Predicting the 2019 Oscars Winners with Machine Learning

Following the success of predicting 6 out of 6 for the Oscars last year, we have the bar set high for using Machine Learning to predict the 2019 Oscars winners. This year, however, the results are not as obvious. For some of the top categories, our projected results show ties for who gets to take home the coveted gold statuette. Nevertheless, we are excited to share our predictions and see how the Academy Awards pan out this Sunday! Once again, we apply the standard Machine Learning workflow of collecting and preparing a dataset, building and evaluating models, to ultimately make predictions.
