Analytics for a video streaming platform

Report a typo

Imagine that you work for a video streaming platform, and your task is to predict the number of views of a newly posted video within the first week.

Below are the steps that you will most likely take to tackle this challenge. What is the correct order?

Hint

Try to approach it in the following way: first, you collect the dataset within the specified time frame. Next, you will likely perform some exploratory data analysis to formulate hypotheses and gain insights into which models are most suitable for the task. Then, you will test the selected models in terms of their performance on the existing data to choose the model that best captures the underlying structure.

Put the items in the correct order
Plotting the number of views with respect to the other features to understand what could affect the popularity
Comparing how accurate the predictions from all the considered models are. Picking the best model.
Training a number of ML models that predict the number of views the videos will get
Polishing the code and passing it to the deployment team.
Collecting data about one-week old videos on the platform: number of views, duration, number of subscribers, day posted, title.
