Spark异常：无法将空值组装。

Question

我希望使用 StandardScaler 对特征进行归一化处理。

以下是我的代码：

val Array(trainingData, testData) = dataset.randomSplit(Array(0.7,0.3))
val vectorAssembler = new VectorAssembler().setInputCols(inputCols).setOutputCol("features").transform(trainingData)   
val stdscaler = new StandardScaler().setInputCol("features").setOutputCol("scaledFeatures").setWithStd(true).setWithMean(false).fit(vectorAssembler)

但是当我尝试使用StandardScaler时，它抛出了一个异常。

VectorAssembler有什么问题吗？

我检查了VectorAssembler的几行代码，看起来没问题。

vectorAssembler.take(5)

Answer 1

Spark >= 2.4

自 Spark 2.4 版本起，VectorAssembler 继承了 HasHandleInvalid。这意味着你可以skip：

assembler.setHandleInvalid("skip").transform(df).show

+---+---+---------+
| x1| x2| features|
+---+---+---------+
|3.0|4.0|[3.0,4.0]|
+---+---+---------+

保留（请注意，机器学习算法可能无法正确处理此项）：

assembler.setHandleInvalid("keep").transform(df).show

+----+----+---------+
|  x1|  x2| features|
+----+----+---------+
| 1.0|null|[1.0,NaN]|
|null| 2.0|[NaN,2.0]|
| 3.0| 4.0|[3.0,4.0]|
+----+----+---------+

或默认为error。

Spark < 2.4

VectorAssembler没有任何问题。Spark的Vector不能包含null值。

import org.apache.spark.ml.feature.VectorAssembler

val df = Seq(
  (Some(1.0), None), (None, Some(2.0)), (Some(3.0), Some(4.0))
).toDF("x1", "x2")

val assembler = new VectorAssembler()
  .setInputCols(df.columns).setOutputCol("features")

assembler.transform(df).show(3)

org.apache.spark.SparkException: Failed to execute user defined function($anonfun$3: (struct<x1:double,x2:double>) => vector)
...
Caused by: org.apache.spark.SparkException: Values to assemble cannot be null.

空值对于机器学习算法没有意义，也不能使用 scala.Double 表示。

您必须删除以下内容之一：

assembler.transform(df.na.drop).show(2)

+---+---+---------+
| x1| x2| features|
+---+---+---------+
|3.0|4.0|[3.0,4.0]|
+---+---+---------+

或填充/插补（另请参见用平均值替换缺失值 - Spark Dataframe）：

// For example with averages
val replacements: Map[String,Any] = Map("x1" -> 2.0, "x2" -> 3.0)
assembler.transform(df.na.fill(replacements)).show(3)

+---+---+---------+
| x1| x2| features|
+---+---+---------+
|1.0|3.0|[1.0,3.0]|
|2.0|2.0|[2.0,2.0]|
|3.0|4.0|[3.0,4.0]|
+---+---+---------+

nulls（空值）。

讲解得很清楚。在将列收集到一个“features”列之前，很容易忘记调用诸如df = df.na.fill(0)的方法，以便在正确缩放之后进行操作。 - Quetzalcoatl
