Index out of bouds

I have been experiencing frustrating model specification “index out of bounds” error on specifying a Hierarchy logistic model.

I did follow the specification Junpenglao indicated on this question Prediction using sample_ppc in Hierarchical model - Questions - PyMC Discourse. However, it did not work at my case.

Here is my code:

X_train_hier, X_test_hier, y_train_hier, y_test_hier = train_test_split(X_hier, y, test_size=.15, random_state=seed)

X_idx = theano.shared(np.asarray(X_train_hier.uid))

X_user = len(np.unique(np.asarray(X.uid)))

X_train_hier = X_train_hier.drop(“uid”, axis=1)

X_len = len(X_train_hier.keys())

X_data = theano.shared(X_train_hier)

with pm.Model() as hier:
#hyperpriors:
mu_a = pm.Normal(“mu_a”, 0.0, 1e4)
sigma_a = pm.Exponential(“sigma_a”, 1e4)
mu_b = pm.Normal(“mu_b”, 0.0, 1e4)
sigma_b = pm.Exponential(“sigma_b”, 1e4)

#intercept prior for each user
a = pm.Normal("a", mu_a, sigma_a, shape=X_user)

#coefficient prior for each user
b = pm.Normal("b", mu_b, sigma_b, shape=(X_user, X_len))

#likelihood
theta = pm.Deterministic("theta", pm.invlogit(a[X_idx] + b[X_idx] * X_data.T))

#observation from sigmoid
obs = pm.Bernoulli(name="AT", p=theta, observed=y_train_hier)

And here is the error message I had:

IndexError Traceback (most recent call last)

IndexError: index 7420 is out of bounds for axis 0 with size 7420


I had played around with the model, the problem seemed to be at X_idx. However, I used the exact method to assign X_idx as Junpenglao did at Prediction using sample_ppc in Hierarchical model - Questions - PyMC Discourse. I tried the sample code from the above question and it worked, but on own dataset it does not.

I am sorry I cannot upload a part of my data because of confidentiality issue, however, I can provide the dimensions of X_idx (70345, which is the number of rows of this training dataset), X_user (7420, which is the number of rows of uid for the entire dataset).

I am stuck on this for days. I could really appreciate some help! @junpenglao

I would guess your variable X.uid is not appropriate for indexing. It should be in the range (0, X_user)

Thank you very much. That is the case here. I process the data in R so I forgot that the index should start from 0 in Python!
