Dear David, We recently submitted PipeGraph as a sklearn contrib project. Even though it is an ongoing project and we are right now modifying the interface in order to make it more suitable and useful for the sklearn community, I believe that the problems that you explain can be addressed by PipeGraph. If you need the possibility of defining different/equal transformations for X and y you can do it by simply defining different steps for each path; if you need different paths for fit and predict it is also possible to define them in PipeGraph. Please have a look at the general examples and judge by yourself if it fits your needs:
https://mcasl.github.io/PipeGraph/auto_examples/plot_4_example_combination_of_classifiers.html#sphx-glr-auto-examples-plot-4-example-combination-of-classifiers-py You can play with it using pip, for example: pip install pipegraph The API can be considered far from stable and we are following the advice of the sklearn community to turn it into something as useful as possible, but it is my humble opinion that in situations like this PipeGraph can provide a suitable solution.
