\title{Centering numeric data}
\usage{
step_center(
recipe,
...,
role = NA,
trained = FALSE,
means = NULL,
na_rm = TRUE,
skip = FALSE,
id = rand_id("center")
)
}
\arguments{
\item{recipe}{A recipe object. The step will be added to the
sequence of operations for this recipe.}
\item{...}{One or more selector functions to choose variables
for this step. See \code{\link[=selections]{selections()}} for more details.}
\item{role}{Not used by this step since no new variables are
created.}
\item{trained}{A logical to indicate if the quantities for
preprocessing have been estimated.}
\item{means}{A named numeric vector of means. This is
\code{NULL} until computed by \code{\link[=prep]{prep()}}.}
\item{na_rm}{A logical value indicating whether \code{NA}
values should be removed during computations.}
\item{skip}{A logical. Should the step be skipped when the
recipe is baked by \code{\link[=bake]{bake()}}? While all operations are baked
when \code{\link[=prep]{prep()}} is run, some operations may not be able to be
conducted on new data (e.g. processing the outcome variable(s)).
Care should be taken when using \code{skip = TRUE} as it may affect
the computations for subsequent operations.}
\item{id}{A character string that is unique to this step to identify it.}
}
\value{
An updated version of \code{recipe} with the new step added to the
sequence of any existing operations.
}
\description{
\code{step_center} creates a \emph{specification} of a recipe
step that will normalize numeric data to have a mean of zero.
}
\details{
Centering data means that the average of a variable is
subtracted from the data. \code{step_center} estimates the
variable means from the data used in the \code{training}
argument of \code{prep.recipe}. \code{bake.recipe} then applies
the centering to new data sets using these means.
}
\section{Tidying}{
When you \code{\link[=tidy.recipe]{tidy()}} this step, a tibble with columns
\code{terms} (the selectors or variables selected) and \code{value} (the means)
is returned.
}
\section{Case weights}{
This step performs an unsupervised operation that can utilize case weights.
As a result, case weights are only used with frequency weights. For more
information, see the documentation in \link{case_weights} and the examples on
\code{tidymodels.org}.
