Abstract

Artificial intelligence is being used in the real estate industry to provide consumers with information that will make effective decisions to buy real estate. Additionally, it facilitates the optimal utilization of data by real estate business operators, which includes generating possibilities and raising competitive worth. This Article aimed to test the effectiveness of machine learning techniques in modeling for forecasting the selling prices of non-performing asset (NPA) detached houses in Bangkok.  The research method is quantitative and uses machine learning concepts as the research framework. Data were gathered from 446 samples of non-performing asset (NPA) detached houses in Bangkok. They were selected by convenience sampling that have complete information according to the specified variables. Then, data were recorded in the checklist and analyzed by Descriptive statistics and machine learning techniques, including Support Vector Machine (SVM), Gradient Boosted Trees (GBT), Artificial Neural Network (ANN), and Ensemble Vote.


The research results were found that the obtained model derived from Ensemble Vote technique has the least Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) compared with Support Vector Machine (SVM), Gradient Boosted Trees (GBT), Artificial Neural Network (ANN), and Ensemble Vote techniques. The RMSE, R2 and Beta of the best model are 3,746,335.580 Bath, 0.5377 and 0.4919, respectively. Evidently, constructing a modeling for forecasting the selling prices of non-performing asset (NPA) detached houses in Bangkok using a variety of machine learning techniques will increase the overall efficiency of the forecast equation due to combining multiple classifiers with a clustering method can help reduce data bias. They can help each other to enhance the efficiency of data classification make a model more efficient. Real estate business entrepreneurs can apply machine learning techniques to analyze data to exploit data for decision-making. The results showed the potential of using machine learning techniques in predicting the prices of non-performing asset (NPA) detached houses by the data available from websites although there is not much information.
