glm-bikes	Generalized Linear Models for Bikes Prediction	Academic Project	Predicting the number of bikes rented in a bike-sharing system using Generalized Linear Models and various statistical techniques.	A project applying Generalized Linear Models to predict bike rentals based on environmental and temporal features.	2025-01-24	1	Completed	R Statistics GLM Mathematics	i-ph-bicycle-duotone

This project was completed as part of the Generalized Linear Models course at Paris-Dauphine PSL University. The objective was to develop and compare statistical models that predict bicycle rentals in a bike-sharing system using environmental and temporal features.

::BackgroundTitle{title="Project Objectives"} ::

• Determine the best predictive model for bicycle rental counts
• Analyze the impact of key features (temperature, humidity, wind speed, seasonality, etc.)
• Apply and evaluate different generalized linear modeling techniques
• Validate model assumptions and performance metrics

::BackgroundTitle{title="Methodology"} ::

The study uses a rigorous statistical workflow, including:

• Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA) - Understanding feature distributions and relationships
• Model Comparison - Testing multiple GLM families (Poisson, Negative Binomial, Gaussian)
• Feature Selection - Identifying the most influential variables
• Model Diagnostics - Validating assumptions and checking residuals
• Cross-validation - Ensuring robust performance estimates

::BackgroundTitle{title="Key Findings"} ::

The analysis identified critical factors influencing bike-sharing demand:

• Seasonal patterns and weather conditions
• Temperature and humidity effects
• Holiday and working day distinctions
• Time-based trends and cyclical patterns
