Question

I am trying to import Silhouette Visualizer and always get some errors, I have already updated the version of python and pip and tried uninstalling and installing scikit-learn and nothing works. I am getting this error:

Answer 1

Thanks for checking out Yellowbrick!

This problem is occurring because scikit-learn recently changed their public/private API, so utils.safe_indexing is now called utils._safe_indexing. In order for the utility to work in Yellowbrick, we are working on a change to our usage of safe_indexing to support users with versions of scikit-learn >= 0.24 without deprecating support for users with versions of scikit-learn < 0.24. That change will be available in the next version of Yellowbrick; you can track progress on the issue here.

In the meantime, you can avoid the error by downgrading your version of scikit-learn to <0.24 (e.g. pip install scikit-learn==0.23)!
