Custom Transformers and Extensibility
When you need to perform a data transformation that is not available in scikit-learn’s built-in suite, you can create your own transformer by following a few essential requirements. To make your custom transformer compatible with scikit-learn workflows, it must implement both the fit and transform methods. The fit method should learn any parameters needed from the data (even if there are none, it should still return self), while the transform method applies the actual transformation to the input data. For best compatibility, your transformer should inherit from both BaseEstimator and TransformerMixin, which provide helpful default implementations and ensure your class works seamlessly with pipeline utilities.

With this approach, your custom transformer can be used in any place where a built-in transformer like StandardScaler would fit. Since it follows the same conventions — implementing fit and transform, and inheriting from BaseEstimator and TransformerMixin — you can drop it into a pipeline, combine it with other preprocessing steps, and use cross-validation just as you would with scikit-learn’s native tools. This interoperability is a core advantage of the scikit-learn API, letting you extend workflows with your own logic while preserving a consistent and reliable interface.
