Convert String data to Numeric format so we can process the data in Apache Spark ML Library. Welcome to this project on predicting the Cellular Localization Sites of Proteins in Yest in Apache Spark Machine Learning using Databricks platform community edition server which allows you to execute your spark code, free of cost on their server just by registering through email id. In this project, we explore Apache Spark and Machine Learning on the Databricks platform. I am a firm believer that the best way to learn is by doing. That's why I haven't included any purely theoretical lectures in this tutorial: you will learn everything on the way and be able to put it into practice straight away.
