The Integrated ML Pipeline for Vehicle Pricing project aims to provide an efficient and scalable solution for predicting vehicle prices. The project employs several machine learning algorithms, including regression models and ensemble methods, to ensure accurate predictions. The pipeline includes steps for data collection, preprocessing, model training, evaluation, and deployment.
Key features of the project include:
- Data Collection: Automated scripts to gather vehicle data from various online sources.
- Data Preprocessing: Cleaning and transforming raw data into a usable format.
- Model Training: Utilizing different algorithms to train models on the processed data.
- Model Evaluation: Assessing model performance using metrics like RMSE and RΒ².
- Deployment: Instructions for deploying the model for real-time predictions.
You can find the latest releases of this project here. Please download and execute the necessary files to get started.
