Use case on the abalone dataset

Dataset abalone

Machine Learning Task: Regression

This is Abalone data. Predicting the age of abalone from physical measurements. The age of abalone is determined by cutting the shell through the cone, staining it, and counting the number of rings through a microscope. There are other, easier to obtain measurements to predict the age. Further information can be used, such as weather patterns and location (hence food availability).
