Feature Transformation – OneHotEncoder (Transformer)

Description

One-hot encoding maps a column of label indices to a column of binary vectors, with at most a single one-value. This encoding allows algorithms which expect continuous features, such as Logistic Regression, to use categorical features. Typically, used with ft_string_indexer() to index a column first.

Usage

ft_one_hot_encoder(
  x,
  input_cols = NULL,
  output_cols = NULL,
  handle_invalid = NULL,
  drop_last = TRUE,
  uid = random_string("one_hot_encoder_"),
  ...
)

Arguments

x

A spark_connection, ml_pipeline, or a tbl_spark.

input_cols

The name of the input columns.

output_cols

The name of the output columns.

handle_invalid

(Spark 2.1.0+) Param for how to handle invalid entries. Options are 'skip' (filter out rows with invalid values), 'error' (throw an error), or 'keep' (keep invalid values in a special additional bucket). Default: "error"

drop_last

Whether to drop the last category. Defaults to TRUE.

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.
