One of the easiest ways to create a matrix is to use a list of lists. An index is a pointer, like the index finger for example. Sparse column can not have default value or rule or computed column. To find a specific value in the matrix, you need to iterate over both index arrays, which makes accessing slow when comparing to other formats. Sparse machine learning refers to a collection of methods to learning that seek a tradeo between some goodnessof t measure and sparsity of the result, the latter property allowing better interpretability. This makes searching faster but requires more space to store index records itself.
