Objective: -

Online food ordering is the process of ordering food, for delivery or pickup, from a website or other application.Online ordering means submitting an order of physical items — e.g. food or clothes — over the internet in advance of receiving them. This can be done on a smartphone or computer, in an app or browser.

Online food ordering gives customers the freedom and choice to place an order at virtually any time, from anywhere, saving the time and resources typically spent on travelling to pick up a meal. It also gives the customers the advantage of reordering the favorite order in the easiest and hassle-free manner.

The goal of this challenge is to build a machine learning model that predicts the chances of online food ordering.

Dataset: -

The dataset used in this model is publicly available to use.

Attribute Information:

  1. Age:the age of the customer
  2. Gender: Gender of the customer
  3. Marital_Status:marital status of the customer
  4. Occupation: occupation of the customer
  5. Monthly_Income:monthly income of the customer
  6. Educational_Qualifications:educational qualification of the customer
  7. Family_size:family size of the customer
  8. latitude:latitude of the location of the customer
  9. longitude:longitude of the location of the customer
  10. Pincode:pin code of the residence of the customer
  11. Feedback: Feedback of the last order (Positive or Negative)
  12. Output: did the customer order again

Step 1: Import all the required libraries

  • Pandas : In computer programming, pandas is a software library written for the Python programming language for data manipulation and analysis and storing in a proper way. In particular, it offers data structures and operations for manipulating numerical tables and time series
  • Sklearn : Scikit-learn (formerly scikits.learn) is a free software machine learning library for the Python programming language. It features various classification, regression and clustering algorithms including support vector machines, random forests, gradient boosting, k-means and DBSCAN, and is designed to interoperate with the Python numerical and scientific libraries NumPy and SciPy. The library is built upon the SciPy (Scientific Python) that must be installed before you can use scikit-learn.
  • Pickle : Python pickle module is used for serializing and de-serializing a Python object structure. Pickling is a way to convert a python object (list, dict, etc.) into a character stream. The idea is that this character stream contains all the information necessary to reconstruct the object in another python script.
  • Seaborn : Seaborn is a Python data visualization library based on matplotlib. It provides a high-level interface for drawing attractive and informative statistical graphics.
  • Matplotlib : Matplotlib is a plotting library for the Python programming language and its numerical mathematics extension NumPy. It provides an object-oriented API for embedding plots into applications using general-purpose GUI toolkits like Tkinter, wxPython, Qt, or GTK.
#Loading libraries

from sklearn.linear_model import LinearRegression, Ridge, RidgeCV, Lasso, LassoCV
from sklearn.model_selection import KFold, cross_val_score, train_test_split
import warnings

warnings.filterwarnings('ignore')

Step 2 : Read dataset and basic details of dataset

Goal:- In this step we are going to read the dataset, view the dataset and analysis the basic details like total number of rows and columns, what are the column data types and see to need to create new column or not.

In this stage we are going to read our problem dataset and have a look on it.

#loading the dataset
try:
df = pd.read_csv('C:/Users/Sakshi Rohida/Desktop/deepak sir ML projects/Online_food_order/data/onlinefoods.csv') #Path for the file
print('Data read done successfully...')
except (FileNotFoundError, IOError):
print("Wrong file or file path")
Data read done successfully...# To view the content inside the dataset we can use the head() method that returns a specified number of rows, string from the top.
# The head() method returns the first 5 rows if a number is not specified.
df.head()

Step3: Data Preprocessing

Why need of Data Preprocessing?

Preprocessing data is an important step for data analysis. The following are some benefits of preprocessing data:

  • It improves accuracy and reliability. Preprocessing data removes missing or inconsistent data values resulting from human or computer error, which can improve the accuracy and quality of a dataset, making it more reliable.
  • It makes data consistent. When collecting data, it’s possible to have data duplicates, and discarding them during preprocessing can ensure the data values for analysis are consistent, which helps produce accurate results.
  • It increases the data’s algorithm readability. Preprocessing enhances the data’s quality and makes it easier for machine learning algorithms to read, use, and interpret it.

