Supervised Learning Algorithms: Predict Annual Income

Learning Objectives

By the end of this chapter, you will be able to:

• Identify the purpose of a case study
• Explain the methodologies of three different supervised learning algorithms used for classification
• Solve a supervised learning classification problem using different algorithms
• Perform error analysis by comparing the results of different algorithms
• Identify the algorithm with the best performance

This chapter describes a practical implementation of a supervised algorithm to a real-world dataset.

Introduction

In the previous chapter, we covered the key steps involved in working with a supervised learning data problem. These steps aim to create high performance algorithms, as ...
