public class Pipeline
extends Estimator<PipelineModel>

:: Experimental :: A simple pipeline, which acts as an estimator. A Pipeline consists of a sequence of stages, each of which is either an Estimator or a Transformer. When fit(org.apache.spark.sql.DataFrame) is called, the stages are executed in order. If a stage is an Estimator, its Estimator.fit(org.apache.spark.sql.DataFrame, org.apache.spark.ml.param.ParamPair, org.apache.spark.ml.param.ParamPair...) method will be called on the input dataset to fit a model. Then the model, which is a transformer, will be used to transform the dataset as the input to the next stage. If a stage is a Transformer, its Transformer.transform(org.apache.spark.sql.DataFrame, org.apache.spark.ml.param.ParamPair, org.apache.spark.ml.param.ParamPair...) method will be called to produce the dataset for the next stage. The fitted model from a Pipeline is an PipelineModel, which consists of fitted models and transformers, corresponding to the pipeline stages. If there are no stages, the pipeline acts as an identity transformer.

setStages

public Pipeline setStages(PipelineStage[] value)

getStages

public PipelineStage[] getStages()

validateParams

public void validateParams()

Description copied from interface: Params

Validates parameter values stored internally. Raise an exception if any parameter value is invalid.

This only needs to check for interactions between parameters. Parameter value checks which do not depend on other parameters are handled by Param.validate(). This method does not handle input/output column parameters; those are checked during schema validation.

fit

public PipelineModel fit(DataFrame dataset)

Fits the pipeline to the input dataset with additional parameters. If a stage is an Estimator, its Estimator.fit(org.apache.spark.sql.DataFrame, org.apache.spark.ml.param.ParamPair, org.apache.spark.ml.param.ParamPair...) method will be called on the input dataset to fit a model. Then the model, which is a transformer, will be used to transform the dataset as the input to the next stage. If a stage is a Transformer, its Transformer.transform(org.apache.spark.sql.DataFrame, org.apache.spark.ml.param.ParamPair, org.apache.spark.ml.param.ParamPair...) method will be called to produce the dataset for the next stage. The fitted model from a Pipeline is an PipelineModel, which consists of fitted models and transformers, corresponding to the pipeline stages. If there are no stages, the output model acts as an identity transformer.

Specified by:

fit in class Estimator<PipelineModel>

Parameters:

dataset - input dataset

Returns:

fitted pipeline

copy

public Pipeline copy(ParamMap extra)

Description copied from interface: Params

Creates a copy of this instance with the same UID and some extra params. Subclasses should implement this method and set the return type properly.

Specified by:

copy in interface Params

Specified by:

copy in class Estimator<PipelineModel>

Parameters:

extra - (undocumented)

Returns:

transformSchema

public StructType transformSchema(StructType schema)

Description copied from class: PipelineStage

:: DeveloperApi ::

Derives the output schema from the input schema.

Specified by:

transformSchema in class PipelineStage

Parameters:

schema - (undocumented)

Returns:
