Bases: BaseTransformer

Factor Analysis (FA) For more details on this class, see sklearn.decomposition.FactorAnalysis

input_cols: Optional[Union[str, List[str]]]

A string or list of strings representing column names that contain features. If this parameter is not specified, all columns in the input DataFrame except the columns specified by label_cols, sample_weight_col, and passthrough_cols parameters are considered input columns. Input columns can also be set after initialization with the set_input_cols method.

label_cols: Optional[Union[str, List[str]]]

This parameter is optional and will be ignored during fit. It is present here for API consistency by convention.

output_cols: Optional[Union[str, List[str]]]

A string or list of strings representing column names that will store the output of predict and transform operations. The length of output_cols must match the expected number of output columns from the specific predictor or transformer class used. If you omit this parameter, output column names are derived by adding an OUTPUT_ prefix to the label column names for supervised estimators, or OUTPUT_<IDX>for unsupervised estimators. These inferred output column names work for predictors, but output_cols must be set explicitly for transformers. In general, explicitly specifying output column names is clearer, especially if you don’t specify the input column names. To transform in place, pass the same names for input_cols and output_cols. be set explicitly for transformers. Output columns can also be set after initialization with the set_output_cols method.

sample_weight_col: Optional[str]

A string representing the column name containing the sample weights. This argument is only required when working with weighted datasets. Sample weight column can also be set after initialization with the set_sample_weight_col method.

passthrough_cols: Optional[Union[str, List[str]]]

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. Passthrough columns can also be set after initialization with the set_passthrough_cols method.

drop_input_cols: Optional[bool], default=False

If set, the response of predict(), transform() methods will not contain input columns.

n_components: int, default=None

Dimensionality of latent space, the number of components of X that are obtained after transform. If None, n_components is set to the number of features.

tol: float, default=1e-2

Stopping tolerance for log-likelihood increase.

copy: bool, default=True

Whether to make a copy of X. If False, the input X gets overwritten during fitting.

max_iter: int, default=1000

Maximum number of iterations.

noise_variance_init: array-like of shape (n_features,), default=None

The initial guess of the noise variance for each feature. If None, it defaults to np.ones(n_features).

svd_method: {‘lapack’, ‘randomized’}, default=’randomized’

Which SVD method to use. If ‘lapack’ use standard SVD from scipy.linalg, if ‘randomized’ use fast randomized_svd function. Defaults to ‘randomized’. For most applications ‘randomized’ will be sufficiently precise while providing significant speed gains. Accuracy can also be improved by setting higher values for iterated_power. If this is not sufficient, for maximum precision you should choose ‘lapack’.

iterated_power: int, default=3

Number of iterations for the power method. 3 by default. Only used if svd_method equals ‘randomized’.

rotation: {‘varimax’, ‘quartimax’}, default=None

If not None, apply the indicated rotation. Currently, varimax and quartimax are implemented. See “The varimax criterion for analytic rotation in factor analysis” H. F. Kaiser, 1958.

random_state: int or RandomState instance, default=0

Only used when svd_method equals ‘randomized’. Pass an int for reproducible results across multiple function calls. See Glossary.
