Your First Deep Learning Project: IPO Prediction with TensorFlow & Keras

In this hands-on Project Lab, you'll step into the role of a data scientist at an investment firm analyzing the Indian IPO market. With guidance from the Dataquest’s Director of Curriculum, Anna Strahl, you’ll build a deep learning classification model using TensorFlow to predict IPO listing gains, a high-impact task with direct real-world applications.

This project is ideal for learners looking to deepen their deep learning knowledge and apply it to financial datasets. You’ll go through the full machine learning pipeline: from exploring a real IPO dataset to preprocessing, building, training, and evaluating your modelall inside a Jupyter notebook.

What You'll Learn:
How to explore and visualize real-world IPO data
How to identify and treat outliers in financial datasets
How to build and train a deep learning model using TensorFlow and Keras
How to evaluate model performance for classification tasks
How to apply machine learning to guide investment decisions
