LabelEncoder

The LabelEncoder encodes one or more given columns into labels.

Parent type: InvertibleTableTransformer

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description	Default
selector	union<List<String>, String?>	The list of columns used to fit the transformer. If None, all non-numeric columns are used.	null
partialOrder	List<Any?>	The partial order of the labels. The labels are encoded in the order of the given list. Additional values are assigned labels in the order they are encountered during fitting.	[]

Examples:

pipeline example {
   val table = Table({"a": ["z", "y"], "b": [3, 4]});
   val encoder = LabelEncoder(selector = "a").fit(table);
   val transformedTable = encoder.transform(table);
   // Table({"a": [1, 0], "b": [3, 4]})
   val originalTable = encoder.inverseTransform(transformedTable);
   // Table({"a": ["z", "y"], "b": [3, 4]})
}

fitAndTransform

Learn a transformation for a set of columns in a table and apply the learned transformation to the same table.

Note: Neither this transformer nor the given table are modified.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description	Default
table	Table	The table used to fit the transformer. The transformer is then applied to this table.	-

Results:

Name	Type	Description
fittedTransformer	LabelEncoder	The fitted transformer.
transformedTable	Table	The transformed table.

inverseTransform

Undo the learned transformation as well as possible.

Column order and types may differ from the original table. Likewise, some values might not be restored.

Note: The given table is not modified.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description	Default
transformedTable	Table	The table to be transformed back to the original version.	-

Results:

Name	Type	Description
originalTable	Table	The original table.

fun inverseTransform(
    @PythonName("transformed_table") transformedTable: Table
) -> originalTable: Table

transform

Apply the learned transformation to a table.

Note: The given table is not modified.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description	Default
table	Table	The table to which the learned transformation is applied.	-

Results:

Name	Type	Description
transformedTable	Table	The transformed table.
