This is especially true when we are dealing with textual data or very large categorical variables (for example, variables storing website names in programmatic advertising). As you learn from batches of examples and as you unfold categories or words, you will see that each one is an appropriate and exclusive variable. You may find it difficult to handle the challenge of variety and the unpredictability of large streams of data. Scikit-learn provides you with a simple and fast way to implement the hashing trick and completely forget the problem of defining in advance of a rigid variable structure.
The hashing trick uses hash functions and sparse matrices in order to ...
