sklearn.utils._safe_indexing

sklearn.utils._safe_indexing(X, indices, *, axis=0) [source]

Return rows, items or columns of X using indices.

Warning

This utility is documented, but private. This means that backward compatibility might be broken without any deprecation cycle.

Parameters
Xarray-like, sparse-matrix, list, pandas.DataFrame, pandas.Series

Data from which to sample rows, items or columns. list are only supported when axis=0.

indicesbool, int, str, slice, array-like
  • If axis=0, boolean and integer array-like, integer slice, and scalar integer are supported.
  • If axis=1:
    • to select a single column, indices can be of int type for all X types and str only for dataframe. The selected subset will be 1D, unless X is a sparse matrix in which case it will be 2D.
    • to select multiples columns, indices can be one of the following: list, array, slice. The type used in these containers can be one of the following: int, ‘bool’ and str. However, str is only supported when X is a dataframe. The selected subset will be 2D.
axisint, default=0

The axis along which X will be subsampled. axis=0 will select rows while axis=1 will select columns.

Returns
subset

Subset of X on axis 0 or 1.

Notes

CSR, CSC, and LIL sparse matrices are supported. COO sparse matrices are not supported.
