Predicting Shoe Prices Using Machine Learning Algorithms

Akshar S.

This paper investigates the use of machine learning algorithms, particularly Support Vector Regression, to accurately predict shoe prices based on factors like material, color, brand, type, gender, and size, using a dataset of 5000 entries.


This paper explores the application of machine learning algorithms in predicting shoe prices and the correlations between a shoes’ material, color, brand, type, gender, and size and its price. Using a dataset of 5000 shoe entries from Kaggle, the data was preprocessed and turned into numeric values for modeling. The models used include Linear Regression, Decision Tree, Random Forest, Gradient Boosting, and Support Vector Regression. The results show that the Support Vector Regression model had the lowest Mean Squared Error, which means that it can accurately predict shoe prices and find the correlation between a shoes’ make and price.

Backtesting and Machine Learning for a Self-Developed Futures Trading Strategy

This study investigates whether the poor backtesting performance of a discretionary futures trading strategy stems from important subconscious rules that were never formally documented. Testing ten years of Nasdaq-100 and S&P 500 futures data showed that adding an previously unwritten market-structure rule substantially improved performance, while machine learning found short-term price direction largely unpredictable but volatility expansion moderately predictable.

Predicting Repeat Purchases in E-Commerce

The underlying problem here is identifying more efficient upselling strategies for retailer companies. These findings may potentially help a retail company determine the likelihood of a customer purchasing another item based on their first purchase, and then decide how to upsell based on that information.
