class sklearn.preprocessing.LabelEncoder
[source] -
Encode labels with value between 0 and n_classes-1.
Read more in the User Guide.
Attributes: classes_ : array of shape (n_class,)
Holds the label for each class.

sklearn.preprocessing.OneHotEncoder
- encode categorical integer features using a one-hot aka one-of-K scheme.
Examples
LabelEncoder
can be used to normalize labels.>>> from sklearn import preprocessing >>> le = preprocessing.LabelEncoder() >>> le.fit([1, 2, 2, 6]) LabelEncoder() >>> le.classes_ array([1, 2, 6]) >>> le.transform([1, 1, 2, 6]) array([0, 0, 1, 2]...) >>> le.inverse_transform([0, 0, 1, 2]) array([1, 1, 2, 6])
It can also be used to transform non-numerical labels (as long as they are hashable and comparable) to numerical labels.
>>> le = preprocessing.LabelEncoder() >>> le.fit(["paris", "paris", "tokyo", "amsterdam"]) LabelEncoder() >>> list(le.classes_) ['amsterdam', 'paris', 'tokyo'] >>> le.transform(["tokyo", "tokyo", "paris"]) array([2, 2, 1]...) >>> list(le.inverse_transform([2, 2, 1])) ['tokyo', 'tokyo', 'paris']
Methods
fit
(y)Fit label encoder fit_transform
(y)Fit label encoder and return encoded labels get_params
([deep])Get parameters for this estimator. inverse_transform
(y)Transform labels back to original encoding. set_params
(\*\*params)Set the parameters of this estimator. transform
(y)Transform labels to normalized encoding. -
__init__()
-
x.__init__(...) initializes x; see help(type(x)) for signature
-
fit(y)
[source] -
Fit label encoder
Parameters: y : array-like of shape (n_samples,)
Target values.
Returns: self : returns an instance of self.
-
fit_transform(y)
[source] -
Fit label encoder and return encoded labels
Parameters: y : array-like of shape [n_samples]
Target values.
Returns: y : array-like of shape [n_samples]
-
get_params(deep=True)
[source] -
Get parameters for this estimator.
Parameters: deep : boolean, optional
If True, will return the parameters for this estimator and contained subobjects that are estimators.
Returns: params : mapping of string to any
Parameter names mapped to their values.
-
inverse_transform(y)
[source] -
Transform labels back to original encoding.
Parameters: y : numpy array of shape [n_samples]
Target values.
Returns: y : numpy array of shape [n_samples]
-
set_params(**params)
[source] -
Set the parameters of this estimator.
The method works on simple estimators as well as on nested objects (such as pipelines). The latter have parameters of the form
<component>__<parameter>
so that it?s possible to update each component of a nested object.Returns: self :
-
transform(y)
[source] -
Transform labels to normalized encoding.
Parameters: y : array-like of shape [n_samples]
Target values.
Returns: y : array-like of shape [n_samples]
