# ๐ณ๏ธ Titanic Survival Prediction - Data Science Project
This repository contains a Jupyter Notebook (`_titanic.ipynb`) for a classic machine learning and data science project based on the Titanic dataset. The goal is to predict passenger survival using various machine learning techniques.
---
## ๐ Project Structure
## ๐ Dataset Information
The dataset used is from [Kaggleโs Titanic: Machine Learning from Disaster](https://www.kaggle.com/c/titanic). It includes details about the passengers such as:
- PassengerId
- Survived (Target variable)
- Pclass (Ticket class)
- Name
- Sex
- Age
- SibSp (Siblings/Spouses aboard)
- Parch (Parents/Children aboard)
- Ticket
- Fare
- Cabin
- Embarked (Port of Embarkation)
---
## ๐งช Project Workflow
The notebook covers the following steps:
1. **Importing Libraries**
Basic data analysis and ML libraries like `pandas`, `numpy`, `matplotlib`, `seaborn`, `sklearn`.
2. **Data Loading & Exploration**
Load CSV data, explore structure, identify missing values, and visualize key features.
3. **Data Cleaning & Feature Engineering**
- Handling missing data (e.g., Age, Embarked, Cabin)
- Encoding categorical variables (Sex, Embarked)
- Creating new features (e.g., FamilySize, IsAlone)
4. **Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA)**
- Correlation heatmap
- Survival rate comparisons by class, sex, age
- Visualizations using `seaborn` & `matplotlib`
5. **Model Building**
- Train/Test split
- Algorithms: Logistic Regression, Decision Trees, Random Forest, KNN, SVM
- Model evaluation using accuracy, confusion matrix, cross-validation
6. **Prediction**
- Predict on test data (if available)
- Export results for submission
-
## ๐ Results
Accuracy measures how often the model correctly predicts whether a passenger survived or not. It is calculated as:
Accuracy = (Number of Correct Predictions) / (Total Predictions)
For example, if the model predicts correctly for 82 out of 100 passengers, the accuracy is 82%.
The notebook includes model evaluation and comparison. The best-performing model can be selected for final predictions based on accuracy or cross-validation scores.
