One-Hot Encoding represents categorical variables as binary vectors. Each category is underlined by a new column, represented by a binary vector with only one high (‘1’) and the rest low (‘0 ...

In the late 1930s, Claude Shannon showed that by using switches that close for "true" and open for "false," it was possible to carry out logical operations by assigning the number 1 to "true" and 0 ...

Base-64 encoding approach. The next approach, in terms of encoding/decoding complexity, is the Base-64 conversion. Developers have used this approach for a long time to encode binary data within ...

01001000 01100101 01101100 01101100 01101111 00100001. Those ones and zeros might not look like anything to you, but in binary code the numbers are actually saying “Hello!”. Any code that uses just ...

Encoding Binary and Categorical Data When encoding binary and categorical data, there are four cases you must deal with: independent (x) binary data, dependent (y) binary data, independent (x) ...
