Preface

I worked on a task from kaggle - Car Price Prediction earlier this week. You can check my submission here https://www.kaggle.com/lekanali/car-price-predictions . It is long and had a hard time deciding which technique not to include in the report. You can read the problem statement below.


Problem Statement

A Chinese automobile company Geely Auto aspires to enter the US market by setting up their manufacturing unit there and producing cars locally to give competition to their US and European counterparts.

They have contracted an automobile consulting company to understand the factors on which the pricing of cars depends. Specifically, they want to understand the factors affecting the pricing of cars in the American market, since those may be very different from the Chinese market. The company wants to know:

Which variables are significant in predicting the price of a car How well those variables describe the price of a car Based on various market surveys, the consulting firm has gathered a large data set of different types of cars across the America market.

Business Goal

We are required to model the price of cars with the available independent variables. It will be used by the management to understand how exactly the prices vary with the independent variables. They can accordingly manipulate the design of the cars, the business strategy etc. to meet certain price levels. Further, the model will be a good way for management to understand the pricing dynamics of a new market.


There is no need to repeat the same process here but what we have in this report is a compilation of all the graphics and some snippets of my kaggle submission. I hope you enjoy it.
