Featuretools提供了处理分类变量的集成功能

variable_types={"product_id": ft.variable_types.Categorical} https://docs.featuretools.com/loading_data/using_entitysets.html

但是这些应该是 strings 或 pandas.Category 与Featuretools实现最佳兼容性的类型?

编辑

另外,是否需要像中那样手动指定所有列 https://github.com/Featuretools/predict-appointment-noshow/blob/master/Tutorial.ipynb

import featuretools.variable_types as vtypes
variable_types = {'gender': vtypes.Categorical,
                  'patient_id': vtypes.Categorical,
                  'age': vtypes.Ordinal,
                  'scholarship': vtypes.Boolean,
                  'hypertension': vtypes.Boolean,
                  'diabetes': vtypes.Boolean,
                  'alcoholism': vtypes.Boolean,
                  'handicap': vtypes.Boolean,
                  'no_show': vtypes.Boolean,
                  'sms_received': vtypes.Boolean}
