NBA-attendance-prediction
Attendance prediction tool for NBA games using machine learning. Full pipeline implemented in Python from data ingestion to prediction. Attained mean absolute error of around 800 people (about 5% capacity) on test set.
The data is from stats.nba.com via the nba_api on GitHub. I compiled the data through an extraction script, and keep it updated daily via a fully automated Kaggle data pipeline. The pipeline is described here, and the project repository is here

The current iteration contains attendance numbers through the Box Scores within the Game table. It's actually funny you ask about that particular feature; that was my inspiration for creating the dataset in general. I had previously scraped data from basketball-reference.com to use in order to create an attendance prediction tool for NBA stadium organization leaders and struggled to find reliable, robust data. However, via stats.nba.com, the attendance data is rather solid 👍
