Slides for my HANIC presentation
You can find the longer form writeup on my blog at themockup.blog -- this will be a true statement... in the future. For now the slide deck is my writeup!

Full Disclosure:
- The Random Forest model takes about 20 min to run w/ 1000 trees.
- You lose about 3% accuracy w/ only 100 trees but cut your run time down to 2 min
- The logistic regression is almost as accurate as the Random Forest model and takes about 2 min as well
-
