Today makes the completion of another very busy week! Some of the highlights include:

• Developing our elevator pitches in a workshop
• Testing baseline models using popular data sets
• Working towards the PDS presentation

This week we participated in a workshop with Dr. Lawrence Tinker where we learned to pitch our project to a variety of audiences. At the same time we are each working on developing baseline models for each of the components of our machine learning pipeline. We have create Jupyter Notebooks that we presented to Fanatics to get feedback on our current approaches. We have further split up each of the tasks, so that we each have an area to focus on. At the end of the semester we will be compiling all of these components for the presentation of our prototype.

We have also been working hard on preparing our PDR presentation and paper. For this assignment we will be compiling all of our project documents into a 20 minute presentation and paper. For this assignment we will be traveling to Fanatics and sharing our vision for the project. This will be useful for ensuring we are on the same page as Fanatics, while also getting to make a connection with them in person. We are looking forward to sharing it with them and meeting the team!
