I am trying to get an accuracy score for the classifiers but I keep getting this error
TypeError: predict() missing 1 required positional argument: 'X'
Can anyone help?
from sklearn.metrics import accuracy_score
classifiers = [SVC, sgd, naive_bayes]
# for each classifier get the accuracy score
scores = [accuracy_score(clf.predict(test_X), test_y) for clf in classifiers]
index = np.argmax(scores)
print(scores)
print(classifiers[index])
print(scores[index])
I do not see your whole example but this usually happens when you have not initialized your classifier.
Even more, to test, you first have to train your classifier (e.g. clf().fit(X_train, y_train)).
nocibambi is correct...to piggy back on his a simple implementation would look something like the following. I haven't run this as I'm at work, but hopefully it points you in the right direction.
# example classifier
svclassifier = SVC(kernel='linear')
# fit
svclassifier.fit(X_train, y_train)
# predict
y_pred = svclassifier.predict(X_test)
# score
print(confusion_matrix(y_test, y_pred))
print(classification_report(y_test, y_pred))
