-- | Generic encoding of records
--   
--   Generic encoding of records. It currently provides a single,
--   polymorphic function to encode sum types (i.e. categorical variables)
--   as one-hot vectors.
@package record-encode
@version 0.2


-- | This library provides generic machinery (via GHC.Generics and
--   `generics-sop`) to encode values of some algebraic type as points in a
--   vector space.
--   
--   Processing datasets that have one or more categorical variables (which
--   in other words are values of a sum type) typically requires a series
--   of boilerplate transformations, and the <a>encodeOneHot</a> function
--   provided here does precisely that.
--   
--   <h2>Internals</h2>
--   
--   This library makes use of generic programming to analyze both values
--   and types (see the internal Data.Record.Encode.Generics module).
--   
--   Initially, it was relying on Template Haskell to analyze <i>types</i>,
--   using the the instance generation machinery explained here:
--   <a>https://markkarpov.com/tutorial/th.html#example-1-instance-generation</a>
module Data.Record.Encode

-- | Computes the one-hot encoding of a value of a sum type.
--   
--   The type of the input value must be an instance of <a>Generic</a>
--   (from GHC.Generics) <i>and</i> of <a>Generic</a> (from the
--   `generics-sop` library).
