Scaling Methods
Description
Collection of Different Scaling Methods.
Usage
scaling(Xtrain,Xtest=NULL, method = "autoscaling")
Arguments
Xtrain |
a matrix of data (training data set). |
Xtest |
a matrix of data (test data set).(by default = NULL). |
method |
the scaling method to be used. Choices are " |
Details
A number of different scaling methods are provided:
"
none": no scaling method is applied."
centering": centers the mean to zero."
autoscaling": centers the mean to zero and scales data by dividing each variable by the variance."
rangescaling": centers the mean to zero and scales data by dividing each variable by the difference between the minimum and the maximum value."
paretoscaling": centers the mean to zero and scales data by dividing each variable by the square root of the standard deviation. Unit scaling divides each variable by the standard deviation so that each variance equal to 1.
Value
The function returns a list with 1 item or 2 items (if a test data set is present):
newXtrain |
a scaled matrix (training data set). |
newXtest |
a scale matrix (test data set). |
