Course contents and projects for CISC820_Quantitative_Foundations taught by Dr. Linwei Wang at RIT in the fall of 2022.

How to run

• Unzip folder

• cd into Project 1: 

cd CISC820_Quantitative_Foundations/Project\ 1

• Run file project_run.m using matlab

• This should create a predictions.txt file with values of y.

• For Bonus points, Random Forest was tested using MATLAB's built in toolbox features. After installing correct toolbox files, run: RamdomForestRegressor(traindata) for testing it. It returns cross validation mean testing MSE error as second output argument:

[~, mean_MSE_crossval] = RamdomForestRegressor(traindata)