Why we drop column?

By analysing the first five rows we found that there is a column named [‘Unnamed: 32’], it has only NAN(Not A Number) values which isn’t good for our model, se we gonna drop it using the below method:

df = df.drop(['Unnamed: 12'], axis =1)

Axis are defined for arrays with more than one dimension. A 2-dimensional array has two corresponding axes: the first running vertically downwards across rows (axis 0) and the second running horizontally across columns (axis 1).

(axis=1) defines that the column named (‘Unnamed: 32’) should be dropped from the dataset.

After we read the data, we can look at the data using:

# count the total number of rows and columns.
print ('The train data has {0} rows and {1} columns'.format(df.shape[0],df.shape[1]))
The train data has 388 rows and 12 columnsdf['Output'].value_counts()Yes 301
No 87
Name: Output, dtype: int64

The df.value_counts() method counts the number of types of values a particular column contains.

df.shape(388, 12)

The df.shape method shows the shape of the dataset.

df.info()<class 'pandas.core.frame.DataFrame'>
RangeIndex: 388 entries, 0 to 387
Data columns (total 12 columns):
# Column Non-Null Count Dtype
--- ------ -------------- -----
0 Age 388 non-null int64
1 Gender 388 non-null object
2 Marital Status 388 non-null object
3 Occupation 388 non-null object
4 Monthly Income 388 non-null object
5 Educational Qualifications 388 non-null object
6 Family size 388 non-null int64

10 Output 388 non-null object
11 Feedback 388 non-null object
dtypes: float64(2), int64(3), object(7)
memory usage: 36.5+ KB

The df.info() method prints information about a DataFrame including the index dtype and columns, non-null values and memory usage.

df.iloc[1]Age                                       24

Name: 1, dtype: object

df.iloc[ ] is primarily integer position based (from 0 to length-1 of the axis), but may also be used with a boolean array. The iloc property gets, or sets, the value(s) of the specified indexes.

Data Type Check for every column

Why data type check is required?

Data type check helps us with understanding what type of variables our dataset contains. It helps us with identifying whether to keep that variable or not. If the dataset contains contiguous data, then only float and integer type variables will be beneficial and if we have to classify any value then categorical variables will be beneficial.

objects_cols = ['object']
objects_lst = list(df.select_dtypes(include=objects_cols).columns)
print("Total number of categorical columns are ", len(objects_lst))
print("There names are as follows: ", objects_lst)
Total number of categorical columns are 7
There names are as follows: ['Gender', 'Marital Status', 'Occupation', 'Monthly Income', 'Educational Qualifications', 'Output', 'Feedback']
int64_cols = ['int64']
int64_lst = list(df.select_dtypes(include=int64_cols).columns)
print("Total number of numerical columns are ", len(int64_lst))
print("There names are as follows: ", int64_lst)
Total number of numerical columns are 3
There names are as follows: ['Age', 'Family size', 'Pin code']
float64_cols = ['float64']
float64_lst = list(df.select_dtypes(include=float64_cols).columns)
print("Total number of float64 columns are ", len(float64_lst))
print("There name are as follow: ", float64_lst)
Total number of float64 columns are 2
There name are as follow: ['latitude', 'longitude']
#count the total number of rows and columns.
print ('The new dataset has {0} rows and {1} columns'.format(df.shape[0],df.shape[1]))
The new dataset has 388 rows and 12 columns

Step 2 Insights: -

  1. We have total 12 features where 3 of them is integer type, 2 are float type.

After this step we have to calculate various evaluation parameters which will help us in cleaning and analysing the data more accurately.

Step 3: Descriptive Analysis

Goal/Purpose: Finding the data distribution of the features. Visualization helps to understand data and also to explain the data to another person.

