How do I input numerical features in item features?
Can any one help me on how should one input numerical features?
I'm very interested in that issue as well.
You can't treat numbers as features, but features can be used to set up categorical variables that characterize users and items.
It seems to me that if value ranges exist, you can divide them into intervals and give the range they go into as features, but that's not a very good solution for me either.
I'm waiting for the developers to add an answer to this question. In particular, I hope they can give us a method to solve this.
