This commit fixes a bug in
ingestion.pywhere sparse matrices with null entries at the end were being read with incorrect dimensions.Previously, the
read_input_vectorsfunction would convert a sparse matrix to a dense matrix without accounting for trailing null columns. This could lead to a mismatch in dimensions later in the code.For example, a sparse array whose schema specified a shape of
10x100might be read as a10x90dense matrix if its last 10 columns were empty.The fix adds a check to ensure the matrix is padded with zeros to the expected dimensions, preventing the dimension mismatch.