Things we are going to do in this step:

  1. Mean
  2. Median
  3. Mode
  4. Standard Deviation
  5. Variance
  6. Null Values
  7. NaN Values
  8. Min value
  9. Max value
  10. Count Value
  11. Quatilers
  12. Correlation
  13. Skewness
df.describe()
png

The df.describe() method returns description of the data in the DataFrame. If the DataFrame contains numerical data, the description contains these information for each column: count — The number of not-empty values. mean — The average (mean) value.

Measure the variability of data of the dataset

Variability describes how far apart data points lie from each other and from the center of a distribution.

1. Standard Deviation

The standard deviation is the average amount of variability in your dataset.

It tells you, on average, how far each data point lies from the mean. The larger the standard deviation, the more variable the data set is and if zero variance then there is no variability in the dataset that means there no use of that dataset.

So, it helps in understanding the measurements when the data is distributed. The more the data is distributed, the greater will be the standard deviation of that data.Here, you as an individual can determine which company is beneficial in long term. But, if you didn’t know the SD you would have choosen a wrong compnay for you.

df.std()Age             2.975593
Family size 1.351025
latitude 0.044489
longitude 0.051354
Pin code 31.399609
dtype: float64

We can also understand the standard deviation using the below function.

def std_cal(df,float64_lst):

cols = ['normal_value', 'zero_value']
zero_value = 0
normal_value = 0

for value in float64_lst:

rs = round(df[value].std(),6)

if rs > 0:
normal_value = normal_value + 1

elif rs == 0:
zero_value = zero_value + 1

std_total_df = pd.DataFrame([[normal_value, zero_value]], columns=cols)

return std_total_df
int64_cols = ['int64']
int64_lst = list(df.select_dtypes(include=int64_cols).columns)
std_cal(df,int64_lst)
png

zero_value -> is the zero variance and when then there is no variability in the dataset that means there no use of that dataset.

2. Variance

The variance is the average of squared deviations from the mean. A deviation from the mean is how far a score lies from the mean.

Variance is the square of the standard deviation. This means that the units of variance are much larger than those of a typical value of a data set.

Why do we used Variance ?

By Squairng the number we get non-negative computation i.e. Disperson cannot be negative. The presence of variance is very important in your dataset because this will allow the model to learn about the different patterns hidden in the data

df.var()Age              8.854152
Family size 1.825268
latitude 0.001979
longitude 0.002637
Pin code 985.935427
dtype: float64

We can also understand the Variance using the below function.

zero_cols = []

def var_cal(df,float64_lst):

cols = ['normal_value', 'zero_value']
zero_value = 0
normal_value = 0

for value in float64_lst:

rs = round(df[value].var(),6)

if rs > 0:
normal_value = normal_value + 1

elif rs == 0:
zero_value = zero_value + 1
zero_cols.append(value)

var_total_df = pd.DataFrame([[normal_value, zero_value]], columns=cols)

return var_total_df
var_cal(df, int64_lst)
png

zero_value -> Zero variance means that there is no difference in the data values, which means that they are all the same.

Measure central tendency

A measure of central tendency is a single value that attempts to describe a set of data by identifying the central position within that set of data. As such, measures of central tendency are sometimes called measures of central location. They are also classed as summary statistics.

Mean — The average value. Median — The mid point value. Mode — The most common value.

1. Mean

The mean is the arithmetic average, and it is probably the measure of central tendency that you are most familiar.

Why do we calculate mean?

The mean is used to summarize a data set. It is a measure of the center of a data set.

df.mean()Age                24.628866
Family size 3.280928
latitude 12.972058
longitude 77.600160
Pin code 560040.113402
dtype: float64

We can also understand the mean using the below function.

def mean_cal(df,int64_lst):

cols = ['normal_value', 'zero_value']
zero_value = 0
normal_value = 0

for value in int64_lst:

rs = round(df[value].mean(),6)

if rs > 0:
normal_value = normal_value + 1

elif rs == 0:
zero_value = zero_value + 1

mean_total_df = pd.DataFrame([[normal_value, zero_value]], columns=cols)

return mean_total_df
mean_cal(df, int64_lst)
png

zero_value -> that the mean of a paticular column is zero, which isn’t usefull in anyway and need to be drop.

