Kaggle Munich-June 2019

Details:

We're happy to have Inovex Gmbh as our host for this event! A big Thank You from Kaggle Munich!

For those new to Kaggle Munich, we are a community of hobbyists and professionals interested in data science, programming and of course solving challenges on kaggle.com

Talk: “Feature Engineering - Automation and Evaluation”

Short Summary:
Building an end-to-end data science pipeline for a specific problem is an iterative process which involves a combination of different processes. Here we are going to "scratch the surface" of the feature engineering process. There are many methods for creating new features, including brainstorming, previous experience, domain knowledge, and not to forget the automated feature engineering tools. However, how can we tell if the new features are useful or we are wasting our time? I am going to present some simple techniques for generating new features automatically. Eventually, I am going to present a simple idea that helps us to evaluate the new features.

Because of the conflict with other events, we decided to shift the Kaggle Munich Event one day from 12.06 into 13.06.
We apologize for the confusion.
