# California Housing Price Prediction with FastAPI

## Goal

Build a complete machine learning regression pipeline that predicts California housing prices. Train multiple regression models, select the best performer, deploy it as a FastAPI web service, and validate predictions through API calls.

## Background

You will work with the California Housing dataset. The dataset is pre-split and provided as CSV files:
- `/app/data/train.csv`: Training data with 8 features and target column (16512 samples)
- `/app/data/test.csv`: Test data with 8 features only, no target column (4128 samples)

The 8 features are: MedInc, HouseAge, AveRooms, AveBedrms, Population, AveOccup, Latitude, Longitude
The target is median house value in $100,000s.

Available libraries: scikit-learn (1.6.0), FastAPI (0.115.6), uvicorn (0.34.0), pandas (2.2.3), numpy (2.2.1), requests (2.32.3).

## Steps

### Step 1. Load and Prepare Data

1.1. Unzip the data files:
- Unzip `/app/data/train.zip` to get `/app/data/train.csv`
- Unzip `/app/data/test.zip` to get `/app/data/test.csv`

1.2. Load training data from `/app/data/train.csv`:
- This file contains 8 feature columns and 1 target column (9 columns total)

1.3. Split the training data into train and validation sets:
- Use sklearn's train_test_split
- test_size=0.2
- random_state=42
- Reset DataFrame index before splitting to ensure consistent indexing

1.4. Save split information to `/app/output/split_info.json`:
```json
{
  "train_size": <int>,
  "validation_size": <int>,
  "random_state": 42,
  "test_size": 0.2,
  "train_indices": [<int>, ...],
  "validation_indices": [<int>, ...]
}
```
- train_indices and validation_indices are 0-based row indices from the reset DataFrame
- Indices should be sorted in ascending order

### Step 2. Train Multiple Regression Models

Train at least THREE different regression models:

**Model 1 - Linear Regression:**
- Use LinearRegression from sklearn.linear_model

**Model 2 - Ridge Regression:**
- Use Ridge from sklearn.linear_model

**Model 3 - Random Forest Regressor:**
- Use RandomForestRegressor from sklearn.ensemble

For EACH model:
- Train on the train set (X_train, y_train)
- Calculate training R² score
- Calculate validation R² score
- Calculate validation set metrics: MAE, MSE, RMSE

### Step 3. Select Best Model and Save All Models

3.1. Compare all models based on validation R² score (higher is better)

3.2. Select the model with the highest validation R² score

3.3. Save ALL trained models to `/app/models/` directory:
- `/app/models/linear_regression.pkl`
- `/app/models/ridge.pkl`
- `/app/models/random_forest.pkl`
- `/app/models/best_model.pkl` (copy of the best performing model)
- Save the trained scikit-learn model object directly (not wrapped in a dictionary or metadata object) so that pickle.load() returns an object with a callable predict() method

3.4. Save model comparison to `/app/output/model_comparison.json`:
```json
{
  "models": [
    {
      "model_name": "linear_regression",
      "train_r2": <float>,
      "val_r2": <float>,
      "mae": <float>,
      "mse": <float>,
      "rmse": <float>
    },
    ...
  ],
  "best_model_name": "<string>"
}
```

3.5. Validation quality requirements:
- A properly trained model should achieve on validation set:
  - R² > 0.6
  - MAE < 0.8

### Step 4. Build FastAPI Application

Create a FastAPI application at `/app/api/app.py` with the following requirements:

**Implementation Notes (Recommended):**
- Load the best model from `/app/models/best_model.pkl` at application startup
- Store the model in a module-level or global variable for reuse across requests
- Consider using a startup event handler (e.g., @app.on_event("startup") or lifespan context manager)

**Endpoints:**

**Endpoint 1: POST /predict**
- Input schema:
  ```json
  {
    "features": [float, float, float, float, float, float, float, float]
  }
  ```
- Use the pre-loaded model from application startup
- Output schema:
  ```json
  {
    "prediction": <flo
… (4272 more chars)

<think>This is a comprehensive machine learning pipeline project. Let me break down what I need to do:

1. **Step 1: Load and Prepare Data**
   - Unzip data files
   - Load training data from CSV
   - Split into train/validation sets
   - Save split info to JSON

2. **Step 2: Train Multiple Regression Models**
   - Linear Regression
   - Ridge Regression  
   - Random Forest Regressor
   - Calculate metrics for each

3. **Step 3: Select Best Model and Save All Models**
   - Compare models based on validation R²
   - Save all models to pickle files
   - Save model comparison to JSON

4. **Step 4: Build FastAPI Application**
   - Create app.py with 4 endpoints
   - Load best model at startup
   - Implement prediction, health, model-info, and predict-batch endpoints

5. **Step 5: Start FastAPI Server**
   - Start uvicorn server
   - Verify it's accessible

6. **Step 6: Test API with Validation Set**
   - Make API calls to validation samples
   - Save predictions to CSV

7. **Step 7: Calculate API Performance Metrics**
   - Calculate metrics from API predictions
   - Save to JSON

Let me start by exploring the current directory structure and checking what's available.</think>
I'll help you build a complete California Housing Price Prediction pipeline with FastAPI. Let me start by exploring the current environment and understanding the data structure.

- R²: 0.7985 (> 0.6 ✓)