2.Median

The median is the middle value. It is the value that splits the dataset in half.The median of a dataset is the value that, assuming the dataset is ordered from smallest to largest, falls in the middle. If there are an even number of values in a dataset, the middle two values are the median.

Why do we calculate median ?

By comparing the median to the mean, you can get an idea of the distribution of a dataset. When the mean and the median are the same, the dataset is more or less evenly distributed from the lowest to highest values.The median will depict that the patient below median is Malignent and above that are Benign.

df.median()Age                24.0000
Family size 3.0000
latitude 12.9770
longitude 77.5921
Pin code 560033.5000
dtype: float64

We can also understand the median using the below function.

def median_cal(df,int64_lst):

cols = ['normal_value', 'zero_value']
zero_value = 0
normal_value = 0

for value in float64_lst:

rs = round(df[value].mean(),6)

if rs > 0:
normal_value = normal_value + 1

elif rs == 0:
zero_value = zero_value + 1

median_total_df = pd.DataFrame([[normal_value, zero_value]], columns=cols)

return median_total_df

zero_value -> that the median of a paticular column is zero which isn’t usefull in anyway and need to be drop.

Null and Nan values

  1. Null Values

A null value in a relational database is used when the value in a column is unknown or missing. A null is neither an empty string (for character or datetime data types) nor a zero value (for numeric data types).

df.isnull().sum()Age                           0
Gender 0
Marital Status 0
Occupation 0
Monthly Income 0
Educational Qualifications 0
Family size 0
latitude 0
longitude 0
Pin code 0
Output 0
Feedback 0
dtype: int64

As we notice that there are no null values in our dataset.

  1. Nan Values

NaN, standing for Not a Number, is a member of a numeric data type that can be interpreted as a value that is undefined or unrepresentable, especially in floating-point arithmetic.

df.isna().sum()Age                           0
Gender 0
Marital Status 0
Occupation 0
Monthly Income 0
Educational Qualifications 0
Family size 0
latitude 0
longitude 0
Pin code 0
Output 0
Feedback 0
dtype: int64

As we notice that there are no nan values in our dataset.

Another way to remove null and nan values is to use the method “df.dropna(inplace=True)”.

Count of unique occurences of every value in all categorical value

  • Categorical data are variables that contain label values rather than numeric values.The number of possible values is often limited to a fixed set.
  • Use Label Encoder to label the categorical data. Label Encoder is the part of SciKit Learn library in Python and used to convert categorical data, or text data, into numbers, which our predictive models can better understand.

Label Encoding refers to converting the labels into a numeric form so as to convert them into the machine-readable form. Machine learning algorithms can then decide in a better way how those labels must be operated. It is an important pre-processing step for the structured dataset in supervised learning.

#Before Encoding

Skewness

Skewness is a measure of the asymmetry of a distribution. A distribution is asymmetrical when its left and right side are not mirror images. A distribution can have right (or positive), left (or negative), or zero skewness

Why do we calculate Skewness ?

Skewness gives the direction of the outliers if it is right-skewed, most of the outliers are present on the right side of the distribution while if it is left-skewed, most of the outliers will present on the left side of the distribution

Below is the function to calculate skewness.

def right_nor_left(df, int64_lst):

temp_skewness = ['column', 'skewness_value', 'skewness (+ve or -ve)']
temp_skewness_values = []

temp_total = ["positive (+ve) skewed", "normal distrbution" , "negative (-ve) skewed"]
positive = 0
negative = 0
normal = 0

for value in float64_lst:

rs = round(df[value].skew(),4)

if rs > 0:
temp_skewness_values.append([value,rs , "positive (+ve) skewed"])
positive = positive + 1

elif rs == 0:
temp_skewness_values.append([value,rs,"normal distrbution"])
normal = normal + 1

elif rs < 0:
temp_skewness_values.append([value,rs, "negative (-ve) skewed"])
negative = negative + 1

skewness_df = pd.DataFrame(temp_skewness_values, columns=temp_skewness)
skewness_total_df = pd.DataFrame([[positive, normal, negative]], columns=temp_total)

return skewness_df, skewness_total_df
float64_cols = ['float64']
float64_lst_col = list(df.select_dtypes(include=float64_cols).columns)

skew_df,skew_total_df = right_nor_left(df, float64_lst_col)
skew_df
png
skew_total_df
png

We notice with the above results.

