Error while fitting - Githubissues

I used TPOTRegressor on my dataset, adding and removing features from the input data for different tests. When using all 18 features of my 28 datapoints and sample_weight, TPOT fails to fit with a ValueError. This doesn't happen when removing the sample_weight.

The error also doesn't happen in the same dataset using, for example, only 10 features of those 18, or in a different dataset with 8 features and 55 data points.

Process to reproduce the issue

I'm afraid i cannot share the data. This is a mockup of the code used:

import pandas as pd
import tpot

# load data
train_x: pd.DataFrame (28, 18)
train_y: pd.Series (28,)
train_weight: pd.Series (28,)

model= tpot.TPOTRegressor(generations=50, population_size=20, cv=5, random_state=42, verbosity=2)
model.fit(features=train_x, target=train_y, sample_weight=train_weight)

The same result is obtained when using .values on the pandas variables.

Yields:
