Description

Right now, sklearn.preprocessing.PowerTransformer implements the Box-Cox transform (#10210), which only works on positive, nonzero data. The Yeo-Johnson transform is an alternative power transformation that supports negative and zero values. Yeo and Johnson also proposed a more robust technique for selecting the transformation parameter (paper linked below), which may be a good alternative to maximum likelihood.

Are we still expecting this to appear, @ericchang00?

Definitely - I was actually just reading the paper again yesterday. It's a substantial piece of work, so it may take around a month before we can submit a PR. Is that fine?

@jnothman Hey Joel - school just finished so we'll be able to dedicate time to this for real this time. Sorry for the linger. We'll submit a PR in 2-3 weeks.
