Dataset

Due to the size, I upload all the dataset to google drive.
In this project, we use data first month which using the first 3 week to predict the last week.

Install

Step1:

1.1 Install Anaconda

Windows聽 macOS聽 Linux聽

1.2 Create Python3.6 environment

conda create -n ee608 python=3.6

Step2:

2.1 Install Jupyter Notebook & JupyterLab

2.2 Install python package

Search and apply the package name below on Anaconda

Or

Using Anaconda Prompt

conda install package-name
  • visualization: matplolib, seaborn, basemap
  • data manipulation: pandas, numpy
  • modeling: scikit-learn, scipy

2.3 Install other package

Search and apply the package name below on Anaconda

  • pydot, python-graphviz, pillow

Step3:

3.1 Start JupyterLab

Run code

Flight delay prediction

flights-delay-prediction.ipynb

Use Shift + Enter to run code step by step.
Then, you can get the result of each process in the middle of the operation.
After run it to the final step, you can get the flight delay prediction result for two model.

Airlines Rank & Recommandation

rank.ipynb

Use Shift + Enter to run code step by step.
Then, you can get the results in the data processing process.
Finally, you can get the rank histogram and the recommandation.

Conclusion

  • Data analysis algorithms are applied to predict flight delay.
  • Airlines are ranked for recommendation purpose.
  • In model 1, cross-validation can avoid bias introduced by splitting data.
  • In model 2, compared with linear regression, polynomial regression with ridge regression is the wining method with MSE (54.99).
  • Include almost all the factors to rank airline for users.
