    Logistic Regression Assignment

    Uploaded by

    This document describes a logistic regression assignment to predict whether an individual's annual income is over $50,000 using census data. The data contains over 32,000 records with 15 variables like age, workclass, education, hours worked, native country, and annual income. Questions assess understanding of logistic regression concepts like handling outliers and multicollinearity, and evaluating a logistic regression model in terms of accuracy, specificity, precision, F1 score, and number of correctly classified records.

    Problem Statement:

    Census-income data plays the most important role in the democratic system of
    government, highly affecting the economic sectors. Census-related figures are used
    to allocate federal funding by the government to different states and localities.
    Census data is also used for post census residents estimates and predictions,
    economic and social science research, and many other such applications.
    Therefore, the importance of this data and its accurate predictions is very clear to us.
    The main aim is to increase awareness about how the income factor actually has an
    impact not only on the individual lives of citizens but also an effect on the nation and
    its betterment. You will have a look at the data pulled out from the 1994 Census
    bureau database, and try to find insights into how various features have an effect on
    the income of an individual.
    The data contains approximately 32,000 observations with over 15 variables.
    The strategy is to analyze the data and perform a predictive task of classification to
    predict whether an individual makes over 50K a year or less by using a logistic
    regression algorithm.
