class Pipeline(_BaseComposition):
    """Pipeline of transforms with a final estimator.

    Sequentially apply a list of transforms and a final estimator.
    Intermediate steps of the pipeline must be 'transforms', that is, they
    must implement fit and transform methods.
    The final estimator only needs to implement fit.
    The transformers in the pipeline can be cached using ``memory`` argument.

    The purpose of the pipeline is to assemble several steps that can be
    cross-validated together while setting different parameters.
    For this, it enables setting parameters of the various steps using their
    names and the parameter name separated by a '__', as in the example below.
    A step's estimator may be replaced entirely by setting the parameter
    with its name to another estimator, or a transformer removed by setting
    to None.

    Read more in the :ref:`User Guide <pipeline>`.

    Parameters
    ----------
    steps : list
        List of (name, transform) tuples (implementing fit/transform) that are
        chained, in the order in which they are chained, with the last object
        an estimator.

    memory : None, str or object with the joblib.Memory interface, optional
        Used to cache the fitted transformers of the pipeline. By default,
        no caching is performed. If a string is given, it is the path to
        the caching directory. Enabling caching triggers a clone of
        the transformers before fitting. Therefore, the transformer
        instance given to the pipeline cannot be inspected
        directly. Use the attribute ``named_steps`` or ``steps`` to
        inspect estimators within the pipeline. Caching the
        transformers is advantageous when fitting is time consuming.

    Attributes
    ----------
    named_steps : bunch object, a dictionary with attribute access
        Read-only attribute to access any step parameter by user given name.
        Keys are step names and values are steps parameters.

    This is a shorthand for the Pipeline constructor; it does not require, and

    Parameters
    ----------
    *steps : list of estimators.

    memory : None, str or object with the joblib.Memory interface, optional
        Used to cache the fitted transformers of the pipeline. By default,
        no caching is performed. If a string is given, it is the path to
        the caching directory. Enabling caching triggers a clone of
        the transformers before fitting. Therefore, the transformer
        instance given to the pipeline cannot be inspected
        directly. Use the attribute ``named_steps`` or ``steps`` to
        inspect estimators within the pipeline. Caching the
        transformers is advantageous when fitting is time consuming.

    This estimator applies a list of transformer objects in parallel to the

    several feature extraction mechanisms into a single transformer.

    Parameters of the transformers may be set using its name and the parameter
    name separated by a '__'. A transformer may be replaced entirely by
    setting the parameter with its name to another transformer,
    or removed by setting to 'drop' or ``None``.

    Read more in the :ref:`User Guide <feature_union>`.

    Parameters
    ----------
    transformer_list : list of (string, transformer) tuples
        List of transformer objects to be applied to the data. The first
        half of each tuple is the name of the transformer.

    n_jobs : int or None, optional (default=None)
        Number of jobs to run in parallel.
        ``None`` means 1 unless in a :obj:`joblib.parallel_backend` context.
        ``-1`` means using all processors. See :term:`Glossary <n_jobs>`
        for more details.

    transformer_weights : dict, optional
        Multiplicative weights for features per transformer.
