Hi Sheila.
It would help if you could say what the difference between the two datasets is.
Given the name "iris.scale" I would assume that it is somehow scaled,
either using zero mean, unit variance, between 0 and 1 or l2 normalized.
Have you tried using Scaler on the data to see what you get?

Cheers,
Andy

Hi all,
I am trying to read libsvm format data 'iris.scale' (from http://www.csie.ntu.edu.tw/~cjlin/libsvmtools/datasets/multiclass/iris.scale <http://www.csie.ntu.edu.tw/%7Ecjlin/libsvmtools/datasets/multiclass/iris.scale> ) as

from sklearn.datasets import load_svmlight_file
X_train, y_train = load_svmlight_file('iris.scale')

I thought this will give same format as

from sklearn import datasets
iris = datasets.load_iris()

Though y_train is same format as iris.target but X_train is not in same format as iris.data !!!

How can I read a  libsvm format file same as datasets.load_iris()

Thanks
