Titanic-ML-Challenge

This is a challenge on Kaggle to predict whether a person survives or not on the Titanic depending on the features given using Machine Learning

I used different types of classifiers like DecisionTrees, KNearest-Neighbours and Gradient Boosting.
I used cross-validation to increase the performance of the model i.e. to select the best algorithm.
I also pre-processed the data to fill any null values present, encode non-numerical data and remove unwated features.
I got 79.9% Accuracy using the Gradient Boosting algorithm.
