PyCaret is an open-source machine learning library in Python designed to simplify the machine learning workflow. It automates complex processes, allowing you to replace hundreds of lines of code with just a few. PyCaret integrates several machine learning libraries like scikit-learn
, XGBoost
, and LightGBM
to streamline tasks.
-
Setup:
- Prepares the data for modeling by handling preprocessing tasks such as missing value imputation, encoding categorical variables, and feature scaling.
-
Compare Models:
- PyCaret automatically trains and evaluates multiple models to identify the best-performing one based on a selected metric.
-
Analyze Model:
- Visualize the model's performance through various interactive visualizations, helping to finalize the model for production.
-
Prediction:
- The selected model is used to predict target values on both test and unseen datasets.
-
Save:
- Save the trained model for future use or deployment.
