Problem installing scikit-survival in Google Colab

Question

I am facing a problem to install scikit-survival in Google Colaboratory. Everytime it says:

pip install scikit-survival
Collecting scikit-survival

However, I don't get the Error. I've installed the newest Python version and any other pip install command works. Does anyone has an idea?

Kind regards, Hashriama

Answer 1

The error is with different versioning and something related to it. Try the following in Colab.

!pip install --upgrade pip
!pip uninstall --yes --quiet osqp
!pip install -U scikit-survival

This should do the job.
