Past Usage: -- Kibler,D., Aha,D.W., Albert,M. (1989). Instance-based prediction

 of real-valued attributes.  it Computational Intelligence, it 5,
 51--57.
-- Predicted price of car using all numeric and Boolean attributes
-- Method: an instance-based learning (IBL) algorithm derived from a
   localized k-nearest neighbor algorithm.  Compared with a
   linear regression predictionso all instances
   with missing attribute values were discarded.  This resulted with
   a training set of 159 instances, which was also used as a test
   set (minus the actual instance during testing).
-- Results: Percent Average Deviation Error of Prediction from Actual
   -- 11.84 for the IBL algorithm
   -- 14.12 for the resulting linear regression equation

Relevant Information: -- Description

 This data set consists of three types of entities: (a) the
 specification of an auto in terms of various characteristics, (b)
 its assigned insurance risk rating, (c) its normalized losses in use
 as compared to other cars.  The second rating corresponds to the
 degree to which the auto is more risky than its price indicates.
 Cars are initially assigned a risk factor symbol associated with its
 price.   Then, if it is more risky (or less), this symbol is
 adjusted by moving it up (or down) the scale.  Actuarians call this
 process "symboling".  A value of +3 indicates that the auto is
 risky, -3 that it is probably pretty safe.

The third factor is the relative average loss payment per insured

 vehicle year.  This value is normalized for all autos within a
 particular size classification (two-door small, station wagons,
 sports/speciality, etc), and represents the average loss per car
 per year.

-- Note: Several of the attributes in the database could be used as a

       "class" attribute.
