Installing Python package sklearn fails

Support

I’ve noticed that a module we have in SlicerHeart that uses sklearn always wants to install it. I tried to uninstall it and reinstall it, but import failed. Cleared the pip cache (PythonSlicer.exe -m pip cache remove *) but no improvement.

I tried it with the latest stable 5.2.1 and unfortunately it seems that after fresh-installing it and trying to import does not work:

>>> pip_install('sklearn')

It’s a bit suspicious that the version number is 0.0, but I’m not familiar with sklearn so not sure if this means nightly or what… Any ideas? Thank you!

You are confusing 2 packages. PyPI name sklearn (sklearn · PyPI) is not the same as PyPI name scikit-learn (scikit-learn · PyPI). Both use the same import sklearn type though when used.

pip_install('scikit-learn') is what you need.
