Feature Request: Leave one out encoding #53

Hi,

I have seen Owen Zhang( Kaggle #1) explaining how Leave one out encoding is useful for categorical encoding. Could you please review the usefulness of this technique and add it to the library?

code sample

Hello ! Nice idea :) I will try do it at the end of the year... also encoding text features would be very useful !

Hello, thanks for reporting this issue. I will close it since this feature will be added in a next release (MLBox 1.0.0 probably)
