| This data was extracted from the census bureau database found at | http://www.census.gov/ftp/pub/DES/www/welcome.html | Donor: Terran Lane and Ronny Kohavi | Data Mining and Visualization | Silicon Graphics. | e-mail: terran@ecn.purdue.edu, ronnyk@sgi.com for questions. | | The data was split into train/test in approximately 2/3, 1/3 | proportions using MineSet's MIndUtil mineset-to-mlc. | | Prediction task is to determine the income level for the person | represented by the record.

The goal field of this data, however, | was drawn from the "total person income" field rather than the | "adjusted gross income" and may, therefore, behave differently than the | orginal ADULT goal field. | | More information detailing the meaning of the attributes can be | found in http://www.bls.census.gov/cps/cpsmain.htm | To make use of the data descriptions at this site, the following
