This document discusses using linear regression with multiple variables to predict home prices based on features like area, bedrooms, and age. It provides sample home price data and uses scikit-learn to build a linear regression model to predict prices. The model is trained on the sample data and used to predict prices for homes with specific area, bedroom, and age configurations. It then discusses a similar exercise using hiring data to predict salaries based on experience, test scores, and interview scores.

Machine Learning With Python: Linear Regression Multiple

Variables

Sample problem of predicting home price in monroe, new jersey (USA)

Below is the table containing home prices in monroe twp, NJ. Here price depends on area
(square feet), bed rooms and age of the home (in years). Given these prices we have to predict
prices of new homes based on area, bed rooms and age.

Given these home prices find out price of a home that has,

3000 sqr ft area, 3 bedrooms, 40 year old

2500 sqr ft area, 4 bedrooms, 5 year old

We will use regression with multiple variables here. Price can be calculated using following
equation,
Here area, bedrooms, age are called independant variables or features whereas price is a
dependant variable

import pandas as pd

import numpy as np

from sklearn import linear_model

df = pd.read_csv('homeprices.csv')

df

area bedrooms age price

0 2600 3.0 20 550000

1 3000 4.0 15 565000

2 3200 NaN 18 610000

3 3600 3.0 30 595000

4 4000 5.0 8 760000

5 4100 6.0 8 810000

Data Preprocessing: Fill NA values with median value of a column

df.bedrooms.median()

4.0

df.bedrooms = df.bedrooms.fillna(df.bedrooms.median())

df

area bedrooms age price

0 2600 3.0 20 550000

1 3000 4.0 15 565000

2 3200 4.0 18 610000

3 3600 3.0 30 595000

4 4000 5.0 8 760000

5 4100 6.0 8 810000

reg = linear_model.LinearRegression()

reg.fit(df.drop('price',axis='columns'),df.price)

LinearRegression(copy_X=True, fit_intercept=True, n_jobs=None,

normalize=False)

reg.coef_

array([ 112.06244194, 23388.88007794, -3231.71790863])

reg.intercept_

221323.00186540408

Find price of home with 3000 sqr ft area, 3 bedrooms, 40 year old

reg.predict([[3000, 3, 40]])

array([498408.25158031])

112.06244194*3000 + 23388.88007794*3 + -3231.71790863*40 + 221323.00186540384

498408.25157402386

Find price of home with 2500 sqr ft area, 4 bedrooms, 5 year old

reg.predict([[2500, 4, 5]])

array([578876.03748933])

Exercise

In exercise folder (same level as this notebook on github) there is hiring.csv. This file contains
hiring statics for a firm such as experience of candidate, his written test score and personal
interview score. Based on these 3 factors, HR will decide the salary. Given this data, you need to
build a machine learning model for HR department that can help them decide salaries for future
candidates. Using this predict salaries for following candidates,

2 yr experience, 9 test score, 6 interview score

12 yr experience, 10 test score, 10 interview score

Answer

53713.86 and 93747.79
