Numerical Features

Back to Feature Engineering

Transforming numeric data for optimal model performance. Many algorithms are sensitive to feature scale and distribution.

Techniques

  • Standardization — zero mean, unit variance (z-score)
  • Normalization — scale to [0, 1] range (min-max)
  • Binning — convert continuous to discrete ranges
  • Log Transforms — handle skewed distributions
