Two questions: data generation and feature importance

Hi Georg,
First, thanks for making your code available! It's a really interesting approach to survival analysis.
Can I ask you a couple of questions?
-
How do I generate the data? All the notebooks seem to assume that there's a directory called "data" with a bunch of .pkl files in it, but the directory is not there on your github.
-
Is there a way to estimate feature importance in this approach?
Thank you!

Hi, I'm afraid I don't have particularly exciting answers for you.
- ASOS have declined to make the dataset publicly available. If you're interested, I can give you some ideas about the shape of the input data.
- I did not look into this topic for this particular approach but I suspect there are applicable methods for feature importance in RNNs/LSTMs.
