Preface

This book will cover the topic of feature engineering. A huge part of the data science and machine learning pipeline, feature engineering includes the ability to identify, clean, construct, and discover new characteristics of data for the purpose of interpretation and predictive analysis.

In this book, we will be covering the entire process of feature engineering, from inspection to visualization, transformation, and beyond. We will be using both basic and advanced mathematical measures to transform our data into a form that's much more digestible by machines and machine learning pipelines.

By discovering and transforming, we, as data scientists, will be able to gain a whole new perspective on our data, enhancing not only our algorithms but also our insights.
