15.8 Wrap-Up
In this chapter we began our study of machine learning, using the popular scikit-learn library. We saw that machine learning is divided into two types. Supervised machine learning, which works with labeled data and unsupervised machine learning which works with unlabeled data. Throughout this chapter, we continued emphasizing visualizations using Matplotlib and Seaborn, particularly for getting to know your data.
We discussed how scikit-learn conveniently packages machine-learning algorithms as estimators. Each is encapsulated so you can create your models quickly with a small amount of code, even if you don’t know the intricate details of how these algorithms work.
We looked at supervised machine learning with classification, ...
