Abstract:
|
The objective of this analysis is to identify the determinants of poverty in United States. First we design an interactive and data driven web-based approach to make easy the data exploration for anyone, using this tool we can identify which factors can be relevant in the community poverty. After the graphical exploration, we fit several statistical models to quantify the importance and behavior of the variables that could help to explain the poverty on different regions.
