LogTransformer

LogTransformer

class LogTransformer(offset=0, scale=1)[source]

Natural logarithm transformation.

The Natural logarithm transformation can be used to make the data more normally distributed and stabilize its variance.

Transforms each data point x to log(scale *(x+offset))

Parameters:
offsetfloat , default = 0

Additive constant applied to all the data.

scalefloat , default = 1

Multiplicative scaling constant applied to all the data.

Attributes:
is_fitted

Whether fit has been called.

See also

BoxCoxTransformer

Applies Box-Cox power transformation. Can help normalize data and compress variance of the series.

sktime.transformations.exponent.ExponentTransformer

Transform input data by raising it to an exponent. Can help compress variance of series if a fractional exponent is supplied.

sktime.transformations.exponent.SqrtTransformer

Transform input data by taking its square root. Can help compress variance of input series.

Notes

The log transformation is applied as \(ln(y)\).

Examples

>>> from sktime.transformations.boxcox import LogTransformer
>>> from sktime.datasets import load_airline
>>> y = load_airline()
>>> transformer = LogTransformer()
>>> y_hat = transformer.fit_transform(y)
