Problem 13

This question should be answered using the Weekly data set, which is part of the ISLR2 package. This data is similar in nature to the Smarket data from this chapter’s lab, except that it contains 1, 089 weekly returns for 21 years, from the beginning of 1990 to the end of 2010.

  1. Produce some numerical and graphical summaries of the Weekly data. Do there appear to be any patterns? There appears to be a corolation bewtween year and volume.

  1. Use the full data set to perform a logistic regression with Direction as the response and the five lag variables plus Volume as predictors. Use the summary function to print the results. Do any of the predictors appear to be statistically significant? If so, which ones?

Lag 2 is statistically significant.

Problem 14

  1. Create a binary variable, mpg01, that contains a 1 if mpg contains a value above its median, and a 0 if mpg contains a value below its median. You can compute the median using the median() function. Note you may find it helpful to use the data.frame() function to create a single data set containing both mpg01 and the other Auto variables.
mpg01 <- ifelse(Auto$mpg > median(Auto$mpg), 1, 0)
Auto_V <- data.frame(Auto, mpg01)
  1. Explore the data graphically in order to investigate the association between mpg01 and the other features. Which of the other features seem most likely to be useful in predicting mpg01? Scatterplots and boxplots may be useful tools to answer this question. Describe your findings.

Problem 16

Using the Boston data set, fit classification models in order to predict whether a given census tract has a crime rate above or below the median. Explore logistic regression, LDA, naive Bayes, and KNN models using various subsets of the predictors. Describe your findings. Hint: You will have to create the response variable yourself, using the variables that are contained in the Boston data set.

crim01 <- ifelse(Boston$crim > median(Boston$crim), 1, 0)
Boston_V <- data.frame(Boston, crim01)
