Scikit-learn is a Python library that provides a standard interface for implementing machine learning algorithms. It includes other ancillary functions that are integral to the machine learning pipeline such as data preprocessing steps, data resampling techniques, evaluation parameters, and search interfaces for tuning/optimizing an algorithm’s performance.

This section will go through the functions for implementing a typical machine learning pipeline with Scikit-learn. Since, Scikit-learn has a variety of packages and modules that ...
