Regression
Visualization - comparison of models by R and
gradient descent algorithm
For example, weight prediction from height, we visualize the linear prediction models of R
and of the gradient descent algorithm implemented in Python.
Flight time duration prediction from distance
Given a table of flights with their origin, destination, and flight time, we would like to
estimate the length of a proposed flight from Bratislava, Slovakia to Amsterdam, the
Netherlands:
Origin Destination Distance in km Flight duration Flight duration in hours
London Amsterdam 365 1h 10m 1.167
London Budapest 1462 2h 20m 2.333
London Bratislava 1285 2h 15m 2.250
Bratislava Paris 1096 2h 5m 2.083
