Me too

Sorry, not tested with Py3. with Py2.7 it should work.

[njali2001]

Is there any solution for this issue right now?

[sevamoo]

@compmonks did you have a solution for this? If I remember correctly you used it in py3?
Thanks

[compmonks]

Sompy would not work when loaded as a package for py 3+ for dependencies and syntax reasons.
@azize @sevamoo , I should have pushed a version for this. Let me know if it works.

I had the same problem and the SOMPY version forked by @compmonks worked for me:

pip3 install git+https://github.com/compmonks/SOMPY.git

I only had to remove ipdb import from sompy.py and mapview.py because due to other dependencies I had installed the ipdb import was opening a prompt in my setup.
Thank you @compmonks for the fork!

Have the same issue, but problem appers in my case also in python 2.7. Is there already a solution?

I have exactly the same issue

Same issue. It’s because of ipdb module.Afrer I commented them out in sompy.py and mapview.py, it worked. It’s just debugger

[piaebe]

Hi, I have the same issue. @Nomad-Jin What exactly did you comment out? what is 'ipdb'?

[altermarkive]

@pricklpitty - ipdb is a module which gives access the IPython debugger (https://pypi.python.org/pypi/ipdb).
Besides import ipdb in sompy.py and mapview.py there are no other references to that module in the code so it was probably left accidentally after a debugging session...

how could i save the model , and predict the cluster of new data , like kmeans in sklearn "model.predict(new_data)"?????????

[rebelgiri]

Did anyone found the solution for this open issue?

[abdoulsn]

for me I installed SOMPY using the setup source, this fixed my bug last year. That longtime I've used it.

[mashirali]

git clone https://github.com/sevamoo/SOMPY.git
cd SOMPY
python setup.py install

This fixed my issue

I get

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "D:\Projects\AI\SOM\data\sompy_clustering.py", line 3, in
import sompy as sompy
File "C:\Python\lib\site-packages\sompy_init_.py", line 2, in
from sompy import SOM
ImportError: cannot import name 'SOM' from partially initialized module 'sompy' (most likely due to a circular import) (C:\Python\lib\site-packages\sompy_init_.py)

Getting the package from GIT does NOT fix the issue. I have Python 3.10.5
