Method Detail

makeTransformation

public VectorTransformation makeTransformation(SparseVector ratings)

Description copied from interface: VectorNormalizer

Create a vector transformation that normalizes and denormalizes vectors with respect to the specified entity. This allows transformations to be applied multiple times to different vectors and also unapplied.

If the reference vector is empty, the returned transformation should be the identity transform. Results are undefined if the reference vector is not complete or contains NaN values.

If the normalization needs to retain a copy of the sparse vector, it will take an immutable copy.

Specified by:

makeTransformation in interface VectorNormalizer

Parameters:

ratings - The reference vector.

Returns:

A transformation built from the reference vector.
