# Feature Engineering Cookbook — Feature Engineering Techniques Catalog

Transformation techniques by data type, feature selection methods, and feature store design guide.

## Numeric Transformations

### Scaling

| Method | Formula | Suitable | Not Suitable |
|--------|---------|----------|-------------|
| StandardScaler | (x - μ) / σ | Normal distribution, SVM, logistic regression | Sensitive to outliers |
| MinMaxScaler | (x - min) / (max - min) | [0,1] required, neural networks | Sensitive to outliers |
| RobustScaler | (x - Q2) / (Q3 - Q1) | When outliers exist | — |
| PowerTransformer | Box-Cox / Yeo-Johnson | Highly skewed distributions | Negative values (Box-Cox) |
