Backport of SPARK-12834 for branch-1.6
Original PR: #10772
Original commit message:
We use
SerDe.dumps()
to serializeJavaArray
andJavaList
inPythonMLLibAPI
, then deserialize them withPickleSerializer
in Python side. However, there is no need to transform them in such an inefficient way. Instead of it, we can use type conversion to convert them, e.g.list(JavaArray)
orlist(JavaList)
. What's more, there is an issue to Ser/De Scala Array as I said in https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-12780
