PROJECT
REGRESSIONANALYSISONHOUSINGPRICE INBAYAREA
(DATASET FROMKAGGLE) Dec 2016 New York, NY
• Used scatter and box plot to do variable selection among 18 variables to build a basic linear model
• Used best-subset method and LOOCV to find the best predictors, comparing models byMSE on testing set
• Analyzed the residuals of models, improving themodel based on Bias-Variance trade-off principle by doing logarithm transformation, adding dummy variables, adding higher termpredictors and interactions, increasing the prediction accuracy by 15%
