Uses the pimp-my-library pattern to add Scala-friendly methods like map and fold to Mahout vectors, making them easier to use in Scalding jobs without constant wrapping, as shown in the README with examples of vector operations.

Integrates VectorSerializer with Kryo to transparently handle serialization of Mahout vectors, eliminating the need for VectorWritable wrappers in Hadoop workflows, as demonstrated in the registration code snippets.

Implements K-Means with support for K-Means++ and K-Means|| initialization, reducing iterations and improving performance in Hadoop environments, with extensible vector representations via the VectorHelper trait.

Built on Scalding, enabling machine learning pipelines to be directly embedded in data processing workflows on Hadoop for scalable computation, as evidenced by the K-Means job example using Scalding Tool.
