Welcome to COMS 4771 Spring 2022 large-scale regression task. Your goal for this assignment is to develop a good quality regressor for the given dataset.

The given dataset comes from a Uber-esque transportation service. It consists of about 400000 rides taken by users. The task is to predict the duration (in seconds) of the ride.

You can use any resource/code/package/toolbox that is publicly available to develop your regressor. No external data sources can be used. Your primary goal for this assignment is to develop a good quality trip-duration predictor. (This of course will be only possible if you employ good Machine Learning practices).
