Abstract

Stock Price Prediction is an open-source Data Science project. Stock Price Prediction using Regressions with Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) - Machine Learning Nanodegree capstone project (2017). As already stated in the “Problem Statement” of the Capstone project description in this area, the task will be to build a predictor which will use historical data from online sources, to try to predict future prices. The input to the ML model prediction should be only the date range, and nothing else. It is built using Jupyter Notebook. The complete source code is publicly available on GitHub under the MIT License, making it a useful reference for students building a Data Science mini project or final-year project.

1. Introduction

As already stated in the “Problem Statement” of the Capstone project description in this area, the task will be to build a predictor which will use historical data from online sources, to try to predict future prices. The input to the ML model prediction should be only the date range, and nothing else. The predicted prices should be compared against the available prices for the same date range in the testing period.

2. Objective

Stock Price Prediction using Regressions with Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) - Machine Learning Nanodegree capstone project (2017)

This project demonstrates how Jupyter Notebook can be applied to a real-world Data Science problem.

4. Technology Stack

Jupyter Notebook

5. System Requirements

General requirements for this technology stack — check the README for exact versions.

  • Python 3.8 or later with Jupyter Notebook / JupyterLab (or Google Colab)
  • pip for dependencies
  • Git (to clone the repository)

6. Installation & Setup

git clone https://github.com/samerelhousseini/StockPricePrediction.git
cd StockPricePrediction

Full setup instructions are in the project README.

7. Future Enhancements

Suggested extensions you can add to make this your own project.

  • Turn the analysis into an interactive dashboard
  • Automate data refresh with a scheduled job
  • Add a predictive model on top of the analysis

8. Viva / Review Questions

Common questions examiners ask for projects in this domain.

  1. What is the source of the dataset and how was missing data handled?
  2. Which exploratory analysis steps revealed the most useful insight?
  3. Why were these particular charts chosen to present the data?
  4. Which statistical or ML technique supports the conclusions?
  5. How could the analysis be automated or refreshed with new data?
