Sample code for coding practice

Median housing value prediction

The housing data can be downloaded from https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ageron/handson-ml/master/. The script has codes to download the data. We have modelled the median house value on given housing data.

The following techniques have been used:

• Linear regression
• Decision Tree
• Random Forest

Steps performed

• We prepare and clean the data. We check and impute for missing values.
• Features are generated and the variables are checked for correlation.
• Multiple sampling techinuqies are evaluated. The data set is split into train and test.
• All the above said modelling techniques are tried and evaluated. The final metric used to evaluate is mean squared error.

To excute the script

python3 nonstandard.py

Command to create environment from env.yml file

conda env create -f env.yml

Command to activate the environment
