             Summary: QR solver for WeightedLeastSquare
                 Key: SPARK-17824
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-17824
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: ML
            Reporter: Yanbo Liang
            Assignee: Yanbo Liang


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.
