# Feature Selectors
+## VectorSlicer
+
+`VectorSlicer` is a transformer that takes a feature vector and outputs a
new feature vector with a sub-array of the original features. It is useful for
extracting features from a vector column.
+
+`VectorSlicer` accepts a vector column with a specified indices, then
outputs a new vector column whose values are selected via those indices. There
are two types of indices,
+
+ 1. Integer indices that represents the real indices in the vector,
`setIndices()`;

I would remove the word "real" (i.e. "...that represent the indices into
the vector") since it could be confused for real numbers (i.e. real-valued
indices, which don't really make sense)
