Algerian Forest Fires Prediction (AI/ML Project)
📌 Overview
This project focuses on predicting forest fires in Algeria using machine learning techniques. The model is trained on historical environmental and weather data to determine the likelihood of fire occurrences.
The goal is to help in early detection and prevention of forest fires using data-driven insights.
