I read thru your "Walk-through Of Patient No-show Supervised Machine Learning Classification With XGBoost In R" nice work and useful analysis, can you please share End User Web Application java script so I can try uploading csv if possible a 2 or 3 rows of dummy data from from csv file do create dummy taking them as sample. I not sure the csv is data is same as data you pulling from SQL either way couple rows of dummy data would much appreciate
