class VectorAssembler extends Transformer with HasInputCols with HasOutputCol with HasHandleInvalid with DefaultParamsWritable

A feature transformer that merges multiple columns into a vector column.

This requires one pass over the entire dataset. In case we need to infer column lengths from the data we require an additional call to the 'first' Dataset method, see 'handleInvalid' parameter.

    Param for how to handle invalid data (NULL values).

    Param for how to handle invalid data (NULL values). Options are 'skip' (filter out rows with invalid data), 'error' (throw an error), or 'keep' (return relevant number of NaN in the output). Column lengths are taken from the size of ML Attribute Group, which can be set using VectorSizeHint in a pipeline before VectorAssembler. Column lengths can also be inferred from first rows of the data since it is safe to do so but only in case of 'error' or 'skip'. Default: "error"

    Check transform validity and derive the output schema from the input schema.

    We check validity for interactions between parameters during transformSchema and raise an exception if any parameter value is invalid. Parameter value checks which do not depend on other parameters are handled by Param.validate().

    Typical implementation should first conduct verification on schema change and parameter validity, including complex parameter interaction checks.
