Values are standardized with a fitted StandardScaler to match model training distribution.

3. Predict

A trained Ridge Regression model outputs the prediction, rendered instantly.

About the Dataset

  • Regions: Béjaïa (NE), Sidi Bel‑Abbès (NW)
  • Period: June–September 2012
  • 244 instances (122 per region)
  • 11 attributes + 1 target (Fire/Not Fire)

Tips

  • Use realistic ranges (e.g., Temp 15–45°C, RH 10–100%).
  • Keep decimals with a dot (e.g., 0.0 for Rain).
  • Classes & Region should match the numeric encoding from training.
