Abstract— This paper presents a Laptop price prediction system by using the supervised machine learning
technique. The research uses multiple linear regression as the machine learning prediction method which
offered 81% prediction precision. Using multiple linear regression, there are multiple independent variables
but one and only one dependent variable whose actual and predicted values are compared to find precision of
results. This paper proposes a system where price is dependent variable which is predicted, and this price is
derived from factors like Laptop’s model, RAM, ROM (HDD/SSD), GPU, CPU, IPS Display, and Touch
Screen.
Keywords— Multiple Linear regression, Laptop Price, Regression model, Machine Learning.
I. INTRODUCTION
Laptop price prediction especially when the laptop is coming direct from the factory to Electronic Market/
Stores, is both a critical and important task. The mad rush that we saw in 2020 for laptops to support remote
work and learning is no longer there. In India, demand of Laptops soared after the Nationwide lockdown,
leading to 4.1-Million-unit shipments in the June quarter of 2021, the highest in the five years. Accurate Laptop
price prediction involves expert knowledge, because price usually depends on many distinctive features and
factors. Typically, most significant ones are brand and model, RAM, ROM, GPU, CPU, etc. In this paper, we
applied different methods and techniques in order to achieve higher precision of the used laptop price prediction.
II. RELATED WORK

Predicting price of laptops has been studied extensively in various researches. Listian discussed, in her paper
written for Master thesis, that regression model that was built using Decision Tree & Random Forest Regressor
can predict the price of a laptop that has been leased with better precision than multivariate regression or some
simple multiple regression. This is on the grounds that Decision Tree Algorithm is better in dealing with
datasets with more dimensions and it is less prone to overfitting and underfitting. The weakness of this research
is that a change of simple regression with more advanced Decision Tree Algorithm regression was not shown in
basic indicators like mean, variance or standard deviation.

III. METHODOLOGY
To support the application of machine learning using the Decision Tree algorithm, of course the sample data
is needed. Table below contains data about various laptops and their prices depending on their configuration.
Sample data were obtained from Kaggle.com
The C4.5 algorithm (used as a Decision Tree Classifier which can be employed to generate a decision, based
on sample dataset) starts with the process of selecting the highest gain attribute as the root of the tree, then
creates a branch for each value, then divides the case in branches, then repeats the process for each branch until
all cases in the branch have the same class.

Figure: C 4.5 algorithms flowchart
To get accurate calculation results, calculations used Entropy and Gain for each variable. Entropy measures
uncertainty between random variables in a data. The high Entropy value will affect the classification process.

The equation used to calculate Entropy and Gain, as follows:
S: Case set
k: Number of S partition
Pj: Probability obtained from the total (Yes / No) divided by the total case
S: Case set
A: Attribute
n: Number of A attribute partition
|Si|: Number of cases on the i partition
|S|: Number of S partition
Explanatory Data Analysis (EDA)

Using our feature-engineered dataset, we can now plot graphs and compute tables to visualize how each feature
relates to the variability of laptop prices. By using the barplot method imported from Matplotlib, we can test and
verify our hypothesis or initial opinions on how some features will affect the pricing of laptops. Here’s an
illustration of plotting a barplot for the feature TypeName (type of laptop)

Result
Streamlit library is used to build this WebApp UI. Streamlit is an (open-source Python library) that makes it
easy to create and share, custom web apps for machine learning and data science. Result with backend code is
shown in following figures.

Conclusions
Predicting something through the application of machine learning using the Decision Tree algorithm makes it
easy for students, especially in determining the choice of laptop specifications that are most desirable for
students to meet student needs and in accordance with the purchasing power of students. Students no longer
need to look for various sources to find laptop specifications that are needed by students in meeting the needs of
students, because the laptop specifications from the results of the machine learning application have provided
the most desirable specifications with their prices of laptops.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
Researcher is grateful to the team of entrepreneurs who provide insight and guidance that are very helpful in
completing this research. This research is expected to be useful for students in determining laptop specifications
along with their prices.
