Week 3—A Model or Two

CHAMPS team meeting with Brian Russell for Week 3 updates
CHAMPS team meeting with Brian Russell about feature analysis questions

Welcome back to the weekly CHAMPS update! The team is steadily overcoming challenges as members prepare for the Qualification Review Board (QRB) panel next Tuesday. Michael and John successfully debugged the training issue while Sarah began feature reduction on specific events to simplify the model. The CHAMPS are continuing to explore a sequence-to-sequence model to later build individual models for select event types. However, since Sara and Itzel completed analyzing the journal events provided by Verifone, the team can proceed with refactoring and dimensionality reduction. Although the CHAMPS require more data and examples of anomalous events for improved model accuracy, members are moving forward with the information available. In other news, the CHAMPS are finalizing their QRB presentation this weekend and practicing for the first panel. The upcoming blog will cover the team performance and feedback as well as model progress.
