TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for -: 'numpy.ndarray' and 'numpy.ndarray'
The TypeError
problem stems from salaries being a list of strings while y_train_actual is a list of floats. Those cannot be subtracted.
For your second error, you should make sure that both arrays are of the same size, otherwise it cannot subtract them.

I am trying to calculate the Mean Squared Error of the predictions
y_train_actual
from my sci-kit learn model with the original valuessalaries
.Problem: However with
mean_squared_error(y_train_actual, salaries)
, I am getting the errorTypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for -: 'numpy.ndarray' and 'numpy.ndarray'
. Usinglist(salaries)
instead ofsalaries
as the 2nd parameter gives the same error.With
mean_squared_error(y_train_actual, y_valid_actual)
I am getting the errorFound array with dim 40663. Expected 244768
How can I convert to the correct array types for
sklearn.netrucs.mean_squared_error()
?Code
from sklearn.metrics import mean_squared_error y_train_actual = [ np.exp(float(row)) for row in y_train ] print mean_squared_error(y_train_actual, salaries)
