:: Experimental :: Rescale each feature individually to a common range [min, max] linearly using column summary statistics, which is also known as min-max normalization or Rescaling.
:: Experimental :: Rescale each feature individually to a common range [min, max] linearly using column summary statistics, which is also known as min-max normalization or Rescaling. The rescaled value for feature E is calculated as,
Rescaled(e_i) = \frac{e_i - E_{min}}{E_{max} - E_{min}} * (max - min) + min
For the case E_{max} == E_{min}, Rescaled(e_i) = 0.5 * (max + min) Note that since zero values will probably be transformed to non-zero values, output of the transformer will be DenseVector even for sparse input.

:: Experimental :: A feature transformer that converts the input array of strings into an array of n-grams. Null values in the input array are ignored. It returns an array of n-grams where each n-gram is represented by a space-separated string of words.
When the input is empty, an empty array is returned. When the input array length is less than n (number of elements per n-gram), no n-grams are returned.

:: Experimental :: A one-hot encoder that maps a column of category indices to a column of binary vectors, with at most a single one-value per row that indicates the input category index.
:: Experimental ::
A one-hot encoder that maps a column of category indices to a column of binary vectors, with
at most a single one-value per row that indicates the input category index.
For example with 5 categories, an input value of 2.0 would map to an output vector of
[0.0, 0.0, 1.0, 0.0]
.
The last category is not included by default (configurable via OneHotEncoder!.dropLast
because it makes the vector entries sum up to one, and hence linearly dependent.
So an input value of 4.0 maps to [0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0]
.
Note that this is different from scikit-learn's OneHotEncoder, which keeps all categories.
The output vectors are sparse.

:: Experimental ::
Perform feature expansion in a polynomial space. As said in wikipedia of Polynomial Expansion,
which is available at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polynomial_expansion, "In mathematics, an
expansion of a product of sums expresses it as a sum of products by using the fact that
multiplication distributes over addition". Take a 2-variable feature vector as an example:
(x, y)
, if we want to expand it with degree 2, then we get (x, x * x, y, x * y, y * y)

The subset of features can be specified with either indices (setIndices()) or names (setNames()). At least one feature must be selected. Duplicate features are not allowed, so there can be no overlap between selected indices and names.
The output vector will order features with the selected indices first (in the order given), followed by the selected names (in the order given).

Feature transformers
The
ml.feature
package provides common feature transformers that help convert raw data or features into more suitable forms for model fitting. Most feature transformers are implemented as Transformers, which transform one DataFrame into another, e.g., HashingTF. Some feature transformers are implemented as Estimators, because the transformation requires some aggregated information of the dataset, e.g., document frequencies in IDF. For those feature transformers, calling Estimator!.fit is required to obtain the model first, e.g., IDFModel, in order to apply transformation. The transformation is usually done by appending new columns to the input DataFrame, so all input columns are carried over.We try to make each transformer minimal, so it becomes flexible to assemble feature transformation pipelines. Pipeline can be used to chain feature transformers, and VectorAssembler can be used to combine multiple feature transformations, for example:
Some feature transformers implemented in MLlib are inspired by those implemented in scikit-learn. The major difference is that most scikit-learn feature transformers operate eagerly on the entire input dataset, while MLlib's feature transformers operate lazily on individual columns, which is more efficient and flexible to handle large and complex datasets.
