Thank you for the feedback both.
I work under tight restrictions of GDPR and local laws in Denmark. This, unfortunately, means, that the exact address is not something I can look into. What I can do is find the center of the postal area and make a somewhat vague calculation from there.
I was initially inspired to do this in a Danish healthcare setting after reading this article. I now know that there are a lot of things to improve still. However many of these features would never be OK in the EU
I mixed this knowledge with a big literature review examining the problem with no-shows, field work and a lot of dataset iterations from EPIC.
As of feature engineering, I’ve done a lot of this to get the features I’ve revealed and I have to limit it now as I have a deadline to keep
This is only a thesis project that hopefully could get escalated further and I will take ALL of your feedback with me and revisit it.
If you come up with more and better ideas, my head is still on the block for more criticism it seems that I still have a lot to learn and many concepts to be more knowledgeable on.
Best, Chris
