Transforms

Data wrangling and mapping from one schema to another.
Data wrangling
One of the key tools in DataVec is transformations. DataVec helps the user map a dataset from one schema to another, and provides a list of operations to convert types, format data, and convert a 2D dataset to sequence data.
Building a transform process
A transform process requires a Schema to successfully transform data. Both schema and transform process classes come with a helper Builder class which are useful for organizing code and avoiding complex constructors.
When both are combined together they look like the sample code below. Note how inputDataSchema is passed into the Builder constructor. Your transform process will fail to compile without it.
import org.datavec.api.transform.TransformProcess;
​
TransformProcess tp = new TransformProcess.Builder(inputDataSchema)
    .removeColumns("CustomerID","MerchantID")
    .filter(new ConditionFilter(new CategoricalColumnCondition("MerchantCountryCode", ConditionOp.NotInSet, new HashSet<>(Arrays.asList("USA","CAN")))))
    .conditionalReplaceValueTransform(
        "TransactionAmountUSD",     //Column to operate on
        new DoubleWritable(0.0),    //New value to use, when the condition is satisfied
        new DoubleColumnCondition("TransactionAmountUSD",ConditionOp.LessThan, 0.0)) //Condition: amount < 0.0
    .stringToTimeTransform("DateTimeString","YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss.SSS", DateTimeZone.UTC)
    .renameColumn("DateTimeString", "DateTime")
    .transform(new DeriveColumnsFromTimeTransform.Builder("DateTime").addIntegerDerivedColumn("HourOfDay", DateTimeFieldType.hourOfDay()).build())
    .removeColumns("DateTime")
    .build();
Executing a transformation
Different "backends" for executors are available. Using the tp transform process above, here's how you can execute it locally using plain DataVec.
import org.datavec.local.transforms.LocalTransformExecutor;
​
List<List<Writable>> processedData = LocalTransformExecutor.execute(originalData, tp);
Debugging
Each operation in a transform process represents a "step" in schema changes. Sometimes, the resulting transformation is not the intended result. You can debug this by printing each step in the transform tp with the following:
//Now, print the schema after each time step:
int numActions = tp.getActionList().size();
​
for(int i=0; i<numActions; i++ ){
    System.out.println("\n\n==================================================");
    System.out.println("-- Schema after step " + i + " (" + tp.getActionList().get(i) + ") --");
​
    System.out.println(tp.getSchemaAfterStep(i));
}
Available transformations and conversions
TransformProcess
​[source]​
A TransformProcess defines an ordered list of transformations to be executed on some data
getFinalSchema
public Schema getFinalSchema()
Get the action list that this transform process will execute
return
getSchemaAfterStep
public Schema getSchemaAfterStep(int step)
Return the schema after executing all steps up to and including the specified step. Steps are indexed from 0: so getSchemaAfterStep(0) is after one transform has been executed.

return Schema of the data, after that (and all prior) steps have been executed
toJson
public String toJson()
Execute the full sequence of transformations for a single example. May return null if example is filtered NOTE: Some TransformProcess operations cannot be done on examples individually.
