Class LabelEncoder (2.30.0)

LabelEncoder(
    min_frequency: typing.Optional[int] = None,
    max_categories: typing.Optional[int] = None,
)

Encode target labels with value between 0 and n_classes-1.

This transformer should be used to encode target values, i.e. y, and not the input X.

Parameters
Name Description
model_name str

The name of the model.

replace bool, default False

Determine whether to replace if the model already exists. Default to False.

transform

transform(y)
