Hi, The target column in the train dataset means that the user is active during the next month or the given month ?

Thanks.

Hi, I believe it's for the given month.

If you try reconstructing the train datset, with the meta files (competitions, discussions, ..), you'll end up with the same target as in the train dataset.

Clear thanks! So the target of the train dataset is not the target we are going to train our model on.

Wait if the target on the train dataset isn't the target we are to train our model on, then what is the target?

@yass if the target is not our focus then can you tell me what really is?
