She can act, sing, write, paint etc. In<\/p>\n<p>fact she can do anything creative.<\/p>\n<p>Penny\u2019s only problem is that she doesn\u2019t have any money. She wants to obtain money<\/p>\n<p>via crowd-funding to fund a creative project. She knows that you have a spreadsheet<\/p>\n<p>full of data. She want to know if you can give her any advice about creating a crowdfunded<\/p>\n<p>project based on the data if the file. E.g. what will make her project more likely to succeed?<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tasks <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Your tasks is to<\/p>\n<p>Explore the data. Find information that you think will be useful to Penny (and to<\/p>\n<p>other people who want to create similar crowd-funding projects).<\/p>\n<p>Attempt to determine which (if any) what are the most important attributes of<\/p>\n<p>the project in terms of whether a projects succeeds (meets the required funds)<\/p>\n<p>List and present the most important attributes and justify why this is so (w<\/p>\n<p>ith<\/p>\n<p>the<\/p>\n<p>use of BigML screen dumps and supporting explanation \/ discussion).<\/p>\n<p>You will need to do this based around two models.<\/p>\n<p>In the first model, use any \/ all of the columns in the dataset. However some columns<\/p>\n<p>probably aren\u2019t suitable for analysis. BigML may automatically choose some column not<\/p>\n<p>to be suitable (e.g. Project Id \u2013 as every row has a unique value, it provides no analytical<\/p>\n<p>use). In other case, you may need to select which columns are not suitable for analysis.<\/p>\n<p>In the second model, you must exclude these columns: percent_raised,<\/p>\n<p>amt_pledged_$, avg_amt$_per_pledge, project_state, number_of_pledgers &amp;<\/p>\n<p>project_update_count<\/p>\n<p>Suggestion. Save the Excel file as a CSV file before loading into BigML. This generally<\/p>\n<p>allows column headings to be used field names rather than \u2018field1\u2019, \u2018field2\u2019 \u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Crowd Funding Introduction PleaseFundThis.com is a web site that allows users to create projects in order to obtain crowd-funding for creative pursuits such as such as films, music, stage shows, comics, journalism, video games\u2026 and so on.
