Inspiration

I am currently working on the Titanic problem. I want to see if home country has any influence on the survival rate of passengers, so I found this dataset which has each passenger's country of origin.

Dataset describing the survival status of individual passengers on the Titanic. Missing values in the original dataset are represented using ?. Float and int missing values are replaced with -1, string missing values are replaced with 'Unknown'.

To use this dataset:

import tensorflow_datasets as tfds

ds = tfds.load('titanic', split='train')
for ex in ds.take(4):
 print(ex)

See the guide for more informations on tensorflow_datasets.

Fatality Reports were created for 328 individuals whose bodies were recovered at the site of the disaster. These files form a unique sub-set within the records of the Medical Examiner for the City of Halifax and Town of Dartmouth (RG 41, Series C, Vols. 75, 76 & 76A) held at the Nova Scotia Archives.
