Hello everyone welcome back to my data science path’s 7th post , if you haven’t followed my past week blog please read it , so that you can understand how i’m learning and where i’m learning.

1.About this past week

This week is not my week , because i haven’t followed my schedule , because of festivals in Tamil Nadu (Sunday , Monday , Tuesday) , I came back to my college in Wednesday and i joined this Kaggle competition and this my first kaggle competition(I’ll discus this in bellow topic) , Thursday and Friday i got few college works and Saturday i prepared report for my final year project(NLP , DL) and today Sunday i’m writing this post and need to go out with my friends ,

As i said right It’s not good week for me but , but i participated in kaggle competition .

2.Kaggle Competition

The competition i participated is House Prices: Advanced Regression Techniques which is beginner projects where we need to use algorithms like Random Forest , Boosting but i’m not familiar with those algorithms so i picked Linear Regression it’s working fine giving me

80%+ Accuracy with the help of co-relation i selected only 5 features out of 89 features , and used different type of scaling.

Data Scaling
Scoring

But the Root Mean Squared Log is a bit high

My Submission

And my leader board score is
