Inline comments:
In `@docs/source/cuml-accel/compatibility.rst`:
- Around line 507-510: Update the “Additional notes” section in the
compatibility documentation to state that when drop is configured and
handle_unknown="ignore", transform emits a UserWarning for unknown categories,
preserving the existing notes and documenting this expected behavior.
In `@python/cuml/cuml_accel_tests/upstream/scikit-learn/xfail-list.yaml`:
- Line 870: Correct the spelling in the xfail reason by changing “treat's” to
“treats,” while leaving the rest of the reason unchanged.
In `@python/cuml/cuml/preprocessing/encoders.py`:
- Around line 523-527: Update the warnings.warn call in the encoder transform
path to pass stacklevel=2, so the warning points to the caller’s transform
invocation while preserving the existing message.
- Around line 328-339: Update _params_to_cpu so drop preserves None and string
values unchanged, while _as_numpy conversion is applied only to array-like drop
values; keep the existing categories and other parameter handling unchanged.
- Around line 315-319: Update the feature_name_combiner validation to raise
UnsupportedOnGPU whenever model.feature_name_combiner is not exactly the string
"concat", including callable and other non-string values. Preserve the existing
underscore-concatenation behavior in get_feature_names_out.
Apply the same fix in `@docs/source/cuml-accel/compatibility.rst` at line 505:
Documents the same unsupported-combiner fallback behavior.

Refactored `check_cudf` to support mixed-dtype array-like inputs, so each column may end up with a different inferred dtype. This is useful for the encoders where an object dtype input array may have multiple disparate dtype columns.
- Enforce that `None` and `NaN` in inputs are treated the same - Adds warning on transform if `drop` is configured when unknown values are encountered. This matches the sklearn behavior.

OneHotEncodersupport tocuml.accel.This required a few additional fixes:
check_cudfnow supports inferring disparate column dtypes when an array-like object or object-dtype array is provided. This is useful for the encoders (the only consumer ofcheck_cudf) since sklearn's interface should support object dtype arrays with mixed column types. There's no change in behavior for other inputs (e.g. existing dataframe-like inputs or other non-object arrays).OneHotEncoderwill now warn whenhandle_unknown="ignore"anddrop is not Noneif unknown values are found intransform. This is what sklearn does, since this case will result in all-zero values (which may not be perfectly invertible, or may yield numeric issues later on). Previously no warning was raised.OneHotEncodernow more strictly treatsNoneandNaNinput values identically. This is the only real sane behavior we can adopt. sklearn treats these as different values, which is confusing when dealing with modern dataframe APIs. I am happy with this slight incompatibility and think it's the right decision forcuml.There are a number of xfailed sklearn tests. These mostly fall into 3 categories:
NaNandNoneidentically. I'm fine with this and think this is the right choice.Sdtype). I find it a bit odd that sklearn supports this, afaict this is a legacy behavior added before the python ecosystem did a better job of differentiatingstrandbytesin python 3. I don't think we need to emulate this behavior, and it's tricky to fall back for.transformwill still be identical, we just don't always infer the same dtype that sklearn uses since we go throughcudfto handle encoding. Again, I'm not worried about this one.Fixes #8514.
