How to convert non-numeric data to numeric value?
Any help would be appreciated. To encode non-numeric data to numeric you can use scikit-learn’s LabelEncoder. It will encode each category such as COL1’s a, b, c to integers. enc.fit () creates the corresponding integer values.
Can you use non numeric attributes in machine learning?
Currently, I have dataset with numeric as well non-numeric attributes. I am trying to remove the redundant features in the dataset using R Programming Languages. Note: Non-numeric attributes cannot be turned into binary.
Which is an example of clustering non numeric data?
For example, clustered sales data could reveal which items are often purchased together (famously, beer and diapers). If your data is completely numeric, then the k-means technique is simple and effective. But if your data contains non-numeric data (also called categorical data) then clustering is surprisingly difficult.
Can a discriminative classifier work on non numeric data?
