> Bucketizer can put NaN values into a special bucket when handleInvalid is on. but leave null values untouched.
> {code}
> import org.apache.spark.ml.feature.Bucketizer
> val data = sc.parallelize(Seq(("crackcell", null.asInstanceOf[java.lang.Double]))).toDF("name", "number")
> val bucketizer = new Bucketizer().setInputCol("number").setOutputCol("number_output").setSplits(Array(Double.NegativeInfinity, 0, 10, Double.PositiveInfinity)).setHandleInvalid("keep")
> val res = bucketizer.transform(data)
> res.show(1)
> {code}
> will output:
> {quote}
> +---------+------+-------------+
> |     name|number|number_output|
> +---------+------+-------------+
> |crackcell|  null|         null|
> +---------+------+-------------+
> {quote}
> If we change null to NaN:
> {code}
> val data2 = sc.parallelize(Seq(("crackcell", Double.NaN))).toDF("name", "number")
> data2: org.apache.spark.sql.DataFrame = [name: string, number: double]
> bucketizer.transform(data2).show(1)
> {code}
> will output:
> {quote}
> +---------+------+-------------+
> |     name|number|number_output|
> +---------+------+-------------+
> |crackcell|   NaN|          3.0|
> +---------+------+-------------+
> {quote}
> Maybe we should unify the behaviours? Is it resonable to process nulls as well? If so, maybe my code can help. :-)
