the ADULT dataset

Posted 01-12-2022 12:27 PM (1124 views)

I am looking at using the ADULT dataset for SVM and ensemble. However, the target variable is not explained. It just says Target 0 or 1. So I don't know what the target actually is. Can anyone help?

Here is a link to the original data source. As described here, the target is to predict whether or not the individual makes more than $50k/year.
