Hyperopt报错HyperoptEstimator.fit报错[Errno 22] Invalid argument的解决办法

在使用Hyperopt测试下面官方的例子时，报错[Errno 22] Invalid argument

from hpsklearn import HyperoptEstimator, any_classifier,any_preprocessing
from sklearn.datasets import load_iris
from hyperopt import tpe
import numpy as np

# Download the data and split into training and test sets
iris = load_iris()
X = iris.data
y = iris.target

test_size = int(0.2 * len(y))
np.random.seed(13)
indices = np.random.permutation(len(X))
X_train = X[indices[:-test_size]]
y_train = y[indices[:-test_size]]
X_test = X[indices[-test_size:]]
y_test = y[indices[-test_size:]]

# Instantiate a HyperoptEstimator with the search space and number of evaluations
estim = HyperoptEstimator(classifier=any_classifier('my_clf'),
                          preprocessing=any_preprocessing('my_pre'),
                          algo=tpe.suggest)

# Search the hyperparameter space based on the data
estim.fit(X_train, y_train)

# Show the results
print estim.score(X_test, y_test) 

报错详细内容，

最后找到了解决方法，只需加上if __name__ == '__main__':即可，具体如下。

from hpsklearn import HyperoptEstimator, any_classifier,any_preprocessing
from sklearn.datasets import load_iris
from hyperopt import tpe
import numpy as np

# Download the data and split into training and test sets
iris = load_iris()
X = iris.data
y = iris.target

test_size = int(0.2 * len(y))
np.random.seed(13)
indices = np.random.permutation(len(X))
X_train = X[indices[:-test_size]]
y_train = y[indices[:-test_size]]
X_test = X[indices[-test_size:]]
y_test = y[indices[-test_size:]]

# Instantiate a HyperoptEstimator with the search space and number of evaluations
estim = HyperoptEstimator(classifier=any_classifier('my_clf'),
                          preprocessing=any_preprocessing('my_pre'),
                          algo=tpe.suggest,
                          max_evals=100,
                          trial_timeout=120)

if __name__ == '__main__':
    # Search the hyperparameter space based on the data
    estim.fit(X_train, y_train)
    
    # Show the results
    print estim.score(X_test, y_test) 

 输出结果：0.933333333333

完美解决！
