min_max_scaler module

Scaling a variable with a geometrical linear transformation.

The MinMaxScaler class implements the MinMax scaling method applying to some parameter \(z\):

\[\bar{z} := \text{offset} + \text{coefficient}\times z = \frac{z-\text{min}(z)}{(\text{max}(z)-\text{min}(z))},\]

where \(\text{offset}=-\text{min}(z)/(\text{max}(z)-\text{min}(z))\) and \(\text{coefficient}=1/(\text{max}(z)-\text{min}(z))\).

In the MinMax scaling method, the scaling operation linearly transforms the original variable \(z\) such that the minimum of the original data corresponds to 0 and the maximum to 1.

Warning

When \(\text{min}(z)=\text{max}(z)\neq 0\), we use \(\bar{z}=\frac{z}{\text{min}(z)}-0.5\). When \(\text{min}(z)=\text{max}(z)=0\), we use \(\bar{z}=z+0.5\).