Step 3 Insights: -

With the statistical analysis we have found that the data have a lot of skewness in them all the columns are positively skewed with mostly zero variance.

Statistical analysis is little difficult to understand at one glance so to make it more understandable we will perform visulatization on the data which will help us to understand the process easily.

Why we are calculating all these metrics?

Mean / Median /Mode/ Variance /Standard Deviation are all very basic but very important concept of statistics used in data science. Almost all the machine learning algorithm uses these concepts in data preprocessing steps. These concepts are part of descriptive statistics where we basically used to describe and understand the data for features in Machine learning

Step 4: Data Exploration

Goal/Purpose:

Graphs we are going to develop in this step

  1. Histogram of all columns to check the distrubution of the columns
  2. Distplot or distribution plot of all columns to check the variation in the data distribution
  3. Heatmap to calculate correlation within feature variables
  4. Boxplot to find out outlier in the feature columns

1. Histogram

A histogram is a bar graph-like representation of data that buckets a range of classes into columns along the horizontal x-axis.The vertical y-axis represents the number count or percentage of occurrences in the data for each column

# Distribution in attributes
%matplotlib inline
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
df.hist(bins=50, figsize=(30,30))
plt.show()
png

Histogram Insight: -

Histogram helps in identifying the following:

  • View the shape of your data set’s distribution to look for outliers or other significant data points.
  • Determine whether something significant has boccurred from one time period to another.

Why Histogram?

It is used to illustrate the major features of the distribution of the data in a convenient form. It is also useful when dealing with large data sets (greater than 100 observations). It can help detect any unusual observations (outliers) or any gaps in the data.

From the above graphical representation we can identify that the highest bar represents the outliers which is above the maximum range.

We can also identify that the values are moving on the right side, which determines positive and the centered values determines normal skewness.

2. Distplot

A Distplot or distribution plot, depicts the variation in the data distribution. Seaborn Distplot represents the overall distribution of continuous data variables. The Seaborn module along with the Matplotlib module is used to depict the distplot with different variations in it

num = [f for f in df.columns if df.dtypes[f] != 'object']
nd = pd.melt(df, value_vars = num)
n1 = sns.FacetGrid (nd, col='variable', col_wrap=4, sharex=False, sharey = False)
n1 = n1.map(sns.distplot, 'value')
n1
<seaborn.axisgrid.FacetGrid at 0x19f4fd24250>
png

Distplot: -

Above is the distrution bar graphs to confirm about the statistics of the data about the skewness.

Why Distplot?

Skewness is demonstrated on a bell curve when data points are not distributed symmetrically to the left and right sides of the median on a bell curve. If the bell curve is shifted to the left or the right, it is said to be skewed.

We can observe that the bell curve is shifted to left we indicates positive skewness.

Let’s proceed and check the distribution of the target variable.

#+ve skewed 
df['Output'].skew()
-1.3275623887195365

The target variable is negatively skewed.A normally distributed (or close to normal) target variable helps in better modeling the relationship between target and independent variables.

3. Heatmap

A heatmap (or heat map) is a graphical representation of data where values are depicted by color.Heatmaps make it easy to visualize complex data and understand it at a glance

Correlation — A positive correlation is a relationship between two variables in which both variables move in the same direction. Therefore, when one variable increases as the other variable increases, or one variable decreases while the other decreases.

