original (approx.) data back from PCA, what is the difference in sum of variance of
all columns before and after applying PCA?

What is the sum of eigenvalues calculated for the first 8 records([Link]) with the
independent features?

Marked Answer :
101.76

Compare the performance of two Linear Regression models([Link]):

The first model uses the raw data without any preprocessing.
The second model applies PCA with n_components set to 4 before fitting the data.
Both models should be generated using train_test_split with test_size=0.2 and
random_state=24 during the train-test split.
Your task is to calculate the Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE) for both models and
determine whether the performance of the second model (PCA-based) is better
compared to the first model (raw data).

Marked Answer :
Model 2 performance is not better than Model 1

Compute min correlation in the given dataset?

Marked Answer :
-0.1841
Total Marks :1MARKS OBTAINED0
Compare the performance of two Linear Regression models([Link]):

The first model uses the raw data without any preprocessing.
The second model applies standardscaler only to independent features and then apply
PCA with n_components set to 4 before fitting the data.
Both models should be generated using train_test_split with test_size=0.2 and
random_state=24 during the train-test split.
Your task is to calculate the Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE) for both models and
determine whether the performance of the second model (StandardScalar & PCA-based)
is better compared to the first model (raw data).

Marked Answer :
Model 2 performance is better than Model 1
