This is a really impressive project. Do you think you would add data cleaning commands? How do you think you would handle datasets that are only available to academics or other restrictions?
On your front page you should have the owner/dataset name instead of just the dataset name so I wouldn't have to click through to find the owner name.
- kevinemoore 9y agoWe've been thinking of making a Python build file to make it easier add richer transformations than the simple file->DataFrame that runs by default. We'd love suggestions and input on the types of transformations that would be most useful.
- akarve 9y agoData cleaning is so necessary. `build.yml` already supports a limited set of feature (through pandas). In addition to custom data transformations, any "out of the box" cleaning functions you'd like? In the spirit of dplyr? We've looked at e.g. scikit feature for normalization, 1-of-n encoding, etc.
- zitterbewegung 9y agoHow about deduplication. Also table / dictionary lookup . And string replacement and regex replacement .
- akarve 9y agoGot it. If you'd like me to ping you once we have custom build hooks: aneesh at quiltdata dot io. Have you tried Luigi or Bonobo for data cleaning?
- zitterbewegung 9y agoNo I haven't I think I just did it myself I'll look into that .
