the reconstruction_err code should allocate in a dense matrix of size n_samples x n_components. But if you use safe_sparse_dot, as W and H are dense, you will allocate a dense matrix of size n_samples x n_features otherwise I messed up Alex ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Learn the latest--Visual Studio 2012, SharePoint 2013, SQL 2012, more!
