Do we need something like the following?

if (pos_label is None and _determine_key_type(classes) == 'str'
    ...

Thanks indeed, I updated my PR based on your suggestion and I could get rid of the remaining numpy FutureWarning in array_equal.

I agree that the error message here need to be updated.

"not specified: either make y_true take integer "
"value in {{0, 1}} or {{-1, 1}} or pass pos_label "
"explicitly.".format(classes=set(classes)))
elif pos_label is None:
pos_label = 1.

@qinhanmin2014 I have changed the test in this PR to trigger the exception in _binary_clf_curve from precision_recall_curve rather then plot_roc_curve so that we can merge both #15316 while also improving the error message.

This PR is still useful to:

  • raise a meaningful error message when the user passes an invalid pos_label value;
  • improve the error message when passing string labels without passing an explicit pos_label for function that do not automatically label encode string labels (e.g. precision_recall_curve);
  • have more tests.

y_true, _, probas_pred = make_prediction(binary=True)
