We estimated the RMSE of a machine learning classifier on multivariate RSSI data collected from the cluster of 6 Base Transceiver Stations (BTS) across a hilly terrain of Uttarakhand-India. Variable attributes comprise topology, environment, and forest canopy. Four machine learning classifiers have been investigated to identify the classifier with the least RMSE: Gaussian Process, Ensemble Boosted Tree, SVM, and Linear Regression. Gaussian Process showed the lowest RMSE, R- Squared, MSE, and MAE of 1.96, 0.98, 3.8774, and 1.3202 respectively as compared to other classifiers.}, year = {2021}, journal = {International Journal of Interactive Multimedia and Artificial Intelligence}, volume = {6}, number = {6}, pages = {156-163}, month = {06/2021}, issn = {1989-1660}, url = {https://www.ijimai.org/journal/sites/default/files/2021-05/ijimai_6_6_16.pdf}, doi = {10.9781/ijimai.2021.03.004}, }
