Preview

Scikit-learn (sklearn) is one of the most popular open-source machine learning libraries for the Python programming language. It provides a simple and efficient toolkit for solving a wide range of classification tasks, including binary and multi-class classification. The library includes implementations of numerous classical and modern algorithms such as Logistic Regression, Support Vector Machines (SVM), Decision Trees, Random Forests, Gradient Boosting (including wrappers for XGBoost and LightGBM), Naive Bayes, and K-Nearest Neighbors. Scikit-learn offers a standardized API across all classifiers, which simplifies experimenting with different models and comparing them. Besides algorithms, the library contains essential utilities for data preparation (scaling, encoding categorical features), feature selection, splitting data into training and test sets, cross-validation, and evaluating model performance using various metrics (accuracy, precision, recall, F1-score, ROC-AUC, and others). Thanks to its reliability, extensive documentation, and active community, Scikit-learn is a cornerstone for many data analysis and machine learning projects, from educational examples to industrial applications in areas like spam detection, medical diagnosis, image classification, and text analysis.
