bookLabel Encoding of the Target Variable

Let's go straight to the main thing - label encoding implements everything the same as ordinal encoder, but:

  • Methods work with different data dimensions;
  • The order of the categories is not important for label encoding.

How to use this method in Python:

1234567891011121314
from sklearn.preprocessing import LabelEncoder import pandas as pd # Simple categorical variable fruits = pd.Series(['apple', 'orange', 'banana', 'banana', 'apple', 'orange', 'banana']) # Create label encoder object le = LabelEncoder() # Fit and transform the categorical variable using label encoding fruits_encoded = le.fit_transform(fruits) # Print the encoded values print(fruits_encoded)
