"Would YOU Survive the Titanic?", with ML and .NET

Uses Visual Studio 2022 and C# with ML.NET to solve Kaggle's Titanic challenge, starting with Jupyter/VS Code for EDA (pandas, matplotlib) then building ML.NET pipelines with custom mappings, one‑hot encoding and an age‑predictor to fill missing values. The process yields about 78.95% accuracy on Kaggle after hand‑crafted features (title, cabin deck, family size); a web app that predicts survival is deployed (in‑memory, no data stored) and the model runs and scores successfully.
