The End-to-End Pipeline

Every ML project, from a school exercise to a production system, follows the same loop: collect and clean data, split it, train, tune, evaluate, then deploy. It is a loop rather than a straight line because the world keeps changing, so models need monitoring and retraining. As you read the steps, notice that the test set is used only once, right at the end, which keeps the final score honest.
