  5. Some Ideas

    • The following Kaggle kernel shows a simple analysis of the data and the implementation of a baseline that uses Naive Bayes classifiers. This baseline appears in the leaderboard.
    • CLEF-IP has run several tracks on retrieval in the intellectual property domain, including two tracks on patent classification in 2010 and 2011.

    Feel free to post questions, comments, kernels, etc. at the Kaggle in Class competition page. In order to access the Kaggle in Class pages, you need to register with this shared task.
