Documentation of scikit-learn 0.21.3¶

Quick Start

A very short introduction into machine learning problems and how to solve them using scikit-learn. Presents basic concepts and conventions.

User Guide

The main documentation. This contains an in-depth description of all algorithms and how to apply them.

Other Versions

Tutorials

Useful tutorials for developing a feel for some of scikit-learn's applications in the machine learning field.

Glossary

The definitive description of key concepts and API elements for using scikit-learn and developing compatible tools.

API

The exact API of all functions and classes, as given by the docstrings. The API documents expected types and allowed features for all functions, and all parameters available for the algorithms.

Development
