WiDS Datathon 2018: Financial Services for the Poor

The WiDS Datathon 2018 worked with the InterMedia Survey Institute, a grant recipient of the Bill & Melinda Gates foundation in their Financial Services for the Poor program. The dataset for the challenge contained demographic and behavioral information from a representative sample of survey respondents from India about their usage of traditional financial and mobile financial services. Participants analyzed the data and build machine learning and statistical models to predict the gender of each survey respondent.
