<p>XGBoost is a specific implementation of gradient boosting trees,
so strictly speaking scikit-learn cannot "contain" XGBoost. That
being said:
</p>
<p>- XGBoost has a scikit-learn compatible API:

So does LightGBM, another fast implementation of gradient boosting
trees.<br>
</p>
<p>- scikit-learn implements "vanilla" gradient boosting

</p>
<p>- There's an open PR in scikit learn (still very WIP) that
implements the same kind of optimization that XGBoost and LightGBM
use, which will make GBDT faster

<div>Does sklearn contain xgboost to use? </div>
