Load fetch_lfw_people using Proxy
I want to use this toy dataset for education.
But when I try to load it using builtin sklearn loader I got the error.
from sklearn import datasets
lfw_people = datasets.fetch_lfw_people(min_faces_per_person=50,
resize=0.4, data_home='.', )
Error:
urlopen error [WinError 10061]
I know it is about the proxy - usually to install new packages I use --proxy option.
But how to do it now? There is no such option in datasets.fetch_lfw_people
I thought about manual downloading it from the official website: http://vis-www.cs.umass.edu/lfw/#download
But I don't know which one to choose and how to open after that in python.
python-3.x proxy scikit-learn dataset jupyter-notebook

fetch_lfw_people will by default check the data in '~/scikit_learn_data/lfw_home' to see if the dataset is already downloaded and correct or not (by matching hashes).
According to source code, it downloads 4 files from the following urls:
For targets
pairsDevTrain.txt: https://ndownloader.figshare.com/files/5976012
pairsDevTest.txt: https://ndownloader.figshare.com/files/5976009
pairs.txt: https://ndownloader.figshare.com/files/5976006
For data
lfw-funneled.tgz (Default): https://ndownloader.figshare.com/files/5976015
OR
lfw.tgz (when
funneled=False): https://ndownloader.figshare.com/files/5976018
So you can download these files and keep them in the specified folder. After that, just call fetch_lfw_people method and it will load the data from this location without connecting to internet.
Here ~ refers to the home location of user. You can use the following code to know the default location of that folder according to your system.
from sklearn.datasets import get_data_home
print(get_data_home())
Since you have changed that value to data_home='.', so you should use the ~/lfw_home without 'scikit_learn_data' (i.e. Make lfw_home directly in the home folder).

Awesome advice, thank you! Are this link the only places I can download those datasets? Looks like it is blocked at my PC!

@Mikhail_Sam These are the locations sklearn uses to download the dataset. Maybe you can find other locations too. But I am not sure how they work with sklearn code then
