ImportError: cannot import name 'oneHotEncoder' from 'sklearn.preprocessing'
Please I urgently need help. I'm new in this field. I have spent about 3 hours going through different solutions but with no success. Below is an error i'm getting in jupyter notebook.
ImportError Traceback (most recent call last) Cell In[49], line 3 1 # Turn the categories into numbers 2 from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split ----> 3 from sklearn.preprocessing import oneHotEncoder 4 from sklearn.compose import ColumnTransformer 6 categorical_features = ["Make", "Colour", "Doors"]
ImportError: cannot import name 'oneHotEncoder' from 'sklearn.preprocessing' (C:\Users\pc\Desktop\Sample_project_1\env\Lib\site-packages\sklearn\preprocessing_init_.py)
Please find below the code I ran.
car_sales = pd.read_csv("data/car-sales-extended.csv") car_sales.head()
Split into x/y
x = car_sales.drop("Price", axis =1) y =car_sales["Price"]
Split into training and test data
x_train, x_test, y_train, y_test = train_test_split(x, y, test_size = 0.2)
Build a machine learning model
from sklearn.ensemble import RandomForestRegressor model = RandomForestRegressor() model.fit(x_train, y_train) model.score(x_test, y_test)
Turn the categories into numbers
`from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split from sklearn.preprocessing import oneHotEncoder from sklearn.compose import ColumnTransformer
categorical_features = ["Make", "Colour", "Doors"] one_hot = oneHotEncoder() transformer =ColumnTransformer([("one_hot", one_hot, categorical_features)], remainder="passthrough")
transformed_x = transformer.fit_transform(x) transformed_x ``
This leads to
ImportError Traceback (most recent call last)
