# SVM Regressor Demo πŸ€–
This app demonstrates the use of Support Vector Machines (SVM) for regression problems in various domains. It provides a user-friendly interface to select a problem, visualize the dataset, train an SVM Regressor, and interpret the results.
## Features
* **Problem Selection:** Choose from three example problems: Business πŸ’Ό, Engineering βš™οΈ, or Education πŸŽ“.
* **Dataset Display:** View the corresponding dataset for the selected problem, along with a description of its features.
* **Model Training and Performance:** Train an SVM Regressor on the selected dataset. Display the model's performance using metrics like R-squared and Mean Squared Error. Adjust hyperparameters to fine-tune the model. Visualize the regression results using a scatter plot with a regression line.
* **Output Interpretation:** Get a clear explanation of the model's output in the context of the selected problem. Understand the significance of the results and how they can be used for predictions or decisions.
## Learning Objectives
* Understand the concept of SVM Regression and its applications.
* Learn how to train and evaluate SVM Regressors using Python.
* Explore the impact of different hyperparameters on the model's performance.
* Interpret and explain the results of SVM Regression in various domains.
## Datasets
The app uses three synthetic datasets for demonstration purposes:
* **Business πŸ’Ό:**
* **Features:** `Usage` (in hours), `Demographics` (binary)
* **Target:** `Churn` (continuous)
* **Description:** Predicts customer churn based on usage patterns and demographics.
* **Engineering βš™οΈ:**
* **Features:** `Sensor_Data` (continuous)
* **Target:** `RUL` (Remaining Useful Life) (continuous)
* **Description:** Predicts the remaining useful life of an industrial machine based on sensor data.
* **Education πŸŽ“:**
* **Features:** `Study_Hours` (continuous), `Prev_Grades` (continuous)
* **Target:** `Test_Scores` (continuous)
* **Description:** Predicts student performance on a standardized test based on study habits and previous grades.
## How to Use
1. **Select a Problem:** Choose one of the three problems from the dropdown menu.
2. **View Dataset:** The corresponding dataset will be displayed, along with a description of its features.
3. **Train and Evaluate Model:** Adjust the hyperparameters (kernel, C, epsilon) using the sliders. The model will be trained on the dataset and its performance metrics will be displayed.
4. **Visualize Results:** The regression results will be visualized using a scatter plot with a regression line.
5. **Interpret Output:** Read the interpretation of the model's output in the context of the selected problem.
## Additional Features
* **Interactive Visualizations:** Explore the impact of different hyperparameters on the model's performance by adjusting the sliders and observing the changes in the regression results.
* **Upload Your Own Data:** Train an SVM Regressor on your own dataset by uploading a CSV file. (This feature is not yet implemented.)
