Applies the bestNormalize function to rows of a matrix

Applies an appropriate normalisation method to each feature (row) in a matrix, via the bestNormalize function from the bestNormalize package.

Usage

transform_bestNormalise_auto(mat, return_matrix_only = FALSE, ...)

Arguments

mat

Numeric matrix.

return_matrix_only

Logical, should only the transformed matrix be returned? If TRUE, the function will return a matrix. If FALSE, the function instead returns a list with the transformed data and potentially other information relevant to the transformation. Default value is FALSE.

...

Further arguments passed to the bestNormalize function.

Value

Depending on the return_matrix_only, either a matrix of transformed data, or a list with the following elements:

• transformed_data: matrix of the transformed data;

• info_transformation: A named list with one element per feature (row), giving details of the transformation applied to the feature (see output of bestNormalize).
