Partially address #26154
Solving the issue pointed out here: #26154 (comment)
In short,
pandas
will better infer type duringDataFrame
concatenation with missing values. Previously, due to the way we read by chunk in theliac-arff
parser, we could end up withNone
andnp.nan
in the same column. The new version of pandas will identify both values are missing values.Since the new behaviour is what one would expect but we cannot make a backport, a way is to mark the test as
xfail
.
