Abstract MainProject
In today’s automotive market, accurately predicting the price of second-hand cars is crucial
for buyers and sellers to make informed decisions. This project presents a machine learning-
based approach to forecasting the resale value of used cars based on various factors such as
vehicle age, kilometers driven, fuel type, seller type, transmission mode, and ownership
history.
The dataset undergoes extensive preprocessing, including handling missing values, feature
engineering (such as deriving vehicle age from the manufacturing year), and encoding
categorical variables for model compatibility. Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA) is performed
to identify correlations and patterns among features, helping in the selection of relevant
attributes for model training.
A machine learning model is then trained on the processed dataset to predict car prices
efficiently. Performance evaluation is conducted using appropriate metrics to ensure
accuracy and reliability. The proposed model serves as a valuable tool for car dealerships
and individual sellers, enabling data-driven pricing strategies and enhancing transparency in
the used car market.
