1️⃣ Data Collection & Preprocessing – Handling missing values, duplicates, outliers
2️⃣ EDA – Visualizing trends & correlations 📊
3️⃣ Feature Engineering – Encoding categorical data, scaling, splitting datasets
4️⃣ Model Training – Experimenting with multiple ML models
5️⃣ Model Selection – Comparing models using evaluation metrics
6️⃣ Web Interface Development – Flask-based UI for easy predictions
7️⃣ Deployment – Hosted on AWS EC2 with ECR & GitHub Actions for CI/CD
🐍 Python (Pandas, NumPy, Scikit-learn, Matplotlib, Seaborn)
📓 Jupyter Notebook – Model training & analysis
🤖 Machine Learning (LinearRegression, RandomForestRegressor, GradientBoostingRegressor, KNeighborsRegressor, XGBRegressor, CatBoostRegressor, AdaBoostRegressor etc.)
🌍 Flask – Web interface for user-friendly predictions
☁ AWS (EC2, ECR) – Cloud deployment & containerized infrastructure
⚡ GitHub Actions – CI/CD automation for deployment
"The CatBoost Regressor achieved an R² score of 0.85 on the test dataset, indicating that the model explains 85% of the variance in unseen data and 0.95 on the train dataset."
