Estimating housing prices
It's time to apply our knowledge to a real world problem. Let's apply all these principles to estimate the housing prices. This is one of the most popular examples that is used to understand regression, and it serves as a good entry point. This is intuitive and relatable, hence making it easier to understand concepts before we perform more complex things in machine learning. We will use a decision tree regressor with AdaBoost to solve this problem.
Getting ready
A decision tree is a tree where each node makes a simple decision that contributes to the final output. The leaf nodes represent the output values, and the branches represent the intermediate decisions that were made, based on input features. AdaBoost stands for ...
