AL/ML Mini Project Workflow
1. Problem ldentification
.Goal:
. Tasks:
Decide what prublem you ate

2. Data Collection
.Goal: Get relevat, clean data for yout
Sources: project
Public datasets (Kaygle, UCi ML
Dta seragping or APls Repository, grvernment portals)
Manually oollected
.Note Ensure data is relevantsurvey data
and suffcient
3. Data Preprocessing
" Goal: Cleas and prepare the data for MiL
"Steps algoriths
o Handle missing values (fil, drop, os
estimate).
Convert categorical to numerical (Labed Encoding, One-ot Encoding)
Feature sealing (Normalization o Standardization)
Remve outliers if necessary
4. Exploraty Data Analysis. (EDA)
" Goal Understand data patterns and relationships
. Tasks:
Pot gaphss (bar charts, histogas, scatter plts, heatnaps).
o Find orelations
ldertify tresds or anomalies

5. Model Selection
Goal: Pick an algorithm suitable for the task.
Exan1ples:
o Classification: Logistie Regression, Decision Tree,
o Regression: Linear Regression, Decision Random Forest, SVM.
Tree Regressor.
Clustering: K-Means, DBSCAN.
6. Model Training
" Goal: Train the chosen ML model
" Process:
with your dataset.
o Split data into training and testing sets
o Train the model on the (e.g., 8O%-20%).
training set.
0 Tune parameters if necessary.
7. Model Evaluation
Goal: Check how well the model works.
Metrics:
o Classification: Accuracy,
Precision,
o Regression: Mean Squared Error Recall, FI-score, Confusion Matrix.
(MSE), R² score.
o Clustering: Silhouette score, Davies
Bouldin index.
8. Model Improvement (if needed)
" Techniques:
o Hyperparameter tuning
o Feature engineering (GridSearchCV, RandomizedSearchCV).
o Try different algorithms.
9. Deployment
Goal: Make your odel usable for
Methods: others.
o Use Flask /Django
for web apps.
Use Streamlit / Gradio for
Export model with joblib orquick MIL demos.
