             Summary: Implement the Orthant-wise Limited Memory QuasiNewton 
optimization algorithm, a variant of L-BFGS that handles L1 regularization
                 Key: FLINK-1965
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-1965
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: Wish
          Components: Machine Learning Library
            Reporter: Theodore Vasiloudis
            Priority: Minor


The Orthant-wise Limited Memory QuasiNewton (OWL-QN) is a quasi-Newton 
optimization method similar to L-BFGS that can handle L1 regularization. 

Implementing this would allow us to obtain sparse solutions while at the same 
time having the convergence benefits of a quasi-Newton method, when compared to 
stochastic gradient descent.
