Feature Transformation – VectorIndexer (Estimator)
Indexing categorical feature columns in a dataset of Vector.
ft_vector_indexer(
x,
input_col = NULL,
output_col = NULL,
handle_invalid = "error",
max_categories = 20,
uid = random_string("vector_indexer_"),
...
)x |
A |
input_col |
The name of the input column. |
output_col |
The name of the output column. |
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" |
max_categories |
Threshold for the number of values a categorical feature can take. If a feature is found to have > |
uid |
A character string used to uniquely identify the feature transformer. |
... |
Optional arguments; currently unused. |
In the case where x is a tbl_spark, the estimator fits against x
to obtain a transformer, which is then immediately used to transform x, returning a tbl_spark.
The object returned depends on the class of x.
spark_connection: When x is a spark_connection, the function returns a ml_transformer,
a ml_estimator, or one of their subclasses. The object contains a pointer to
a Spark Transformer or Estimator object and can be used to compose
Pipeline objects.
ml_pipeline: When x is a ml_pipeline, the function returns a ml_pipeline with
the transformer or estimator appended to the pipeline.
tbl_spark: When x is a tbl_spark, a transformer is constructed then
immediately applied to the input tbl_spark, returning a tbl_spark
