Can anyone explain me StandardScaler?

Question

I am unable to understand the page of the StandardScaler in the documentation of the sklearn.

Can anyone explain this to me in simple terms?

Answer 1

StandardScaler is used to transform your data such that its distribution will have a mean value 0 and a standard deviation of 1. It means that it fits the entire data in a particular range, so that data gets normalized. It makes model training faster due to small values.

 

Hope this answer helps.
