Hi Kathy. Why do you want to do that? The Chi2 Kernel is only defined for non-negative data, so it makes sense that the approximation only works with non-negative data. The Chi2 Kernel is mostly used for histogram data. Cheers, Andy On 10/14/2014 09:13 PM, Kathy Hida wrote: In Scikit-learn

2014-10-14 Thread Kathy Hida
In Scikit-learn, approximating the additive kernel of a matrix with negative values using AdditiveChi2Sampler is not supported. What is the best way to deal with this? Does it make sense if we just pass the absolute of the original matrix to the AdditiveChi2Sampler method? Thank you,
