Method

Below are provided the steps that were followed for this project. Each step and classifiers have their own document.

1. Data visualization: data analysis to understand missing values, data relations and usefulness of features
2. Preprocessing: with the knowledge acquired with the preceding step, apply preprocessing of data including dealing with missing values, drop unuseful features and build new features
3. Classifier: build classifiers based on the preprocessed data using a variety of techniques

Classification techniques

Classification techniques together with the relative scores.
