Why it matters

  • Ensuring that the values of a feature are always within a defined range is important to validate the hypotheses around the data. For example, for a feature such as Age, negative values would be invalid and signal an issue with the data collection/ingestion process.
  • Values outside the expected range can also be a sign of data drift.
  • For some categorical features, it is important to ensure that the values are always within the expected categories.
