The video tutorial covers regression predictive modeling, focusing on linear regression and its application in predicting continuous variables like house prices. It explains the importance of minimizing the differences between actual and predicted values using metrics such as Mean Squared Error (MSE), Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE), and Mean Absolute Error (MAE). The tutorial also discusses the gradient descent algorithm for error minimization and introduces other metrics like residual sum of squares and the coefficient of determination (R2) for evaluating regression models.
