# Training, Validation, and Testing of the Model

* **Training:** The model is trained using a dataset of contracts with known outcomes (malicious or benign). This phase involves adjusting the model's parameters to minimize error and improve predictive accuracy. (Forta Dataset)

Current results:

Precision: 63% Recall: 79% F1-Score: 70%

* **Validation:** A separate dataset is used for validation. Techniques like cross-validation help in tuning the model and selecting the best version to prevent overfitting or underfitting.
* **Testing:** The final step involves evaluating the model's performance on a test dataset that it has never seen before. This provides an unbiased assessment of its predictive capabilities.<br>
