8 years ago Thanks for the submission! You clearly put a lot of time/thought into this. I liked your intuition and exploration of what predicts survival.
Your ideas for new features sound great. As we mentioned in class, I think there's something there around family size. Be careful when grouping a numerical feature, such as age, as you are inherently losing information when you put it into groups. What about the Name feature? Could you split it up to learn some new information?
Status: Pass (Homework is graded on "Pass" or "Needs Improvement") Comments: Excellent work Michelle. Your analysis is well thought out, detailed, and informative. Your visuals support your results well with clear labeling which communicate effectively to your reader. Great that you noticed the video mentioned the priority given to children and older women! Your additional explorations into gender/class, family structure, and port of embarkment are insightful - great data sleuthing. Keep up the good work!
