Applying machine learning enables researchers to make predictions related to migrants' homelessness and investigate how various factors become determinants of the predictions. We hope that the findings of this study will aid future policy making and resource allocation to better serve people experiencing homelessness. However, further improvements in the data set size and interpretation of the identified factors in decision-making are required.
