I can reproduce this failure message: ```python import mxnet as mx import numpy as np mx.npx.set_np() a = np.ndarray(shape=(128,)) # similar to one feature of one sequence b = np.ndarray(shape=(19,)) l1 = [a,b] # similar to one feature of all sequences l2 = [a,b] c = [l1, l2] # similar to a training instance that will be sampled against ds = mx.gluon.data.ArrayDataset(*c) dt = mx.gluon.data.DataLoader(dataset=ds, batch_size=1, num_workers=1, try_nopython=True) print('ok') # error out before prints ``` Error message: ```python ~/miniconda3/lib/python3.7/site-packages/mxnet/gluon/data/dataset.py in __mx_handle__(self) 383 datasets.append(data.__mx_handle__()) 384 else: --> 385 datasets.append(NDArrayDataset(arr=default_array(data))) 386 self.handle = GroupDataset(datasets=datasets) 387 return self.handle ~/miniconda3/lib/python3.7/site-packages/mxnet/util.py in default_array(source_array, ctx, dtype) 936 from . import np as _mx_np 937 if is_np_array(): --> 938 return _mx_np.array(source_array, ctx=ctx, dtype=dtype) 939 else: 940 return _mx_nd.array(source_array, ctx=ctx, dtype=dtype) ~/miniconda3/lib/python3.7/site-packages/mxnet/numpy/multiarray.py in array(object, dtype, ctx) 2407 # printing out the error raised by official NumPy's array function 2408 # for transparency on users' side -> 2409 raise TypeError('{}'.format(str(e))) 2410 ret = empty(object.shape, dtype=dtype, ctx=ctx) 2411 if len(object.shape) == 0: TypeError: setting an array element with a sequence. ``` ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
