Investigated
data
and
fitted
a
seasonal
mean+
AR(1)+white
noise model
by
examining
ACF,
PACF,
EACF,
Box.Cox
transformation
plot,
residual

§ Mercury
Levels
of
Fish
in
North
Carolina:
Implemented
multiple
regression,
creating
dummy
variables,
checking
colinearity
through principle
component
and
checking
outlier/leverage/influential
points,
AVOVA,
backward
model
selection
and
best
subset
regression
to fit
a
model
for
mercury
level
on
fish
weight,
length,
river
and
station.
§ Nesting
Horseshoe
Crabs:
Implemented
binomial
logistic
regression
to
investigate
factors
that
affect
whether
there
were
any
other males,
called
satellites,
residing
nearby
a
female
crab’s
nest.
§ BML
Traffic
Model
Simulation:
Used
loops,
iterations,
matrix
subseting,
random
number
generators
to
create
a
grid
of
traffic
model with
2
car
flows;
one
is
from
the
bottom
to
the
top
and
the
other
from
the
left
to
the
right.
We
found
out
once
the
cars
density
exceeds 0.32,
final
plot
will
be
a
total
traffic
jam.
§ U.S.
Flight
Delay:
Grouped
10- year
flight
data
by
airport/carrier/flight
age/departure
time…using
logic
sentences
and
did
regression
and visualizations
to
compare
average
delay
time
and
rate
of
delay.
Wrote
an
html
webpage
to
present
the
findings.

Cases:
Used
Excel
to
calculate
yield
to
maturity,

value of
firms
to
choose
between
investment
plans. AWARDS & HONORS
