Impute numerical features by histogram.

During training, a histogram is fitted on each column using R's hist() function. The fitted histogram is then sampled from for imputation. Sampling happens in a two-step process: First, a bin is sampled from the histogram, then a value is sampled uniformly from the bin. This is an approximation to sampling from the empirical training data distribution (i.e. sampling from training data with replacement), but is much more memory efficient for large datasets, since the $state does not need to save the training data.

Format

R6Class object inheriting from PipeOpImpute/PipeOp.

Construction

PipeOpImputeHist$new(id = "imputehist", param_vals = list())

  • id :: character(1)
    Identifier of resulting object, default "imputehist".

  • param_vals :: named list
    List of hyperparameter settings, overwriting the hyperparameter settings that would otherwise be set during construction. Default list().

Input and Output Channels

Input and output channels are inherited from PipeOpImpute.

The output is the input Task with all affected numeric features missing values imputed by (column-wise) histogram; see Description for details.

State

The $state is a named list with the $state elements inherited from PipeOpImpute.

The $state$model is a named list of lists containing elements $counts and $breaks.

Parameters

The parameters are the parameters inherited from PipeOpImpute.

Internals

Uses the graphics::hist() function. Features that are entirely NA are imputed as 0.

Methods

Only methods inherited from PipeOpImpute/PipeOp.
