# Preprocessing
## The Big Picture
`linfa-preprocessing` is a crate in the [`linfa`](https://crates.io/crates/linfa) ecosystem, an effort to create a toolkit for classical Machine Learning implemented in pure Rust, akin to Python's `scikit-learn`.
## Current state
`linfa-preprocessing` provides a pure Rust implementation of:
* Standard scaling
* Min-max scaling
* Max Abs Scaling
* Normalization
* Count vectorization
* TfIdf vectorization
* Whitening
## Examples
There are various usage examples in the `examples/` directory. To run, use:
```bash
$ cargo run --release --example count_vectorization
```
```bash
$ cargo run --release --example tfidf_vectorization
```
```bash
$ cargo run --release --example scaling
```
```bash
$ cargo run --release --example whitening
```
