step_measure_output_long creates a specification of a recipe

Usage

step_measure_output_long(
  recipe,
  values_to = ".measure",
  location_to = ".location",
  measures = NULL,
  role = "predictor",
  trained = FALSE,
  skip = FALSE,
  id = rand_id("measure_output_long")
)

Arguments

recipe

A recipe object. The step will be added to the sequence of operations for this recipe.

values_to

A single character string for the column containing the analytical measurement.

location_to

A single character string for the column name prefix for location columns. For 1D data, this becomes the column name (default: .location). For nD data, this becomes a prefix with dimension suffixes (e.g., .location_1, .location_2).

measures

An optional single character string specifying which measure column to output. If NULL (the default) and only one measure column exists, that column will be used. If multiple measure columns exist and measures is NULL, an error will be thrown prompting you to specify which column to output.

role

Not used by this step since no new variables are created.

trained

A logical to indicate if the quantities for preprocessing have been estimated.

skip

A logical. Should the step be skipped when the recipe is baked by bake()? While all operations are baked when prep() is run, some operations may not be able to be conducted on new data (e.g. processing the outcome variable(s)). Care should be taken when using skip = TRUE as it may affect the computations for subsequent operations.

id

A character string that is unique to this step to identify it.

Details

step that converts measures to a format with columns for the measurement and the corresponding location (i.e., "long" format).

This step is designed convert analytical measurements from their internal data structure to a long format with explicit location columns.

For 1D data, the output has two columns: the measurement value and a single location column.

For n-dimensional data (2D, 3D, etc.), the output has n+1 columns: the measurement value and n location columns named with the location_to prefix followed by dimension numbers (e.g., .location_1, .location_2).
