intermediate Python • basics of statistics (regression analysis) • basics of NumPy and pandas
skills learned
detecting multicollinearity with the Variance Inflation Factor • doing a comprehensive regression analysis with Statsmodels • visualizing relationships with seaborn • interpreting "QQ-plots," "Residuals vs. Fitted" plots, and "Scale-Location" plots
In this liveProject, you’ll perform a regression analysis on precleaned data to determine factors relating to American life expectancy. You will learn how to do a comprehensive regression analysis and how to select a model in the presence of multicollinearity. You will use the libraries developed in the second and third projects to check the validity of your final model.
This project is designed for learning purposes and is not a complete, production-ready application or solution.
