I am trying to get into Multi-class text classification I have the following code:

import pandas as pd
import tensorflow as tf
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from nltk.tokenize import word_tokenize
from nltk.stem import WordNetLemmatizer
from nltk.stem import PorterStemmer
from tqdm import tqdm

from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split
from keras.preprocessing import sequence
from keras.preprocessing.text import Tokenizer
from keras.callbacks import EarlyStopping
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from nltk.corpus import stopwords
STOPWORDS = set(stopwords.words('german'))

vocab_size = 2000
embedding_dim = 64
max_length = 100
trunc_type = 'post'
padding_type = 'post'
oov_tok = '<OOV>'

tickets = []
labels = []

df = pd.read_csv('tensorflow/Incidents_20210728.csv', sep=';')
df['Symptom'] = df['Symptom'].str.lower()


def getLemmText(text):
    tokens = word_tokenize(text)
    lemmatizer = WordNetLemmatizer()
    tokens = [lemmatizer.lemmatize(word) for word in tokens]
    return ' '.join(tokens)


def getStemmText(text):
    tokens = word_tokenize(text)
    ps = PorterStemmer()
    tokens = [ps.stem(word) for word in tokens]
    return ' '.join(tokens)


df['Symptom'] = list(map(getLemmText, df['Symptom']))
df['Symptom'] = list(map(getStemmText, df['Symptom']))

xtrain, xtest, ytrain, ytest = train_test_split(
    df['Symptom'], df['_qResolvedByGroup'],
    test_size=0.33,
    random_state=53)

tokenizer = Tokenizer(num_words=vocab_size, oov_token=oov_tok)
tokenizer.fit_on_texts(list(xtrain) + list(xtest))

xtrain_seq = tokenizer.texts_to_sequences(xtrain)
xtest_seq = tokenizer.texts_to_sequences(xtest)

word_index = tokenizer.word_index

xtrain_pad = sequence.pad_sequences(
    xtrain_seq, maxlen=max_length, padding=padding_type, truncating=trunc_type)
xtest_pad = sequence.pad_sequences(
    xtest_seq, maxlen=max_length, padding=padding_type, truncating=trunc_type)

label_tokenizer = Tokenizer()
label_tokenizer.fit_on_texts(list(ytrain))

train_label_seq = np.array(
    label_tokenizer.texts_to_sequences(ytrain), dtype=object)
test_label_seq = np.array(
    label_tokenizer.texts_to_sequences(ytest), dtype=object)

model = Sequential()
model.add(Embedding(len(word_index) + 1,
                    embedding_dim))
model.add(SpatialDropout1D(0.3))
model.add(Bidirectional(LSTM(embedding_dim,
          dropout=0.3, recurrent_dropout=0.3)))
model.add(Dense(embedding_dim, activation='relu'))
model.add(Dropout(0.8))
model.add(Dense(embedding_dim, activation='relu'))
model.add(Dropout(0.8))
model.add(Dense(68))
model.add(Activation('softmax'))
model.compile(loss='sparse_categorical_crossentropy',
              optimizer='adam', metrics=['accuracy'])

num_epochs = 10
history = model.fit(xtrain_pad, train_label_seq, epochs=num_epochs,
                    validation_data=(xtest_pad, test_label_seq), verbose=2)

But it throw the following error:

ValueError: Failed to convert a NumPy array to a Tensor (Unsupported object type list).

I tried to change np.array to np.hstack and searched a bit but couldn’t resolve the error.

I hope someone can help me here.

Can you please try
X=np.asarray(X).astype(np.float32) and Y=np.asarray(Y).astype(np.float32) before passing X and Y to model

Thanks for the reply.

I’ve tried it:

X = np.asarray(xtrain_pad).astype(np.float32)
Y = np.asarray(train_label_seq).astype(np.float32)

num_epochs = 10
history = model.fit(X, Y, epochs=num_epochs,
                    validation_data=(xtest_pad, test_label_seq), verbose=2)

But now I get the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "c:\Users\vit\code\qism-ticket-classification\tensorflow\multi-class.py", line 100, in <module>
    Y = np.asarray(train_label_seq).astype(np.float32)
ValueError: setting an array element with a sequence.

I hope someone can help me there

May be this Stack Overflow can help: python - ValueError: setting an array element with a sequence - Stack Overflow

It will be helpful to print the values of train_label_seq to verify that all rows have the same shape. If its large try inspecting only first few or last few values by slicing it with [:5]

Has anyone found the solution to this, I have been trying to convert the numpy array to tensor but it won’t work because I was trying to feed an array with different length or sequences.
I tried flattening the array but still it won’t work.
I tried flattening and padding the image but still it won’t work.
please help me here someone.

Has anyone solved this issue? I am also unable to progress from here.

13 
X_test = tf.convert_to_tensor(X_test, dtype = tf.float32)

Use this function ‘tf.convert_to_tensor’ with the dtype as required. It will convert the numpy array into tensor and it worked for me

I have resolve the problem by changing all data to float32 before model fitting:

X_train=np.asarray(X_train).astype(np.float32)
y_train=np.asarray(y_train)
X_test=np.asarray(X_test).astype(np.float32)
y_test=np.asarray(y_test)
