What is Feature Engineering?
Feature engineering is the process of creating or selecting relevant
features from raw data to improve the performance of machine
learning models.
Feature engineering is the process of transforming raw data into
features that are suitable for machine learning models. In other
words, it is the process of selecting, extracting, and transforming the
most relevant features from the available data to build more accurate
and efficient machine learning models.
In the context of machine learning, features are individual measurable
properties or characteristics of the data that are used as inputs for the
learning algorithms. The goal of feature engineering is to transform the
raw data into a suitable format that captures the underlying patterns
and relationships in the data, thereby enabling the machine learning
model to make accurate predictions or classifications

Levelwise PageRank with Loop-Based Dead End Handling Strategy : SHORT REPORT ...Subhajit Sahu
Abstract — Levelwise PageRank is an alternative method of PageRank computation which decomposes the input graph into a directed acyclic block-graph of strongly connected components, and processes them in topological order, one level at a time. This enables calculation for ranks in a distributed fashion without per-iteration communication, unlike the standard method where all vertices are processed in each iteration. It however comes with a precondition of the absence of dead ends in the input graph. Here, the native non-distributed performance of Levelwise PageRank was compared against Monolithic PageRank on a CPU as well as a GPU. To ensure a fair comparison, Monolithic PageRank was also performed on a graph where vertices were split by components. Results indicate that Levelwise PageRank is about as fast as Monolithic PageRank on the CPU, but quite a bit slower on the GPU. Slowdown on the GPU is likely caused by a large submission of small workloads, and expected to be non-issue when the computation is performed on massive graphs.
9. Feature Engineering
• Feature engineering is the process of using domain knowledge to
extract features from raw data via data mining techniques.
• These features can be used to improve the performance of machine
learning algorithms.
Faculty of Information Technology, Thai - Nichi Institute of
Technology, Bangkok

10. Features
• A feature is an attribute or property shared by all of the independent
units on which analysis or prediction is to be done. Any attribute
could be a feature, as long as it is useful to the model.
• The purpose of a feature, other than being an attribute, would be
much easier to understand in the context of a problem. A feature is a
characteristic that might help when solving the problem.

11. Process of Feature Engineering
Brainstorming or testing features
Deciding what features to create
Creating features
Checking how the features work with your model
Improving your features if needed
Go back to brainstorming/creating more features until the work is done
Faculty of Information Technology, Thai - Nichi Institute of

12. Techniques in Feature Engineering
• Imputation
• Handling Outliers
• Binning
• Log Transform
• One-Hot Encoding
• Grouping Operations
• Feature Split
• Scaling
• Extracting Date
Faculty of Information Technology, Thai - Nichi Institute of
Technology, Bangkok
12
13. Imputation
• Missing values are one of the most common problems you can
encounter when you try to prepare your data for machine learning.
• The reason for the missing values might be human errors,
interruptions in the data flow, privacy concerns, and so on.
• This affects the performance of machine learning models
Faculty of Information Technology, Thai - Nichi Institute of
Technology, Bangkok
13
14. Imputation
• Dropping columns with missing values will reduce performance
• Make a threshold of 70%
• Remove columns having more than 30% missing values
Faculty of Information Technology, Thai - Nichi Institute of
Technology, Bangkok
14
15. Numerical Imputation
• Fill missing values with a constant
• Fill missing values with a statistical formula
Faculty of Information Technology, Thai - Nichi Institute of
Technology, Bangkok
15
16. Categorical imputation
• Replacing missing value with maximum occurred value in that column
Faculty of Information Technology, Thai - Nichi Institute of
Technology, Bangkok
16
17. Handling Outliers
• Best way to detect outliers is to visualize data
Faculty of Information Technology, Thai - Nichi Institute of
Technology, Bangkok
17
18. Statistical ways to handle outliers
• Standard Deviation
• Percentiles
Faculty of Information Technology, Thai - Nichi Institute of
Technology, Bangkok
18
19. Handling outliers – Standard Deviation
• If a value has a distance to the average higher than x * standard
deviation, it can be assumed as an outlier.
• x = 2 to 4 is practical. Z-score can also be used
Faculty of Information Technology, Thai - Nichi Institute of
Technology, Bangkok
19
20. Handling Outliers - Percentile
• If your data ranges from 0 to 100, your top 5% is not the values
between 96 and 100.
• Top 5% means here the values that are out of the 95th percentile of
data.
Faculty of Information Technology, Thai - Nichi Institute of
Technology, Bangkok
20
21. Binning
• Binning is done for numerical data
• Categorical data are converted to numerical format and binned
Faculty of Information Technology, Thai - Nichi Institute of
Technology, Bangkok
21
22. Binning - Example
#Numerical Binning Example
Value Bin
0-30 -> Low
31-70 -> Mid
71-100 -> High
#Categorical Binning Example
Value Bin
Spain -> Europe
Italy -> Europe
Chile -> South America
Brazil -> South America
Faculty of Information Technology, Thai - Nichi Institute of
Technology, Bangkok
22
23. Motivation of binning
• Make the model robust
• Prevent overfitting
Faculty of Information Technology, Thai - Nichi Institute of
Technology, Bangkok
23
24. Log Transform
• Logarithmic Transformation
• The data you apply log transform must have only positive values,
otherwise you receive an error.
• Also, you can add 1 to your data before transform it.
• Thus, you ensure the output of the transformation to be positive.
Faculty of Information Technology, Thai - Nichi Institute of
Technology, Bangkok
24
29. Numerical Column Grouping
• Numerical columns are grouped using sum and mean functions in
most of the cases.
Faculty of Information Technology, Thai - Nichi Institute of
Technology, Bangkok
29
30. Feature Split
• Splitting features is a good way to make them useful in terms of
machine learning.
• By extracting the utilizable parts of a column into new features:
• We enable machine learning algorithms to comprehend them.
• Make possible to bin and group them.
• Improve model performance by uncovering potential information.
Faculty of Information Technology, Thai - Nichi Institute of
Technology, Bangkok
30
32. Scaling
• In real life, it is nonsense to expect age and income columns to have
the same range.
• Scaling solves this problem.
• However, the algorithms based on distance calculations such as k-NN
or k-Means need to have scaled continuous features as model input.
Faculty of Information Technology, Thai - Nichi Institute of
Technology, Bangkok
32
33. Scaling Methods
• Normalization
• Standardization
Faculty of Information Technology, Thai - Nichi Institute of
Technology, Bangkok
33
34. Normalization
• Normalization (or min-max normalization) scale all values in a fixed
range between 0 and 1.
• This transformation does not change the distribution of the feature
and due to the decreased standard deviations, the effects of the
outliers increases.
• Therefore, before normalization, it is recommended to handle the
outliers.
Faculty of Information Technology, Thai - Nichi Institute of
Technology, Bangkok
34
36. Standardization
• Also known as z-score normalization
• Scales the values while taking into account standard deviation.
• If the standard deviation of features is different, their range also
would differ from each other.
• This reduces the effect of the outliers in the features.
Faculty of Information Technology, Thai - Nichi Institute of
Technology, Bangkok
36
38. Extracting Date
• Extracting the parts of the date into different columns: Year, month,
day, etc.
• Extracting the time period between the current date and columns in
terms of years, months, days, etc.
• Extracting some specific features from the date: Name of the
weekday, Weekend or not, holiday or not, etc.
