We have two tagets in the dataset : totals.totalTransactionRevenue and totals.transactionRevenue\nThe official documentation says that totals.transactionRevenue is deprecated.
\n\nI tried the one Line script to test which one kaggle is using on LB and the results are :\ntotals.transactionRevenue : score is 0.0\ntotals.totalTransactionRevenue : score is 0.03
\n\nso it seems that kaggle is using the deprecated target and it would be nice from kaggle to let us know which taget to use.
