ML Project Proposal

1. The document describes a machine learning project to predict calories burned during exercise using factors like heart rate, body temperature, and duration. 2. It involves collecting exercise and calorie datasets, preprocessing the data by merging datasets and handling missing values, then analyzing the data and training an XGBoost regressor model. 3. The model's performance is evaluated using mean absolute error on test data and the trained model can then predict calorie burn for new individuals based on their exercise data.

Using Machine Learning.

Problem Statement: Developing a machine


learning model to accurately predict calorie expenditure
during exercise sessions, utilizing factors like heart rate,
body temperature, and duration.

Sub Topic:
a. Data Collection:
How data was collected, mentioning the utilization of
two datasets containing exercise and calorie
information.
b. Data Preprocessing:
The steps taken to prepare the data, including merging
datasets, handling missing values, and converting
categorical variables.
c. Data Analysis:
The process of analyzing the data, focusing on
understanding feature distributions and identifying
correlations.
d. Model Training:
Detail the process of training the model, highlighting
the use of the XGBoost regressor.
e. Model Evaluation:
How the model's performance was assessed on test data,
emphasizing the use of mean absolute error.
f. Building a Predictive System:
How the trained model is used to predict calorie burn
for new individuals based on their exercise data.

Description:

exercise duration.
Employ feature engineering techniques for improved
performance.

Model Architecture:

Utilize the XGBoost regressor for its efficiency and


effectiveness in regression tasks.

Training Process:
