Description

[via Andy Twigg]

Improve and unify the Mahout classification API. Also related to the refactoring of the clustering APIs MAHOUT-1177.

The two APIs should be roughly the same, at least in
terms of input/output so that pipelining etc is easier. (cf
scikit-learn clustering/classifier/regression API)

Currently Mahout support:

• logistic regression
• Naive Bayes
• Random Forests
