Simplilearn's Machine Learning Training course is very hands-on and code-driven. The theoretical motivation and Mathematical problem formulation must be provided only when introducing concepts. This course consists of one primary capstone project and 25+ ancillary exercises based on 17 machine learning algorithms. Capstone Project Details: Project Name: Predicting house prices in California Description: The project involves building a model that predicts median house values in Californian districts.You will be given metrics such as population, median income, median housing price and so on for each block group in California.Block groups are the smallest geographical unit for which the US Census Bureau publishes sample data (a lock group typically has a population of 600 to 3,000 people).The model you build should learn from this data and be able to predict the median housing price in any district. Concept covered: Techniques of Machine Learning Case Study 1: Predict whether consumers will buy houses or not, from the given dataset, provided with their age and salary Project 1: What issues do you see in the plot produced by the code in reference to the above problem statement?
