This PR is WIP because it depends on a SNAPSHOT version of breeze.
Per previous discussions and benchmarks, I switched to breeze for linear algebra operations. @dlwh and I made some improvements to breeze to keep its performance comparable to the bare-bone implementation, including norm computation and squared distance. This is why this PR needs to depend on a SNAPSHOT version of breeze.
@fommil , please find the notice of using netlib-core in `NOTICE`. This is following Apache's instructions on appropriate labeling.
I'm going to update this PR to include:
1. Fast distance computation: using `\|a\|_2^2 + \|b\|_2^2 - 2 a^T b` when it doesn't introduce too much numerical error. The squared norms are pre-computed. Otherwise, computing the distance between the center (dense) and a point (possibly sparse) always takes O(n) time.
2. Some numbers about the performance.
3. A released version of breeze. @dlwh, a minor release of breeze will help this PR get merged early. Do you mind sharing breeze's release plan? Thanks!
