Feature/experiment validation #289

Closed jduerholt closed 1 year ago

jduerholt commented 1 year ago

This PR adds the possibility to pass as experiments dataframe, a frame in which the dtypes are not yet correct (for example all floats as strings) and still to validate/convert it into the desired format depending on the used feature types.

Note that we have some overlaps between CategoricalInput/ContinuousInput and CategoricalOutput/ContinuousOutput. This should be resolved in a seperate PR by adding some middle layer classes to prevent code dublication.
