Description

Hi there,

datacleaner seems quite interesting. Cleaning Data is always annoying and tools are missing.

If I have seen it right, you impute NaNs. You could also consider to replace +/- Infs by Max/Min of the respective column.

We have implemented that In the tsfresh impute function. Maybe you can use some of the code there.
