The model is trained on a dataset containing various features related to houses (e.g., square footage, number of rooms, location) to estimate the selling price. + +## Features + +- *Preprocessing*: Handles missing values, outliers, and categorical data. +- *Feature Engineering*: Adds relevant new features to improve model performance. +- *Modeling*: Uses multiple models including Linear Regression, Decision Trees, Random Forest, and Gradient Boosting. +- *Evaluation*: Assesses the model's performance using metrics like RMSE (Root Mean Squared Error) and R² (coefficient of determination). + +## Dataset + +The dataset contains features such as: + +- *Lot Area*: Size of the lot in square feet +- *Year Built*: Year the house was constructed +- *Overall Quality*: Material and finish quality +- *Total Rooms*: Number of rooms excluding bathrooms +- *Neighborhood*: The physical location of the property +- *Sale Price*: The target variable for prediction + +## Setup + +1. Clone the repository: + bash + git clone https://github.com/your-repo/house-price-prediction.git +2. Navigate to the project directory: + bash + cd house-price-prediction +3. Install dependencies: + bash + pip install -r requirements.txt +4. Run the model: + bash + python main.py + +## Model Training + +The model uses the following steps: + +1. Data Preprocessing: Imputing missing values, scaling numerical features, encoding categorical variables. +2. Feature Selection: Selecting the most important features to reduce overfitting. +3. Training: Training multiple models to compare their performances. +3. Evaluation: Checking accuracy using cross-validation and other metrics. + +## Results + +The model achieved a RMSE of X and R² of Y on the test dataset. Gradient Boosting performed the best, followed by Random Forest. + +## Contribution + +Feel free to fork the repository and contribute!
