File Content: diabetes.rst Diabetes dataset ================ Notes ----- Ten baseline variables, age, sex, body mass index, average blood pressure, and six blood serum measurements were obtained for each of n = 442 diabetes patients, as well as the response of interest, a quantitative measure of disease progression one year after baseline. Data Set Characteristics: :Number of Instances: 442 :Number of Attributes: First 10 columns are numeric predictive values :Target: Column 11 is a quantitative measure of disease progression one year after baseline :Attributes: :Age: :Sex: :Body mass index: :Average blood pressure: :S1: :S2: :S3: :S4: :S5: :S6: Note: Each of these 10 feature variables have been mean centered and scaled by the standard deviation times `n_samples` (i.e. the sum of squares of each column totals 1).
