Feature Scale¶
Feature scale is a process that scales each feature along column. Feature Scale module supports min-max scale and standard scale.
- min-max scale: this estimator scales and translates each feature individually such that it is in the given range on the training set, e.g. between min and max value of each feature.
- standard scale: standardize features by removing the mean and scaling to unit variance
Param¶

Classes¶
ScaleParam (BaseParam)
¶
Define the feature scale parameters.
Parameters¶
method : {"standard_scale", "min_max_scale"} like scale in sklearn, now it support "min_max_scale" and "standard_scale", and will support other scale method soon. Default standard_scale, which will do nothing for scale
mode : {"normal", "cap"} for mode is "normal", the feat_upper and feat_lower is the normal value like "10" or "3.1" and for "cap", feat_upper and feature_lower will between 0 and 1, which means the percentile of the column. Default "normal"
feat_upper : int or float or list of int or float the upper limit in the column. If use list, mode must be "normal", and list length should equal to the number of features to scale. If the scaled value is larger than feat_upper, it will be set to feat_upper
int or float or list of int or float
the lower limit in the column. If use list, mode must be "normal", and list length should equal to the number of features to scale. If the scaled value is less than feat_lower, it will be set to feat_lower
list
the idx of column in scale_column_idx will be scaled, while the idx of column is not in, it will not be scaled.
scale_names : list of string Specify which columns need to scaled. Each element in the list represent for a column name in header. default: []
with_mean : bool used for "standard_scale". Default True.
with_std : bool used for "standard_scale". Default True. The standard scale of column x is calculated as : z = (x - u) / s , where u is the mean of the column and s is the standard deviation of the column. if with_mean is False, u will be 0, and if with_std is False, s will be 1.
need_run : bool Indicate if this module needed to be run, default True

Define the feature scale parameters.
Parameters
----------
method : {"standard_scale", "min_max_scale"}
like scale in sklearn, now it support "min_max_scale" and "standard_scale", and will support other scale method soon.
Default standard_scale, which will do nothing for scale
mode : {"normal", "cap"}
for mode is "normal", the feat_upper and feat_lower is the normal value like "10" or "3.1"
and for "cap", feat_upper and feature_lower will between 0 and 1, which means the percentile of the column. Default "normal"
feat_upper : int or float or list of int or float
the upper limit in the column.
If use list, mode must be "normal", and list length should equal to the number of features to scale.
If the scaled value is larger than feat_upper, it will be set to feat_upper
feat_lower: int or float or list of int or float
the lower limit in the column.
If use list, mode must be "normal", and list length should equal to the number of features to scale.
If the scaled value is less than feat_lower, it will be set to feat_lower
scale_col_indexes: list
the idx of column in scale_column_idx will be scaled, while the idx of column is not in, it will not be scaled.
scale_names : list of string
Specify which columns need to scaled. Each element in the list represent for a column name in header. default: []
with_mean : bool
used for "standard_scale". Default True.
with_std : bool
used for "standard_scale". Default True.
The standard scale of column x is calculated as : $z = (x - u) / s$ , where $u$ is the mean of the column and $s$ is the standard deviation of the column.
if with_mean is False, $u$ will be 0, and if with_std is False, $s$ will be 1.
need_run : bool
Indicate if this module needed to be run, default True
