Jupyter Notebook cannot import pyLDAvis.sklearn

I am using Jupyter Notebook to run python code. I already did the following:

!pip install pyldavis 

I can successfully import pyLDAvis via the following codes:

import pyLDAvis pyLDAvis.enable_notebook() 

However, I cannot import pyLDAvis.sklearn via the following codes:

import pyLDAvis.sklearn 

It returns:

ModuleNotFoundError Traceback (most recent call last) Cell In[52], line 1 ----> 1 import pyLDAvis.sklearn_models

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pyLDAvis.sklearn_models'

Why is that and what should I do to deal with it?

It looks like there has been a change in how the software handles this pattern.

This issue posted here in May of this year (2023) that looks to be the same as yours.

It links over to a solution that details how the use of the software has recently developed:

"pyLDAvis v 3.4.0 no longer has the file sklearn.py in the pip package." Replace any logic involving:

import pyLDAvis.sklearn ... pyLDAvis.sklearn.prepare 

"with"

import pyLDAvis.lda_model ... pyLDAvis.lda_model.prepare 

How this was found via troubleshooting:

I went to the page for the package in the Python Package Index (PyPI) and clicked on 'GitHub statistics:' on the left side under 'GitHub statistics:'. Then in the 'filters' slot I entered 'pyLDAvis.sklearn'.
The four that came up as open didn't look too similar to the OP, and so I clicked on the '7 closed' tag above the listing. The most recent one listed 'ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pyLDAvis.sklearn' looked to be a good match to this post, and so I examined it.
