Introduction

Data preprocessing is a crucial step in any data analysis or machine learning pipeline. This preprocessing tool provides a systematic approach to cleaning and preparing data by offering modules for inspecting data, handling missing values, managing outliers, scaling numerical features, and transforming variables to improve data quality and model performance.

Problem Statement

Handling raw data can be challenging due to missing values, inconsistent data types, outliers, and other issues that can degrade the performance of predictive models. This tool/library/package aims to streamline the preprocessing workflow, making it easier to clean and prepare data for further analysis.

Features

• Initial Inspection: Provides insights into the dataset, including shape, size, summary statistics, and detailed analysis of missing and duplicated values.
• Data Type Conversion: Converts data types like objects to strings, integers, floats, and datetime, ensuring data consistency.
• Missing Value Handling: Offers multiple strategies to fill or remove missing values, including mean, median, mode, bfill, linear, and polynomial interpolation.
• Outlier Handling: Detects and caps outliers using IQR and Z-score methods.
• Scaling: Standardizes numerical data using Standard Scaler, Robust Scaler, and Normalizer techniques.
• Variable Transformation: Provides transformations like binning, log transformation, square root transformation, label encoding, and one-hot encoding.

Installation

Clone this repository to your local machine and ensure you have Python installed along with the required dependencies:

git clone https://github.com/KaRtHiK-56/EDA_python_package_library
pip install -r requirements.txt

Usage

Initial Data Inspection

The inspection methods provide a detailed overview of your dataset to identify data quality issues upfront.

REFER TO PackageTest.ipynb FOR SAMPLE EXAMPLE

https://github.com/KaRtHiK-56/EDA_python_package_library

!pip install eda-python-library==0.0.1.6

# Import the eda library
from eda.eda import Inspection

Inspection.inspect()
# This will ask you to enter the path of the csv file and then generated the initial inspection.

Handling Missing Values

Handle missing values using different strategies like mean, median, mode, bfill, etc.

# Import and use the MissingValueHandler class
from eda.eda import MissingValueHandler

MissingValueHandler.mean('col1')
MissingValueHandler.b_fill('col3')

Data Type Conversion

Convert data types using the DataTypeConverter class, which supports conversions between object, string, integer, float, and datetime.

# Import and use the DataTypeConverter class
from eda.eda import DataTypeConverter

converter = DataTypeConverter(df)
converter.to_string('col2')
converter.to_datetime('col3')

Outlier Handling

Handle outliers using IQR and Z-score methods.

# Import and use the OutlierHandler class
from eda.eda import OutlierHandler

OutlierHandler.iqr_capping('col1')

Scaling Data

Scale numerical data using Standard Scaler, Robust Scaler, or Normalizer.

# Import and use the ScalingHandler class
from eda.eda import NumericalScaler

NumericalScaler.standardscaler('col1')

Variable Transformation

Transform variables using binning, log transformation, and encoding methods.

# Import and use the VariableTransformation class
from eda.eda import VariableTransformation

VariableTransformation.binner('col1', bins=[0, 1, 2, 3, 4])
VariableTransformation.label_encoding('col2')
