The company has given your team an initial dataset with 15,000 records. Today
(on November 28) your team received another 15,000 records (without
dependent variable values).
Teams will generate and send their predictions for these records to Dr. Mahar
([email protected]) or Dr. Strandberg
([email protected]) by end of the day on Thursday, December 1st.
Then we will compile a mid-competition leaderboard. Specifically each team will
submit one Excel workbook with its “best” predictions for each of the 15,000
households in the 2nd round dataset in one column (indicating whether each of
those households is or is not “high worth”). That is, each team should send one
Excel file with one column and 15000 rows filled with 0/1 predictions.
