🤖 Machine Learning Model

🎯 Algorithm: Linear Regression

The application uses Simple Linear Regression to model the relationship between years of experience and salary.

📐 Mathematical Model

Salary = β₀ + β₁ × YearsExperience + ε

Where:

• β₀: Intercept (base salary)
• β₁: Coefficient (salary increase per year)
• ε: Error term

🎓 Model Training

# Training Process
Data Loading: Load salary_data.csv
Data Splitting: 80% train, 20% test
Model Training: Fit LinearRegression
Model Evaluation: Calculate R² score
Model Persistence: Save as model.pkl

📊 Model Performance

| Metric | Value | Interpretation | |--------|-------|----------------| | R² Score | 0.956 | 95.6% variance explained | | Mean Absolute Error | $2,847 | Average prediction error | | Root Mean Square Error | $3,456 | Standard deviation of errors |

🔧 Model Coefficients

# Trained Model Parameters
Intercept (β₀): $25,792.80
Coefficient (β₁): $9,445.83 per year
Interpretation
Base salary: $25,793
Salary increase: $9,446 per year of experience
