Is there any way to specify the label encoding in
preprocessing.LabelEncoder() ?
My targets are in string and I want to convert them into numeric values.
preprocessing.LabelEncoder() encodes always as 0,1,2 while I would like
specify the numeric code.
target_str = ['setosa', 'versicolor', 'virginica', 'setosa', 'setosa',
'versicolor']
le = preprocessing.LabelEncoder()
target_int =le.fit(target_str).transform(target_str)
target_int
Out[10]: array([0, 1, 2, 0, 0, 1])
I would like to specify targets as
target_code = {'setosa':100, 'versicolor': 150, 'virginica':155}
and want to convert target_str to target_int as
target_int
Out[11]: array([100, 150, 155, 100, 100, 150])
Thanks
