This guide will outline the functionality supported in MLlib and also provides
an example of invoking MLlib.
# Dependencies
MLlib uses the [jblas](https://github.com/mikiobraun/jblas) linear algebra library, which itself
depends on native Fortran routines. You may need to install the
[gfortran runtime library](https://github.com/mikiobraun/jblas/wiki/Missing-Libraries)
if it is not already present on your nodes. MLlib will throw a linking error if it cannot
detect these libraries automatically.
# Binary Classification
Binary classification is a supervised learning problem in which we want to
