A column-vector y was passed when a 1d array was expected

Question

I need to fit RandomForestRegressor from sklearn.ensemble.

forest = ensemble.RandomForestRegressor(**RF_tuned_parameters)
model = fo         


        

Answer 1

I had the same problem. The problem was that the labels were in a column format while it expected it in a row. use np.ravel()

knn.score(training_set, np.ravel(training_labels))

Hope this solves it.

Answer 2

Change this line:

model = forest.fit(train_fold, train_y)

to:

model = forest.fit(train_fold, train_y.values.ravel())

Edit:

.values will give the values in an array. (shape: (n,1)

.ravel will convert that array shape to (n, )
