IMPORTANT NOTICE: daal4py has been merged into scikit-learn-intelex. As of version 2025.0, it is distributed as an additional importable module within the package scikit-learn-intelex instead of being a separate package. The last standalone release of daal4py was version 2024.7, and this standalone package will not receive further updates.

A simplified API to oneAPI Data Analytics Library that allows for fast usage of the framework suited for Data Scientists or Machine Learning users. Built to help provide an abstraction to oneAPI Data Analytics Library for either direct usage or integration into one's own framework.

Note: For the most part, daal4py is used as an internal backend within the Scikit-Learn extension, and it is highly recommended to use sklearnex instead. Nevertheless, some functionalities from daal4py can still be of use, and the module can still be imported directly (import daal4py) after installing scikit-learn-intelex.

Daal4Py is distributed as part of scikit-learn-intelex, which itself is distributed under different channels.

See the installation instructions for scikit-learn-intelex for details.

Scikit-learn patching functionality in daal4py was deprecated and moved to a separate package - Extension for Scikit-learn*. All future updates for the patching will be available in Extension for Scikit-learn only. Please use the package instead of daal4py for the Scikit-learn acceleration.
