ft_hashing_tf: Feature Transformation - HashingTF (Transformer)

In sparklyr: R Interface to Apache Spark

Feature Transformation – HashingTF (Transformer)

Description

Maps a sequence of terms to their term frequencies using the hashing trick.

Usage

ft_hashing_tf(
  x,
  input_col = NULL,
  output_col = NULL,
  binary = FALSE,
  num_features = 2^18,
  uid = random_string("hashing_tf_"),
  ...
)

Arguments

x	A spark_connection, ml_pipeline, or a tbl_spark.
input_col	The name of the input column.
output_col	The name of the output column.
binary	Binary toggle to control term frequency counts. If true, all non-zero counts are set to 1. This is useful for discrete probabilistic models that model binary events rather than integer counts. (default = FALSE)
num_features	Number of features. Should be greater than 0. (default = 2^18)
uid	A character string used to uniquely identify the feature transformer.
...	Optional arguments; currently unused.

Value

The object returned depends on the class of x. If it is a spark_connection, the function returns a ml_estimator or a ml_estimator object. If it is a ml_pipeline, it will return a pipeline with the transformer or estimator appended to it. If a tbl_spark, it will return a tbl_spark with the transformation applied to it.
