hierarchical-bay-cat-encoder 0.4.5

Bayesian target encoder with the capacity to encode classes derived from categorical features that relate to one another in a hierarchical structure.

Hierarichcial Bayesian Target Encoder

hierarchical-bay-cat-encoder is a Python library for encoding classes of cross features derived from categorical features that relate to one another in a herarchival structure. It facilitates the process of converting categorical features into continuous variables based on the information with respect to target responses, a data preprocessing practice that often improves model performnace in machine learning and is one of well adopted winner techiniques in Kaggle competitions for tabular/structured data.
