[jira] [Commented] (SPARK-17987) ML Evaluator fails to handle null values in the dataset
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-17987?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel=15587530#comment-15587530 ] bo song commented on SPARK-17987: - There is a common case in cross validation, suppose f1 is a categorical predictor, its categories are (0,1,2,3,4). As you all know, cross validation splits data into training and testing data sets randomly, suppose the training data contains only (0,1,2) for f1, when the testing data do forecasts for (3, 4), almost algorithms could produce null predictions for this case. I would like to introduce an option into Spark, its default behavior is still an exception thrown for missing null values, caller can change it to exclude missing values explicitly, he knows the changes/risks and wants an result instead of an exception. > ML Evaluator fails to handle null values in the dataset > --- > > Key: SPARK-17987 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-17987 > Project: Spark > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: ML >Affects Versions: 1.6.2, 2.0.1 >Reporter: bo song > > Take the RegressionEvaluator as an example, when the predictionCol is null in > a row, en exception "scala.MatchEror" will be thrown.

bo song created SPARK-17987: --- Summary: ML Evaluator fails to handle null values in the dataset Key: SPARK-17987 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-17987 Project: Spark Issue Type: Improvement Components: ML Affects Versions: 2.0.1, 1.6.2 Reporter: bo song Take the RegressionEvaluator as an example, when the predictionCol is null in a row, en exception "scala.MatchEror" will be thrown. The missing null prediction is a common case, for example when an predictor is missing, or its value is out of bound, almost machine learning models could not produce correct predictions, then null predictions would be returned. Evaluators should handle the null values instead of an exception thrown, the common way to handle missing null values is to ignore them. Besides of the null value, the NAN value need to be handled correctly too. Those three evaluators RegressionEvaluator, BinaryClassificationEvaluator and MulticlassClassificationEvaluator have the same problem. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332) - To unsubscribe, e-mail: issues-unsubscr...@spark.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: issues-h...@spark.apache.org
