All of the encoders are fully compatible sklearn transformers, so they can be used in pipelines or in your existing scripts. Supported input formats include numpy arrays and pandas dataframes. If the cols parameter isn't passed, all columns with object or pandas categorical data type will be...
Categorical attributes are prevalent in many datasets used for training Machine Learning models. However, most ML models are designed to handle only numerical inputs. Therefore, converting these categorical attributes into numerical values is necessary to utilize them effec...
Measuring the Effect of Categorical Encoders in Machine Learning Tasks Using Synthetic DataMost of the datasets used in Machine Learning (ML) tasks contain categorical attributes. In practice, these attributes must be numerically encoded for their use in supervised learning algorithms. Although there ...