Correlation can have a value:

  • 1 is a perfect positive correlation
  • 0 is no correlation (the values don’t seem linked at all)
  • -1 is a perfect negative correlation
#correlation plot
sns.set(rc = {'figure.figsize':(25,20)})
corr = df.corr().abs()
sns.heatmap(corr,annot=True)
plt.show()
png
print (corr['Output'].sort_values(ascending=False)[:15], '\n') #top 15 values
print ('----------------------')
print (corr['Output'].sort_values(ascending=False)[-5:]) #last 5 values`

Heatmap insights: -

As we know, it is recommended to avoid correlated features in your dataset. Indeed, a group of highly correlated features will not bring additional information (or just very few), but will increase the complexity of the algorithm, hence increasing the risk of errors.

Why Heatmap?

Heatmaps are used to show relationships between two variables, one plotted on each axis. By observing how cell colors change across each axis, you can observe if there are any patterns in value for one or both variables.

# Create correlation matrix
corr_matrix = df.corr().abs()

# Select upper triangle of correlation matrix
upper = corr_matrix.where(np.triu(np.ones(corr_matrix.shape), k=1).astype(np.bool_))

# Find index of feature columns with correlation greater than 0.8
to_drop = [column for column in upper.columns if any(upper[column] > 0.8)]
to_drop[]df.head()
png
df.info()<class 'pandas.core.frame.DataFrame'>
RangeIndex: 388 entries, 0 to 387
Data columns (total 12 columns):
# Column Non-Null Count Dtype
--- ------ -------------- -----
0 Age 388 non-null int64
1 Gender 388 non-null int32
2 Marital_Status 388 non-null int32
3 Occupation 388 non-null int64
4 Monthly_Income 388 non-null int32
5 Educational_Qualifications 388 non-null int32
6 Family_size 388 non-null int64
7 latitude 388 non-null float64
8 longitude 388 non-null float64
9 Pincode 388 non-null int64
10 Output 388 non-null int32
11 Feedback 388 non-null int32
dtypes: float64(2), int32(6), int64(4)
memory usage: 27.4 KB

Here, we are checking which columns we have after “to-drop”.

4. Boxplot

A boxplot is a standardized way of displaying the distribution of data based on a five number summary (“minimum”, first quartile [Q1], median, third quartile [Q3] and “maximum”).

Basically, to find the outlier in a dataset/column.

The dark points are known as Outliers. Outliers are those data points that are significantly different from the rest of the dataset. They are often abnormal observations that skew the data distribution, and arise due to inconsistent data entry, or erroneous observations.

Boxplot Insights: -

  • Sometimes outliers may be an error in the data and should be removed. In this case these points are correct readings yet they are different from the other points that they appear to be incorrect.
  • The best way to decide wether to remove them or not is to train models with and without these data points and compare their validation accuracy.
  • So we will keep it unchanged as it won’t affect our model.

Here, we can see that most of the variables possess outlier values. It would take us days if we start treating these outlier values one by one. Hence, for now we’ll leave them as is and let our algorithm deal with them. As we know, tree-based algorithms are usually robust to outliers.

Why Boxplot?

Box plots are used to show distributions of numeric data values, especially when you want to compare them between multiple groups. They are built to provide high-level information at a glance, offering general information about a group of data’s symmetry, skew, variance, and outliers.

In the next step we will divide our cleaned data into training data and testing data.

Step 2: Data Preparation

Goal:-

Tasks we are going to in this step:

  1. Now we will spearate the target variable and feature columns in two different dataframe and will check the shape of the dataset for validation purpose.
  2. Split dataset into train and test dataset.
  3. Scaling on train dataset.

1. Now we spearate the target variable and feature columns in two different dataframe and will check the shape of the dataset for validation purpose.

