Maschinelles Lernen für Anfänger 2026: Scikit-learn, Algorithmen und Workflow

ML Workflow:
1. Define the problem (classification? regression? clustering?)
2. Collect and clean data
3. Explore the data (EDA — visualize, understand distributions)
4. Feature engineering (transform raw data into useful features)
5. Split: train (70%), validation (15%), test (15%)
6. Choose and train model
7. Evaluate on validation set
8. Tune hyperparameters
9. Final evaluation on test set (once!)
10. Deploy and monitor

pip install scikit-learn pandas numpy matplotlib seaborn
pip install xgboost lightgbm
pip install jupyter  # interactive exploration

# Or use Google Colab (free GPU/TPU)
