Project Description

Predicting Movie Rental Durations

Time to put your regression knowledge to the test! A DVD rental company has approached you to make a regression model which will help predict the number of days a customer rents a DVD. The model will hopefully make their inventory planning much more efficient. You decide to help them by running some regression models and recommending the best-performing model to the company.

    guide indicated that lasso regression to reduce number of columns should be done for all the models, but performance of tree-based models were much worse when that is true. Also, I think the code checked require X and y to be dataframes rather than numpy arrays, which caused an error (I could fix it, but it was annoying)
