We will transform annual_inc, revol_bal, avg_cur_bal, bc_open_to_buy by dividing them by funded_amnt (amount of loan).

1 2 3 4 |
data_train$annual_inc = data_train$annual_inc/data_train$funded_amnt data_train$revol_bal = data_train$revol_bal/data_train$funded_amnt data_train$avg_cur_bal = data_train$avg_cur_bal/data_train$funded_amnt data_train$bc_open_to_buy = data_train$bc_open_to_buy/data_train$funded_amnt |
We can now remove the funded amount attribute.

data_train$funded_amnt = NULL |
Character Features
Let’s look at all character features we have left.
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 |
> str(data_train[getCharColumns(data_train)]) 'data.frame': 41909 obs. of 11 variables: $ term : chr " 60 months" " 60 months" " 36 months" " 36 months" ... $ sub_grade : chr "D5" "E2" "B4" "C3" ... $ emp_length : chr "4 years" "3 years" "10+ years" "3 years" ... $ home_ownership : chr "OWN" "MORTGAGE" "MORTGAGE" "MORTGAGE" ... $ verification_status : chr "Source Verified" "Source Verified" "Not Verified" "Source Verified" ... $ loan_status : chr "Fully Paid" "Fully Paid" "Fully Paid" "Fully Paid" ... $ pymnt_plan : chr "n" "n" "n" "n" ... $ purpose : chr "other" "debt_consolidation" "small_business" "debt_consolidation" ... $ initial_list_status : chr "w" "w" "w" "w" ... $ application_type : chr "Individual" "Individual" "Individual" "Individual" ... $ verification_status_joint: chr "" "" "" "" ... > |
We will remove verification_status_joint.
|
1 |
data_train$verification_status_joint = NULL |
Let us look at home_ownership data.
|
1 2 3 |
> table(data_train$home_ownership) MORTGAGE OWN RENT 21105 5091 15713 |
There are only three options, MORTGAGE, OWN and RENT.
Even though there are no other values, we will still create a filter to only take observations that have value “MORTGAGE”,“OWN”, or “RENT” as these are only values that appear.
We see there are 64 loans with pymnt_plan="y", all ended in being default.
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 |
> data_train %>% filter(pymnt_plan=="y") %>% select(pymnt_plan, loan_status) pymnt_plan loan_status 1 y Default 2 y Default 3 y Default 4 y Default 5 y Default 6 y Default 7 y Default 8 y Default 9 y Default 10 y Default 11 y Default |
However, in a dataset of 41909 records, 64 is too small a number of records to make a conclusion. For our purpose, we will remove payment_plan
|
1 |
data_train$pymnt_plan = NULL |
We will transform all character predictor features to binary dummy variables.

1 2 3 4 5 6 |
> loan_status = data_train$loan_status > table(loan_status) loan_status Default Fully Paid 12678 29231 > |
As the name implies, the dummyVars function allows you to create dummy variables – in other words it translates text data into numerical data for modeling purposes.
If you are planning on doing predictive analytics or machine learning and want to use regression or any other modeling technique that requires numerical data, you will need to transform your text data into numbers otherwise you run the risk of leaving a lot of information on the table.
