categorical: Machine Learning Categorical Data Transform

  • Cikk

Categorical transform that can be performed on data before training a model.

Usage

  categorical(vars, outputKind = "ind", maxNumTerms = 1e+06, terms = "",
    ...)

Arguments

vars

A character vector or list of variable names to transform. If named, the names represent the names of new variables to be created.

outputKind

A character string that specifies the kind of output kind.

  • "ind": Outputs an indicator vector. The input column is a vector of categories, and the output contains one indicator vector per slot in the input column.
  • "bag": Outputs a multi-set vector. If the input column is a vector of categories, the output contains one vector, where the value in each slot is the number of occurrences of the category in the input vector. If the input column contains a single category, the indicator vector and the bag vector are equivalent
  • "key": Outputs an index. The output is an integer ID (between 1 and the number of categories in the dictionary) of the category.
    The default value is "ind".

maxNumTerms

An integer that specifies the maximum number of categories to include in the dictionary. The default value is 1000000.

terms

Optional character vector of terms or categories.

...

Additional arguments sent to compute engine.

Details

The categorical transform passes through a data set, operating on text columns, to build a dictionary of categories. For each row, the entire text string appearing in the input column is defined as a category. The output of the categorical transform is an indicator vector. Each slot in this vector corresponds to a category in the dictionary, so its length is the size of the built dictionary. The categorical transform can be applied to one or more columns, in which case it builds a separate dictionary for each column that it is applied to.

categorical is not currently supported to handle factor data.

Value

A maml object defining the transform.