# Separate target and feature column in X and y variable

target = 'Output'

# X will be the features
X = df.drop(target,axis=1)
#y will be the target variable
y = df[target]
X.info()<class 'pandas.core.frame.DataFrame'>
RangeIndex: 388 entries, 0 to 387
Data columns (total 11 columns):
# Column Non-Null Count Dtype

# Check the shape of X and y variable
X.shape, y.shape
((388, 11), (388,))# Reshape the y variable
y = y.values.reshape(-1,1)
# Again check the shape of X and y variable
X.shape, y.shape
((388, 11), (388, 1))

2. Spliting the dataset in training and testing data.

Here we are spliting our dataset into 80/20 percentage where 80% dataset goes into the training part and 20% goes into testing part.

# Split the X and y into X_train, X_test, y_train, y_test variables with 80-20% split.
X_train, X_test, y_train, y_test = train_test_split(X, y, test_size=0.2, random_state=42)
# Check shape of the splitted variables
X_train.shape, X_test.shape, y_train.shape, y_test.shape
((310, 11), (78, 11), (310, 1), (78, 1))

Insights: -

Train test split technique is used to estimate the performance of machine learning algorithms which are used to make predictions on data not used to train the model.It is a fast and easy procedure to perform, the results of which allow you to compare the performance of machine learning algorithms for your predictive modeling problem. Although simple to use and interpret, there are times when the procedure should not be used, such as when you have a small dataset and situations where additional configuration is required, such as when it is used for classification and the dataset is not balanced.

In the next step we will train our model on the basis of our training and testing data.

Step 3: Model Training

Goal:

In this step we are going to train our dataset on different classification algorithms. As we know that our target variable is in discrete format so we have to apply classification algorithm. Target variable is a category like filtering.In our dataset we have the outcome variable or Dependent variable i.e Y having only two set of values, either M (Malign) or B(Benign). So we will use Classification algorithm**

Algorithms we are going to use in this step

  1. Logistic Regression
  2. KNearest Neighbor
  3. Random Forest Classification

K-fold cross validation is a procedure used to estimate the skill of the model on new data. There are common tactics that you can use to select the value of k for your dataset. There are commonly used variations on cross-validation, such as stratified and repeated, that are available in scikit-learn

# Define kfold with 10 split
cv = KFold(n_splits=10, shuffle=True, random_state=42)

The goal of cross-validation is to test the model’s ability to predict new data that was not used in estimating it, in order to flag problems like overfitting or selection bias and to give an insight on how the model will generalize to an independent dataset (i.e., an unknown dataset, for instance from a real problem).

1. Logistic Regression

Logistic regression is one of the most popular Machine Learning algorithms, which comes under the Supervised Learning technique. It is used for predicting the categorical dependent variable using a given set of independent variables.

Logistic regression predicts the output of a categorical dependent variable. Therefore the outcome must be a categorical or discrete value. It can be either Yes or No, 0 or 1, true or False, etc. but instead of giving the exact value as 0 and 1, it gives the probabilistic values which lie between 0 and 1.

Train set cross-validation

#Using Logistic Regression Algorithm to the Training Set
from sklearn.linear_model import LogisticRegression

log_R = LogisticRegression() #Object Creation

log_R.fit(X_train, y_train)
LogisticRegression()#Accuracy check of trainig data

#Get R2 score
log_R.score(X_train, y_train)
0.7580645161290323#Accuracy of test data
log_R.score(X_test, y_test)
0.8461538461538461# Getting kfold values
lg_scores = -1 * cross_val_score(log_R,
X_train,
y_train,
cv=cv,
scoring='neg_root_mean_squared_error')
lg_scores
array([0.50800051, 0.40160966, 0.43994135, 0.47519096, 0.53881591,
0.5956834 , 0.53881591, 0.40160966, 0.56796183, 0.40160966])
# Mean of the train kfold scores
lg_score_train = np.mean(lg_scores)
lg_score_train
0.48692388533190467

Prediction

Now we will perform prediction on the dataset using Logistic Regression.

# Predict the values on X_test_scaled dataset 
y_predicted = log_R.predict(X_test)

Various parameters are calculated for analysing the predictions.

