>Binary Classification</td><td>linear SVMs, logistic regression, decision trees, naive Bayes</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Multiclass Classification</td><td>decision trees, naive Bayes</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Regression</td><td>linear least squares, Lasso, ridge regression, decision trees</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
