# MinMaxScaler

### MinMaxScaler

transforms a dataset of Vector rows, rescaling each feature to a specific range (often \[0, 1]). It takes parameters:

min: 0.0 by default. Lower bound after transformation, shared by all features.

max: 1.0 by default. Upper bound after transformation, shared by all features.

MinMaxScaler computes summary statistics on a data set and produces a MinMaxScalerModel. The model can then transform each feature individually such that it is in the given range.

```
import org.apache.spark.ml.feature.MinMaxScaler
import org.apache.spark.ml.linalg.Vectors
val dataFrame = spark.createDataFrame(Seq(
(0, Vectors.dense(1.0, 0.1, -1.0)),
(1, Vectors.dense(2.0, 1.1, 1.0)),
(2, Vectors.dense(3.0, 10.1, 3.0))
)).toDF("id", "features")
val scaler = new MinMaxScaler()
.setInputCol("features")
.setOutputCol("scaledFeatures")
// Compute summary statistics and generate MinMaxScalerModel
val scalerModel = scaler.fit(dataFrame)
// rescale each feature to range [min, max].
val scaledData = scalerModel.transform(dataFrame)
println(s"Features scaled to range: [${scaler.getMin}, ${scaler.getMax}]")
scaledData.select("features", "scaledFeatures").show()

/*
