> Project: Apache MADlib
> Issue Type: Improvement

> Follow on to this commit:
> Minibatch Preprocessor for Deep learning
> https://github.com/apache/madlib/commit/8de32ede33c48d2f4a440f0f639c94a277a359c1
> The output table produced by the deep mini-batch preprocessor contains the
> following columns:
> {code}
> ...
> dependent_varname FLOAT8[]. Packed array of dependent variables. If the
> dependent variable in the source table is categorical, the preprocessor will
> one-hot encode it.
> independent_varname FLOAT8[]. Packed array of independent variables.
> ...
> {code}
> This is misleading because these columns contain values not names, so we
> should rename these columns to:
> {code}
> ...
> dependent_var
> independent_var
> ...
> {code}
> The output summary table contains the following columns:
> {code}
> dependent_varname Dependent variable from the source table.
> independent_varname Independent variable from the source table.
> {code}
> This is OK since the columns actually do contain names.
> There is a related 2.0 story for the regular mini-batch preprocessor
> http://madlib.apache.org/docs/latest/group__grp__minibatch__preprocessing.html
> in JIRA https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MADLIB-1294 which we don't want
> to do in 1.16 since it will break semantic versioning
