snowflake.ml.modeling.preprocessing.RobustScaler

class snowflake.ml.modeling.preprocessing.RobustScaler(*, with_centering: bool = True, with_scaling: bool = True, quantile_range: Tuple[float, float] = (25.0, 75.0), unit_variance: bool = False, input_cols: Optional[Union[str, Iterable[str]]] = None, output_cols: Optional[Union[str, Iterable[str]]] = None, passthrough_cols: Optional[Union[str, Iterable[str]]] = None, drop_input_cols: Optional[bool] = False)

Bases: BaseTransformer

Scales features using statistics that are robust to outliers. Values must be of float type.

For more details on what this transformer does, see sklearn.preprocessing.RobustScaler.

Parameters:
  • with_centering – bool, default=True If True, center the data around zero before scaling.

  • with_scaling – bool, default=True If True, scale the data to interquartile range.

  • quantile_range – Tuple[float, float], default=(25.0, 75.0) tuple like (q_min, q_max), where 0.0 < q_min < q_max < 100.0, default=(25.0, 75.0). Quantile range used to calculate scale_. By default, this is equal to the IQR, i.e., q_min is the first quantile and q_max is the third quantile.

  • unit_variance – bool, default=False If True, scale data so that normally-distributed features have a variance of 1. In general, if the difference between the x-values of q_max and q_min for a standard normal distribution is greater than 1, the dataset is scaled down. If less than 1, the dataset is scaled up.

  • input_cols – Optional[Union[str, List[str]]], default=None The name(s) of one or more columns in the input DataFrame containing feature(s) to be scaled. Input columns must be specified before fit with this argument or after initialization with the set_input_cols method. This argument is optional for API consistency.

  • output_cols – Optional[Union[str, List[str]]], default=None The name(s) to assign output columns in the output DataFrame. The number of columns specified must equal the number of input columns. Output columns must be specified before transform with this argument or after initialization with the set_output_cols method. This argument is optional for API consistency.

  • passthrough_cols – Optional[Union[str, List[str]]], default=None A string or a list of strings indicating column names to be excluded from any operations (such as train, transform, or inference). These specified column(s) will remain untouched throughout the process. This option is helpful in scenarios requiring automatic input_cols inference, but need to avoid using specific columns, like index columns, during training or inference.

  • drop_input_cols – Optional[bool], default=False Remove input columns from output if set True. False by default.

center_

Dict[str, float] Dictionary mapping input column name to the median value for that feature.

scale_

Dict[str, float] Dictionary mapping input column name to the (scaled) interquartile range for that feature.

Scale features using statistics that are robust to outliers.

Parameters:
  • with_centering – If True, center the data before scaling. This will cause transform to raise an exception when attempted on sparse matrices, because centering them entails building a dense matrix which in common use cases is likely to be too large to fit in memory.

  • with_scaling – If True, scale the data to interquartile range.

  • quantile_range – tuple (q_min, q_max), 0.0 < q_min < q_max < 100.0, default=(25.0, 75.0) Quantile range used to calculate scale_. By default this is equal to the IQR, i.e., q_min is the first quantile and q_max is the third quantile.

  • unit_variance – If True, scale data so that normally distributed features have a variance of 1. In general, if the difference between the x-values of q_max and q_min for a standard normal distribution is greater than 1, the dataset will be scaled down. If less than 1, the dataset will be scaled up.

  • input_cols – Single or multiple input columns.

  • output_cols – Single or multiple output columns.

  • passthrough_cols – A string or a list of strings indicating column names to be excluded from any operations (such as train, transform, or inference). These specified column(s) will remain untouched throughout the process. This option is helful in scenarios requiring automatic input_cols inference, but need to avoid using specific columns, like index columns, during in training or inference.

  • drop_input_cols – Remove input columns from output if set True. False by default.

center_

dict {column_name: The median value for each feature in the training set}.

scale_

The (scaled) interquartile range for each feature in the training set.

  • snowml_only_keywords – snowml only keywords not present in sklearn.

  • sklearn_added_keyword_to_version_dict – Added keywords mapped to the sklearn versions in which they were added.

Set the parameters of this transformer.

The method works on simple transformers as well as on sklearn compatible pipelines with nested objects, once the transformer has been fit. Nested objects have parameters of the form <component>__<parameter> so that it’s possible to update each component of a nested object.
