Following simple baselines in the “Alice” competition (see Topic 4), check out a bit more advanced Notebooks:

• “Correct time-aware cross-validation scheme”;

• “Model validation in a competition”;

Go on with feature engineering and try to achieve ~ 0.955 (or higher) ROC AUC on the Public Leaderboard. Alternatively, if a better solution is already shared by the time you join the competition, try to improve the best publicly shared solution by at least 0.5%. However, please do not share high-performing solutions, it ruins the competitive spirit of the competition and also hurts some other courses which also have this competition in their syllabus.
