The Machine Learning Workshop - Second Edition

4. Supervised Learning Algorithms: Predicting Annual Income

Overview

In this chapter, we will take a look at three different supervised learning algorithms used for classification. We will also solve a supervised learning classification problem using these algorithms and perform error analysis by comparing the results of the three different algorithms.

By the end of this chapter, you will be able to identify the algorithm with the best performance.

Introduction

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

This chapter focuses on applying different algorithms to a real-life dataset, ...
