Abstract

Regression analysis is a statistical and machine learning technique that allows you to build a model based on a labelled dataset (such as past data for stocks) that can be used to make predictions. This chapter starts getting into the actual aspects of machine learning. By the end of this chapter, you will be able to perform some simple predictions for new data, based on learning from the labelled dataset (from prior observations).
