简短的回答

这里有一个函数，可以在不使用numpy、pandas或其他包的情况下进行一次性编码。它接受一个整数、布尔值或字符串(也可能是其他类型)的列表。

import typing


def one_hot_encode(items: list) -> typing.List[list]:
    results = []
    # find the unique items (we want to unique items b/c duplicate items will have the same encoding)
    unique_items = list(set(items))
    # sort the unique items
    sorted_items = sorted(unique_items)
    # find how long the list of each item should be
    max_index = len(unique_items)

    for item in items:
        # create a list of zeros the appropriate length
        one_hot_encoded_result = [0 for i in range(0, max_index)]
        # find the index of the item
        one_hot_index = sorted_items.index(item)
        # change the zero at the index from the previous line to a one
        one_hot_encoded_result[one_hot_index] = 1
        # add the result
        results.append(one_hot_encoded_result)

    return results

例子:

one_hot_encode([2, 1, 1, 2, 5, 3])

# [[0, 1, 0, 0],
#  [1, 0, 0, 0],
#  [1, 0, 0, 0],
#  [0, 1, 0, 0],
#  [0, 0, 0, 1],
#  [0, 0, 1, 0]]

one_hot_encode([True, False, True])

# [[0, 1], [1, 0], [0, 1]]

one_hot_encode(['a', 'b', 'c', 'a', 'e'])

# [[1, 0, 0, 0], [0, 1, 0, 0], [0, 0, 1, 0], [1, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 1]]

长(er)回答

I know there are already a lot of answers to this question, but I noticed two things. First, most of the answers use packages like numpy and/or pandas. And this is a good thing. If you are writing production code, you should probably be using robust, fast algorithms like those provided in the numpy/pandas packages. But, for the sake of education, I think someone should provide an answer which has a transparent algorithm and not just an implementation of someone else's algorithm. Second, I noticed that many of the answers do not provide a robust implementation of one-hot encoding because they do not meet one of the requirements below. Below are some of the requirements (as I see them) for a useful, accurate, and robust one-hot encoding function:

单热编码函数必须:

处理各种类型的列表(例如，整数，字符串，浮点数等)作为输入 处理带有重复项的输入列表 返回与输入相对应(与输入顺序相同)的列表的列表 返回一个列表的列表，其中每个列表都尽可能短

我测试了这个问题的许多答案，其中大多数都未能满足上述要求之一。

我知道我来晚了，但是以自动方式热编码数据框架的最简单方法是使用这个函数:

def hot_encode(df):
    obj_df = df.select_dtypes(include=['object'])
    return pd.get_dummies(df, columns=obj_df.columns).values

假设在10个变量中，在数据帧中有3个分类变量，分别为cname1、cname2和cname3。 然后下面的代码将自动在新的数据框架中创建一个热编码变量。

import category_encoders as ce
encoder_var=ce.OneHotEncoder(cols=['cname1','cname2','cname3'],handle_unknown='return_nan',return_df=True,use_cat_names=True)
new_df = encoder_var.fit_transform(old_df)

方法1:你可以使用pandas的pd.get_dummies。

示例1:

import pandas as pd
s = pd.Series(list('abca'))
pd.get_dummies(s)
Out[]: 
     a    b    c
0  1.0  0.0  0.0
1  0.0  1.0  0.0
2  0.0  0.0  1.0
3  1.0  0.0  0.0

示例2:

下面将把一个给定的列转换为一个hot。使用前缀有多个假人。

import pandas as pd
        
df = pd.DataFrame({
          'A':['a','b','a'],
          'B':['b','a','c']
        })
df
Out[]: 
   A  B
0  a  b
1  b  a
2  a  c

# Get one hot encoding of columns B
one_hot = pd.get_dummies(df['B'])
# Drop column B as it is now encoded
df = df.drop('B',axis = 1)
# Join the encoded df
df = df.join(one_hot)
df  
Out[]: 
       A  a  b  c
    0  a  0  1  0
    1  b  1  0  0
    2  a  0  0  1

方法2:使用Scikit-learn

使用OneHotEncoder的优点是能够拟合一些训练数据，然后使用相同的实例对一些其他数据进行转换。我们还有handle_unknown来进一步控制编码器对未见数据的处理。

给定一个具有三个特征和四个样本的数据集，我们让编码器找到每个特征的最大值，并将数据转换为二进制one-hot编码。

>>> from sklearn.preprocessing import OneHotEncoder
>>> enc = OneHotEncoder()
>>> enc.fit([[0, 0, 3], [1, 1, 0], [0, 2, 1], [1, 0, 2]])   
OneHotEncoder(categorical_features='all', dtype=<class 'numpy.float64'>,
   handle_unknown='error', n_values='auto', sparse=True)
>>> enc.n_values_
array([2, 3, 4])
>>> enc.feature_indices_
array([0, 2, 5, 9], dtype=int32)
>>> enc.transform([[0, 1, 1]]).toarray()
array([[ 1.,  0.,  0.,  1.,  0.,  0.,  1.,  0.,  0.]])

下面是这个例子的链接:http://scikit-learn.org/stable/modules/generated/sklearn.preprocessing.OneHotEncoder.html

您可以将数据传递给catboost分类器而不进行编码。Catboost通过执行单热和目标扩展平均编码来处理分类变量本身。

它可以而且应该很简单:

class OneHotEncoder:
    def __init__(self,optionKeys):
        length=len(optionKeys)
        self.__dict__={optionKeys[j]:[0 if i!=j else 1 for i in range(length)] for j in range(length)}

用法:

ohe=OneHotEncoder(["A","B","C","D"])
print(ohe.A)
print(ohe.D)
