了解 scikit-learn ValueError：由于数据形状而设置具有序列的数组元素答案

【问题描述】：

在过去的两天里，我一直在努力寻找一种方法来正确地塑造我的数据并将其提供给 sklearn.preprocessing fit_transform。我的数据是从数以千计的量子化学计算中解析出来的。我有几个功能，最后是一个与原子位置相关的 25x25 矩阵。最终的 pandas dataFrame 如下所示：


Feature A (int), Feature B (float), Feature C (float), Feature D (float), [Matrix]

矩阵实际上是用零填充并变平的，所以 DataFrame 有一个 625x1 numpy 数组。

问题在于，当我尝试拆分并拟合我的数据以训练我的 Sequential 模型时，X_train = scaler.fit_transform(X_train) 会抛出错误：

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
TypeError                                 Traceback (most recent call last)
TypeError: only size-1 arrays can be converted to Python scalars

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

ValueError                                Traceback (most recent call last)
<ipython-input-18-a0e62fa4eda4> in <module>()
----> 1 X_train = scaler.fit_transform(X_train)

---> 85     return array(a, dtype, copy=False, order=order)
     86 
     87 

ValueError: setting an array element with a sequence.

如果我的数据包含一个 numpy 数组（甚至是一个列表）作为特征之一，我似乎无法使用它。这种情况我该怎么办？

附注：

如果有用，这里是 X_train 中的一行（我们可以看到我有一个子数组，这就是要了我的命）：

print(X_train[0])

【解决方案1】：

首先，让我们构建一个可以重现ValueError的数据框

import pandas as pd

test_df = pd.DataFrame({'prop_float_%i' % ind: np.random.rand(100) for ind in range(3)})
test_df['prop_int'] = np.random.randint(0,100,100)

# create the matrix column 
test_df['matrix'] = np.random.rand(100).astype('object')
for ind in range(100):test_df.at[ind,'matrix'] = np.random.rand(625)

test_df 前五行的样子

    prop_float_0  prop_float_1  prop_float_2  prop_int                                             matrix
0       0.748796      0.413757      0.750549        87  [0.0013304191112200048, 0.8335838936187671, 0....

2       0.767685      0.289047      0.376070        67  [0.5403591994226811, 0.20985464836499557, 0.47...
3       0.894771      0.008032      0.458049        11  [0.5520592944741991, 0.1013914150023918, 0.522...
4       0.174076      0.493082      0.045521        10  [0.3383177346302546, 0.8874405729210008, 0.169...

其中matrix 列中的条目是(625,) 数组。

我假设您想将features 与matrix 一起归一化（它们是原子位置！！！与基态能量等属性相比，原子位置具有不同的单位！！！ )，那么你需要在应用fit_transform之前扩展列matrix

df_mat = pd.DataFrame(test_df['matrix'].values.tolist()).astype('float')
test_df = test_df.drop('matrix',axis=1)
test_df.reset_index(drop=True,inplace=True)
df_mat.reset_index(drop=True,inplace=True)

flattened_df = pd.concat([test_df,df_mat],axis=1)

如您所见，在flattened_df 中，原来的matrix 列扩展为625 列，在flattened_df 上，您可以申请

from sklearn.preprocessing import MinMaxScaler

mm_scalar = MinMaxScaler()
transformed_array = mm_scalar.fit_transform(flattened_df)

亲爱的@meTchaikovsky，非常感谢！我几乎失去了希望。您的解释清楚明了。
@HenriqueJunior 不客气 :) 我很高兴能帮上忙 :)
