A statistical method that models the relationship between variables using a linear equation.
Detailed Explanation
Linear Regression is a fundamental machine learning technique used for predicting a continuous target variable. It models the relationship between one or more independent variables and a dependent variable by fitting a straight line that minimizes the sum of squared differences between observed and predicted values. This method is widely used for its simplicity and interpretability in regression tasks.
Use Cases
•Predicting housing prices based on size and location using linear regression for accurate, interpretable estimates.
