In this project, I embarked on a journey to predict Boston house
prices using machine learning and deep learning techniques. The
central focus of the project was to construct a predictive model that
outperforms traditional linear regression by harnessing the power of
neural networks.
Highlights
-
Baseline Linear Regression: Established a baseline
using scikit-learnโs linear regression to serve as a benchmark for
neural network performance.
-
Neural Network Implementation: Designed and
implemented a neural network tailored for predicting Boston house
prices, leveraging its ability to model complex feature
interactions.
-
Feature Engineering: Selected and transformed
relevant features to improve model accuracy.
-
Hyperparameter Tuning: Fine-tuned the neural
network through multiple configurations to maximize predictive
performance.
Outcomes
This project reveals compelling insights by comparing a simple linear
regression model to a neural network using a classic dataset. It
highlights the value of deep learning even in structured, tabular data
and demonstrates a solid workflow from baseline to advanced modeling.
