Titanic Notebook

This notebook uses machine learning algorithms to get the best accuracy of predictions for who survived the sinking of the Titanic given the attributes in the dataset.

Setup

• Install Anaconda
• Set the channel priority to strict to avoid issues with the environment creation taking forever.
  • conda config --set channel_priority strict
• Run the following commands (in either the terminal or an Anaconda Prompt):
  • conda env create -f golden_scenario_env.yml
  • conda activate golden_scenario_env
  • conda install python=3.7
• In VS Code, open the Titanic.ipynb file and connect to the golden_scenario_env kernel

You need to setup the environment as an ipykernel to use it from the Jupyter notebook. To do it run inside of the conda activated environment:

python -m ipykernel install --user --name golden_scenario_env --display-name "Golden Scenario Env"

Also if you want to support PDF export from jupyter you need to setup LaTeX:

sudo apt-get install texlive-xetex texlive-fonts-recommended texlive-plain-generic
