Files description
- a complete Titanic extended dataset (full.csv)
- a training subset (train.csv)

The first 12 features are the same as in the Titanic competition.
The last 9 features are added from the Titanic passenger list on Wikipedia and are as follows:
- WikiId
- Name
- Age
- Hometown
- Boarded

The new features are very similar to the original ones but they are more up-to-date and have much fewer missing values. Therefore, users can decide on the preferred features themselves.

[84] Known for decades as "The Unknown Child", body number 4 was initially identified after the disaster as two-year-old Gösta Leonard Pålsson (1912). Dental records later identified him as 13-month-old Eino Viljami Panula (2002), until a test on the child's HVS1, a type of mitochondrial DNA molecule, confirmed his identification as that of 19-month-old Sidney Goodwin (2007).

[86] Due to the effects recovered with the body (a purse containing Danish coins and a handkerchief marked with the letter "A") there has been some doubt over the authenticity of the identification.
