# **Loan_Approval_Model**

This project presents an end-to-end Data Analytics pipeline for analyzing startup funding trends in India using Python, MySQL, and Power BI. It involves data cleaning, transformation, storage in a relational database, and visual storytelling via a dynamic dashboard.

# πŸ“Œ 1. Data Cleaning & Preprocessing
βœ”οΈ Removal of unwanted spaces in column names and values (str.strip()) is excellent.

βœ”οΈ Checked for duplicates and nulls.

βœ”οΈ Created a new meaningful feature (total_assets) and dropped redundant columns.

βœ”οΈ Categorical and numerical columns identified clearly.

# Suggestions:

* You could include a missing value imputation step using SimpleImputer for both numeric and categorical data (even if you don't have many nullsβ€”it shows good practice).

* Log-transform or use PowerTransformer for highly skewed features if needed.

# πŸ“Š 2. Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA)
βœ”οΈ Used count plots, scatter plots, and box plots to uncover patterns.

βœ”οΈ Outlier detection via IQR method is excellent.

βœ”οΈ Correlation heatmap is included.

# Suggestions:

* For categorical variables, consider using groupby() with .mean() or .value_counts(normalize=True) to understand their relation with the target variable (loan_status).

* Use pairplot or violin plots for deeper distribution insights (optional).

# 🧠 3. Model Training
βœ”οΈ Used a variety of classification models: Logistic Regression, Decision Tree, Random Forest, SVM, and Gradient Boosting.

βœ”οΈ Built a reusable pipeline with preprocessing and modeling.

βœ”οΈ Evaluated using Accuracy, Precision, Recall, and F1-Score.

βœ”οΈ Created a visual comparison across models (bar plots).

βœ”οΈ Plotted confusion matrices for all models.

# Suggestions:

* Consider using StratifiedKFold cross-validation with cross_val_score for robust model evaluation instead of a single train-test split.

* You might also try XGBoost or LightGBM for better performance in real-world cases.

# πŸ” 4. Hyperparameter Tuning
βœ”οΈ Set up param_grids for multiple models using GridSearchCV.

# Suggestions:

* You might want to isolate and run the GridSearch for the best-performing model (e.g., RandomForest or GradientBoosting).

* Save the best model using joblib or pickle for deployment or reuse.
