I'm new to AWS SageMaker and I'm trying to deploy a simple pre-trained model to SageMaker to create endpoint and then make predictions.
The model is a sklearn linear regression model, the input is a vectorized sparse matrix, derived from a string of text (customer's review), and output the star-rating value (1 to 5).
I have trained the model locally and export its artifact to a model.joblib file. Then I configure the inference.py file to zip it together with the model.joblib file into a model.tar.gz file, which is then uploaded to S3 for model registration and endpoint creation.
However, when I invoke the endpoint on a sample text, the following error is returned in the CloudWatch log:
File "/miniconda3/lib/python3.8/site-packages/sklearn/feature_extraction/text.py", line 498, in _check_vocabulary
raise NotFittedError("Vocabulary not fitted or provided")
I understand that this means SageMaker is complaining about the trained model artifact being not fitted, and there is no problem with other parts (such as the inference.py file). However the pre-trained model was fitted before exporting.
I'm not sure which part was wrong, so I didn't upload any more codes not to cluster.
Thank you.
