Context

Imagine you have to process bug reports about an application your company is developing, which is available for both Android and iOS. Could you find a way to automatically classify them so you can send them to the right support team?

Content

The dataset contains data from two StackExchange forums: Android Enthusiasts and Ask Differently (Apple). I pre-processed both datasets from the raw XML files retrieved from Internet Archive in order to only contain useful information for building Machine Learning classifiers. In the case of the Apple forum, I narrowed down to the subset of questions that have one of the following tags: "iOS", "iPhone", "iPad".

Think of this as a fun way to learn to build ML classifiers! The training, validation and test sets are all available, but in order to build robust models please try to use the test set as little as possible (only as a last validation for your models).
