In this project, you’ll help a leading healthcare organization build a model to predict the likelihood of a patient suffering a stroke. The model could help improve a patient’s outcomes. Working with a real-world dataset, you’ll use R to load, clean, process, and analyze the data and then train multiple classification models to determine the best one for making accurate predictions.
