PowerTransformer#
- class feature_engine.transformation.PowerTransformer(variables=None, exp=0.5)[source]#
The PowerTransformer() applies power or exponential transformations to numerical variables.
The PowerTransformer() works only with numerical variables.
A list of variables can be passed as an argument. Alternatively, the transformer will automatically select and transform all numerical variables.
More details in the User Guide.
- Parameters
- variables: list, default=None
The list of numerical variables to transform. If None, the transformer will automatically find and select all numerical variables.
- exp: float or int, default=0.5
The power (or exponent).
- Attributes
- variables_:
The group of variables that will be transformed.
- n_features_in_:
The number of features in the train set used in fit.
Methods
fit:
This transformer does not learn parameters.
transform:
Apply the power transformation to the variables.
fit_transform:
Fit to data, then transform it.
inverse_transform:
Convert the data back to the original representation.
- fit(X, y=None)[source]#
This transformer does not learn parameters.
- Parameters
- X: pandas dataframe of shape = [n_samples, n_features]
The training input samples. Can be the entire dataframe, not just the variables to transform.
- y: pandas Series, default=None
It is not needed in this transformer. You can pass y or None.
- fit_transform(X, y=None, **fit_params)[source]#
Fit to data, then transform it.
Fits transformer to
Xandywith optional parametersfit_paramsand returns a transformed version ofX.- Parameters
- Xarray-like of shape (n_samples, n_features)
Input samples.
- yarray-like of shape (n_samples,) or (n_samples, n_outputs), default=None
Target values (None for unsupervised transformations).
- **fit_paramsdict
Additional fit parameters.
- Returns
- X_newndarray array of shape (n_samples, n_features_new)
Transformed array.
- get_params(deep=True)[source]#
Get parameters for this estimator.
- Parameters
- deepbool, default=True
If True, will return the parameters for this estimator and contained subobjects that are estimators.
- Returns
- paramsdict
Parameter names mapped to their values.
- inverse_transform(X)[source]#
Convert the data back to the original representation.
- Parameters
- X: Pandas DataFrame of shape = [n_samples, n_features]
The data to be transformed.
- Returns
- X_tr: pandas Dataframe
The dataframe with the power transformed variables.
- :rtype:py:class:
~pandas.core.frame.DataFrame
- set_params(**params)[source]#
Set the parameters of this estimator.
The method works on simple estimators as well as on nested objects (such as
Pipeline). The latter have parameters of the form<component>__<parameter>so that it’s possible to update each component of a nested object.- Parameters
- **paramsdict
Estimator parameters.
- Returns
- selfestimator instance
Estimator instance.
