Welcome to Machine Learning India AI Challenge!

Machine Learning India is organizing an AI Challenge for all the beginners in data science. This challenge provides an opportunity for all the data scientists to learn, compete, and showcase their skills at the national level. The dataset consists of Credit Card Transactions that need to be classified into fraudulent and non-fraudulent transactions. This challenge has applications in the domain of risk analysis, insurance claims, loan approvals, and other economic fronts.

The provided dataset has the following 3 files:

• TRAIN.csv (contains training data)
• TEST.csv (test data for prediction)
• sample_submission.csv (an example of submission file)

The TRAIN.csv has 31 attributes, 30 training, and 1 target attribute (Class). "0" represents non-fraudulent transactions and "1" represents fraudulent transactions. Attributes V1...V28 are anonymous so that the internal details may be kept hidden.

Please refer to the Submission Guidelines for the final format of the submission.

The final submission must include:

output.csv (single file having results for "TEST.csv" file which contains 352 rows of data)

The two classes are as follows:

• 0 (non-fraudulent)
• 1 (fraudulent)

The first row should correspond to the column names "Index" and "Class". Please refer to the Sample Output for better understanding.

Sample Output:
