Demonstrates a concrete library and patterns: the Yellowbrick Visualizer that plugs into the scikit‑learn API, producing feature, classification, clustering, and regression diagnostics. Shows recursive feature elimination plots, cross‑validation variability heat maps, manifold embeddings (PCA, t‑SNE, UMAP) and learning/validation curves, and reports where regularization or normalization actually moves metrics. Gives examples of what changed the model, how many features proved unnecessary, and which visual checks find heteroscedasticity or slow hyperparameter regimes.
