Please install 64-bit version. If you have a strong need to install with 32-bit Python, refer to `Build 32-bit Version with 32-bit Python section <#build-32-bit-version-with-32-bit-python>`__. | Install from `PyPI `_ '''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' .. code:: sh pip install lightgbm Compiled library that is included in the wheel file supports both **GPU** (don't confuse with CUDA version) and **CPU** versions out of the box. This feature is available only for **Windows** and **Linux** currently. To use **GPU** version you only need to install OpenCL Runtime libraries. For NVIDIA and AMD GPU they are included in the ordinary drivers for your graphics card, so no action is required. If you would like your AMD or Intel CPU to act like a GPU (for testing and debugging), you can install `AMD APP SDK... ## AI interpretation — verify before relying LightGBM is a fast, distributed gradient boosting framework for classification, regression, and ranking tasks that works with numpy, scipy, and narwhals dataframe libraries. Verdict: LightGBM 4.7.0 is a production-stable, actively maintained gradient boosting library with no known vulnerabilities. It has medium install friction due to compiled dependencies but offers pre-built wheels for major platforms. License treatment is unclear, which warrants verification before adoption in proprietary contexts.
