The original website is at link.
The dataset contains 740 observations and 21 features on the profiles of employees who report their absenteeism.
Features include Reasons for absence,Seasons, Transportation Expense, etc.
Model
Logistic regression, randomForest, and Gradient boosting are selected to model such phenomena.
As a result, RandomForest is the best to model absenteeism at work and the overall auc is 0.87.
Integrated with Flask on GCP
The prediction panel is hosted on GCP flask and user can input their profile and get a prediction of whether they will be absent from work.
