ValueError: Unknown label type: 'unknown'
Your y is of type object, so sklearn cannot recognize its type. Add the line y=y.astype('int') right after the line y = train[:, 1].
Adding to Miriam ,I also got the similar error but in my case individual elements of y_pred was of type 'np.int32' and individual elements of y was of type 'int'.I solved it by doing:
for i,x in enumerate(y_pred): y_pred[i]=x.astype('int')
