Data Science and Machine Learning (Theory and Projects) A to Z - Feature Engineering: Derived Features

The video tutorial discusses feature transformation in machine learning, focusing on linear and polynomial regression. It explains how to transform features to improve model performance, using a feature matrix and least squares for linear regression in a two-dimensional space. The tutorial also covers fitting a polynomial regression by transforming features into a higher-dimensional space, demonstrating that complex functions can be simplified through feature transformation.
