I've put standardScaler on the pipeline, and
the results of CV_mlpregressor.predict(x_test), are weird. I think i must have to bring the values back from the standardScaler, but still can't figure how.

pipe_MLPRegressor = Pipeline([('scaler', StandardScaler()),
 ('MLPRegressor', MLPRegressor(random_state = 42))])


grid_params_MLPRegressor = [
 'MLPRegressor__solver': ['lbfgs'],
 'MLPRegressor__max_iter': [100,200,300,500],
 'MLPRegressor__activation' : ['relu','logistic','tanh'],
 'MLPRegressor__hidden_layer_sizes':[(2,), (4,),(2,2),(4,4),(4,2),(10,10),(2,2,2)],
]


CV_mlpregressor = GridSearchCV (estimator = pipe_MLPRegressor,
 param_grid = grid_params_MLPRegressor,
 cv = 5,return_train_score=True, verbose=0)

CV_mlpregressor.fit(x_train, y_train)

CV_mlpregressor.predict(x_test)

The Results:

array([ 2.67564153e+04, 1.90010572e+04, 9.62702942e+04, 3.98791931e+04,

Thanks in advance.

@Lian, I think you are doing everything in the correct way. Please check your data. I did an experiment with sklearn dataset and this works as expected.

from sklearn.preprocessing import StandardScaler
from sklearn.neural_network import MLPRegressor
from sklearn.pipeline import Pipeline
from sklearn.model_selection import GridSearchCV
from sklearn.datasets import load_boston
from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split
import numpy as np

x,y = load_boston(return_X_y=True)


xtrain, xtest, ytrain, ytest = train_test_split(x,y, random_state=6784)

pipe_MLPRegressor = Pipeline([('scaler', StandardScaler()),
 ('MLPRegressor', MLPRegressor(random_state = 42))])
grid_params_MLPRegressor = [
 'MLPRegressor__solver': ['lbfgs'],
 'MLPRegressor__max_iter': [100,200,300,500],
 'MLPRegressor__activation' : ['relu','logistic','tanh'],
 'MLPRegressor__hidden_layer_sizes':[(2,), (4,),(2,2),(4,4),(4,2),(10,10),(2,
2,2)],]


CV_mlpregressor = GridSearchCV (estimator = pipe_MLPRegressor,
 param_grid = grid_params_MLPRegressor,
 cv = 5,return_train_score=True, verbose=0)

CV_mlpregressor.fit(xtrain, ytrain)

ypred=CV_mlpregressor.predict(xtest)

print np.c_[ytest, ypred]

This prints
