- Discuss your results for practical applicability and how they could be integrated into regular business processes.
- Your audience are non-tech managers but be prepared to illustrate your approach to fellow data scientists reviewing your work.
- How are shrinkage rate and pool size related?
- Bonus: How would switching to scenario two change your approach, which limitations would be introduced?
- Bonus: How would switching to scenario two change your approach, which limitations are introduced and how would you adjust your model to accomodate best?
