Machine Learning - Linear Regression

A simple generic prediction  Maybe the most simple generic prediction is a collection of points, and a linear regression (when applicable) pointing to the future. However, aside from the uncertainty that surrounds most predictions, problem happens all the time along the way. In the very recent years, Covid-19, Russia invasion, and finally, China's lockdown again, and maybe this is not the last impacting event for the early 2020's. Which means that predictions have to be updated all the time. And it is also important to get track of the previous predictions for comparison and for impact analysis. Linear Regression The chart bellow can represent anything that relates to the stated use case above. Two lines which slopes varies, due to a great variation caused by an extremes events.  This model was used for the purpose of the exploration of the Scikit Learn library. The depicted problem is a time series, but the result variable has influence of other factors beyond t
