+ -- Predicted price of car using all numeric and Boolean attributes
+ -- Method: an instance-based learning (IBL) algorithm derived from a
+ localized k-nearest neighbor algorithm. Compared with a
+ linear regression prediction...so all instances
+ with missing attribute values were discarded. This resulted with
+ a training set of 159 instances, which was also used as a test
+ set (minus the actual instance during testing).
+ -- Results: Percent Average Deviation Error of Prediction from Actual
+ -- 11.84% for the IBL algorithm
+ -- 14.12% for the resulting linear regression equation
+
+4. Relevant Information:
+ -- Description
+ This data set consists of three types of entities: (a) the
+ specification of an auto in terms of various characteristics, (b)
+ its assigned insurance risk rating, (c) its normalized losses in use
+ as compared to other cars. The second rating corresponds to the
+ degree to which the auto is more risky than its price indicates.
+ Cars are initially assigned a risk factor symbol associated with its
+ price. Then, if it is more risky (or less), this symbol is
+ adjusted by moving it up (or down) the scale. Actuarians call this
+ process "symboling". A value of +3 indicates that the auto is
+ risky, -3 that it is probably pretty safe.
+
+ The third factor is the relative average loss payment per insured
+ vehicle year. This value is normalized for all autos within a
+ particular size classification (two-door small, station wagons,
+ sports/speciality, etc...), and represents the average loss per car
+ per year.
+
+ -- Note: Several of the attributes in the database could be used as a
+ "class" attribute.
