Quasiorthonormal encoding (QOE) is a generalization of the one-hot encoding and exploits the fact that in high dimensional vector spaces, two random vectors are almost always orthogonal. The concept originated with Kůrková and Kainen almost 25 years ago. The principle is the same as one-hot encoding when you view …

While most popular machine learning methods such as deep learning require numerical data as input, categorical data is very common practice. For example, a person's vitals could be a combination of both, they could include height, weight (numerical) and gender, race (categorical). The challenge is to convert the categorical …
