Add a model to the pipeline

You're about to take everything you've learned so far and implement it in a Pipeline that works with the real, DrivenData budget line item data you've been exploring.

Surprise! The structure of the pipeline is exactly the same as earlier in this chapter:

  • the preprocessing step uses FeatureUnion to join the results of nested pipelines that each rely on FunctionTransformer to select multiple datatypes
  • the model step stores the model object

You can then call familiar methods like .fit() and .score() on the Pipeline object pl.
