Predict new Covid-19 cases with Linear Regression

Data Science project

Project overview

The goal of the project was to start in Python with feature engineering. The project had to predict the cases of covid-19 in Guatemala by May 30.

Value of the research

For how the data behaved visually, it was recommended to use a polynomial regression but that was the challenge to see that many times we need a better fit to the data. A log transformation was applied that gave us a better fit to the data. Still we had to limit ourselves to a simple linear regression. These generated the bias - variance trade off
