This step calculates embeddings for each category using GloVe vectors provided by spaCy’s models. As similar words will have similar embeddings, we use them to cluster the categories, obtaining new categories that groups the original ones.

Usage

The following example shows how the step can be used in a recipe.

Inputs & Outputs

The following are the inputs expected by the step and the outputs it produces. These are generally columns (ds.first_name), datasets (ds or ds[["first_name", "last_name"]]) or models (referenced by name e.g. "churn-clf").

Configuration

The following parameters can be used to configure the behaviour of the step by including them in a json object as the last “input” to the step, i.e. step(..., {"param": "value", ...}) -> (output).
