Polynomial regression is a form of regression analysis in which the relationship between the independent variable x and the dependent variable y is modeled as an nth degree polynomial. It is used when the relationship between the variables is non-linear.
In this repository, we demonstrate how to perform polynomial regression using Python. We utilize libraries such as NumPy, pandas, scikit-learn, and matplotlib to implement and visualize the regression model. Additionally, we provide a simple example along with explanations to help you understand how to apply polynomial regression to your own datasets.