  1. Confusion Matrix 2)Classification Report 3)Accuracy Score 4)Precision Score 5)Recall Score 6)F1 Score

Confusion Matrix

A confusion matrix presents a table layout of the different outcomes of the prediction and results of a classification problem and helps visualize its outcomes. It plots a table of all the predicted and actual values of a classifier.

This diagram helps in understanding the concept of confusion matrix.

Evaluating all kinds of evaluating parameters.

Classification Report :

A classification report is a performance evaluation metric in machine learning. It is used to show the precision, recall, F1 Score, and support of your trained classification model.

F1_score :

The F1 score is a machine learning metric that can be used in classification models.

Precision_score :

The precision is the ratio tp / (tp + fp) where tp is the number of true positives and fp the number of false positives. The precision is intuitively the ability of the classifier not to label as positive a sample that is negative. The best value is 1 and the worst value is 0.

Recall_score :

Recall score is used to measure the model performance in terms of measuring the count of true positives in a correct manner out of all the actual positive values. Precision-Recall score is a useful measure of success of prediction when the classes are very imbalanced.

print("\nThe accuracy is: {}".format(l_acc))
The model used is Logistic Regression

The accuracy is: 0.8974358974358975

2. K Nearest Neighbor

K-Nearest Neighbour is one of the simplest Machine Learning algorithms based on Supervised Learning technique. K-NN algorithm assumes the similarity between the new case/data and available cases and put the new case into the category that is most similar to the available categories. K-NN algorithm stores all the available data and classifies a new data point based on the similarity. This means when new data appears then it can be easily classified into a well suite category by using K- NN algorithm

#Using KNeighborsClassifier Method of neighbors class to use Nearest Neighbor algorithm
from sklearn.neighbors import KNeighborsClassifier
classifier = KNeighborsClassifier()
classifier.fit(X_train, y_train)

print("\nThe accuracy is: {}".format(k_acc))

3. Random Forest Classifier

Random Forest is a powerful and versatile supervised machine learning algorithm that grows and combines multiple decision trees to create a “forest.” It can be used for both classification and regression problems in R and Python.

Random Forest and Decision Tree Algorithm are considered best for the data that has outliers.

#Using RandomForestClassifier method of ensemble class to use Random Forest Classification algorithm

from sklearn.ensemble import RandomForestClassifier
#clas = RandomForestClassifier(n_estimators = 10, criterion = 'entropy', random_state = 0)
clas = RandomForestClassifier()
clas.fit(X_train, y_train)
RandomForestClassifier()#Accuracy check of trainig data
#Get R2 score

  • We can go for Random Forest Model(88.46%).Though accuracy of each used is very close.
  • So we gonna save our model with Random Forest Algorithm

Step 4: Save Model

Goal:- In this step we are going to save our model in pickel format file.

import pickle
pickle.dump(log_R , open('online_food_order_prediction_logistic.pkl', 'wb'))
pickle.dump(classifier , open('online_food_order_prediction_KNearest.pkl', 'wb'))
pickle.dump(clas , open('online_food_order_prediction_RandomForest.pkl', 'wb'))
import pickle

def model_prediction(features):

pickled_model = pickle.load(open('online_food_order_prediction_RandomForest.pkl', 'rb'))
Output = str(list(pickled_model.predict(features)))

return str(f'The output is {Output}')

We can test our model by giving our own parameters or features to predict.

Age = 22
Gender = 0
Marital_Status = 2
Occupation = 3
Monthly_Income = 2
Educational_Qualifications = 2
Family_size = 2
latitude = 12.9551
longitude = 77.5992
Pincode = 560001
Feedback = 1
model_prediction([[Age,Gender,Marital_Status,Occupation,Monthly_Income,Educational_Qualifications,Family_size,latitude,longitude,Pincode,Feedback]])'The output is [1]'

1 = Yes, 0 = No

Conclusion

After observing the problem statement we have build an efficient model to overcome it. The above model helps to predict the online food order. The accuracy for the prediction is 88% and it signifies the accurate prediction of the order.
