scikit-learn is a Python module for machine learning built on top of
SciPy and is distributed under the 3-Clause BSD license.

The project was started in 2007 by David Cournapeau as a Google Summer
of Code project, and since then many volunteers have contributed. See
the About us <https://scikit-learn.org/dev/about.html#authors>__ page
for a list of core contributors.

It is currently maintained by a team of volunteers.

Installation

Dependencies


scikit-learn requires:

- Python (>= |PythonMinVersion|)
- NumPy (>= |NumPyMinVersion|)
- SciPy (>= |SciPyMinVersion|)
- joblib (>= |JoblibMinVersion|)
- threadpoolctl (>= |ThreadpoolctlMinVersion|)

=======

**Scikit-learn 0.20 was the last version to support Python 2.7 and Python 3.4.**
scikit-learn 1.0 and later require Python 3.7 or newer.
scikit-learn 1.1 and later require Python 3.8 or newer.

Scikit-learn plotting capabilities (i.e., functions start with ``plot_`` and
classes end with ``Display``) require Matplotlib (>= |MatplotlibMinVersion|).
For running the examples Matplotlib >= |MatplotlibMinVersion| is required.
A few examples require scikit-image >= |Scikit-ImageMinVersion|, a few examples
require pandas >= |PandasMinVersion|, some examples require seaborn >=
|SeabornMinVersion| and plotly >= |PlotlyMinVersion|.

User installation

If you already have a working installation of NumPy and SciPy,
the easiest way to install scikit-learn is using pip::

pip install -U scikit-learn

or conda::

conda install -c conda-forge scikit-learn

The documentation includes more detailed installation instructions <https://scikit-learn.org/stable/install.html>_.

Changelog

See the changelog <https://scikit-learn.org/dev/whats_new.html>__
for a history of notable changes to scikit-learn.

Development

We welcome new contributors of all experience levels. The scikit-learn
community goals are to be helpful, welcoming, and effective. The
Development Guide <https://scikit-learn.org/stable/developers/index.html>_
has detailed information about contributing code, documentation, tests, and
more. We’ve included some basic information in this README.

Testing
~~~~~~~

After installation, you can launch the test suite from outside the source
directory (you will need to have ``pytest`` >= |PyTestMinVersion| installed)::

    pytest sklearn

See the web page https://scikit-learn.org/dev/developers/contributing.html#testing-and-improving-test-coverage
for more information.

    Random number generation can be controlled during testing by setting
    the ``SKLEARN_SEED`` environment variable.
