linear models with L1 + L2 regularization. As global optimization objective is strongly-convex, the optimizer optimizes the dual objective at each step. The optimizer applies each update one example at a time. Examples are sampled uniformly, and the optimizer is learning rate free and enjoys linear convergence rate.

Args
`sparse_example_indices`	A list of `Tensor` objects with type `int64`. a list of vectors which contain example indices.
`sparse_feature_indices`	A list with the same length as `sparse_example_indices` of `Tensor` objects with type `int64`. a list of vectors which contain feature indices.
`sparse_feature_values`	A list of `Tensor` objects with type `float32`. a list of vectors which contains feature value associated with each feature group.
`dense_features`	A list of `Tensor` objects with type `float32`. a list of matrices which contains the dense feature values.
`example_weights`	A `Tensor` of type `float32`. a vector which contains the weight associated with each example.
`example_labels`	A `Tensor` of type `float32`. a vector which contains the label/target associated with each example.
`sparse_indices`	A list with the same length as `sparse_example_indices` of `Tensor` objects with type `int64`. a list of vectors where each value is the indices which has corresponding weights in sparse_weights. This field maybe omitted for the dense approach.
`sparse_weights`	A list with the same length as `sparse_example_indices` of `Tensor` objects with type `float32`. a list of vectors where each value is the weight associated with a sparse feature group.
`dense_weights`	A list with the same length as `dense_features` of `Tensor` objects with type `float32`. a list of vectors where the values are the weights associated with a dense feature group.
`example_state_data`	A `Tensor` of type `float32`. a list of vectors containing the example state data.
`loss_type`	A `string` from: `"logistic_loss", "squared_loss", "hinge_loss", "smooth_hinge_loss", "poisson_loss"`. Type of the primal loss. Currently SdcaSolver supports logistic, squared and hinge losses.
`l1`	A `float`. Symmetric l1 regularization strength.
`l2`	A `float`. Symmetric l2 regularization strength.
`num_loss_partitions`	An `int` that is `>= 1`. Number of partitions of the global loss function.
`num_inner_iterations`	An `int` that is `>= 1`. Number of iterations per mini-batch.
`adaptative`	An optional `bool`. Defaults to `True`. Whether to use Adaptive SDCA for the inner loop.
`name`	A name for the operation (optional).

Returns
A tuple of `Tensor` objects (out_example_state_data, out_delta_sparse_weights, out_delta_dense_weights).
`out_example_state_data`	A `Tensor` of type `float32`.
`out_delta_sparse_weights`	A list with the same length as `sparse_example_indices` of `Tensor` objects with type `float32`.
`out_delta_dense_weights`	A list with the same length as `dense_features` of `Tensor` objects with type `float32`.
