SELECTED TERM PROJECTS
Regression Model building Term Project
. Build up best model to predict Profits of the insurance company and
check model assumptions to see if the model is valid
. Use logistic regression to predict whether the person will live or die in
a particular treatment
. Build up best model to find trend along time using Time Series ARIMA
model
Statistical Database Management Term Project
. Given nursing school sample data, use two sample T-test to decide if
there's difference between two study methods.
. Import raw data into SAS and do data cleaning; analyze data using both
descriptive statistic including mean, variance, range, distribution and
influential statistic; generate report in specific format.
. Use SAS data step and Proc SQL to combine data sets, retrieve and
manipulate data.
. Use SAS procedure such as GLM, REG, LOGISTICS to find best model.
. In SAS and SPSS, Given leather resistant to abrasion data, use 2-
factorial design or Latin Square experiment to decide which grade of
leather is most resistant to abrasion.
. Using Proc IML to do Bank simulation: The program is to simulate the
arrival of 50 customers at the bank 10000 times, then calculate mean and
standard deviation of time each customer spends in the bank and time each
customer has to wait in line for service.
Actuary Science Course Project
. Use density function of a lifetime to find survival function, force of
mortality and mean future lifetime
. Given life table and interest rate, compute the mean of the present value
for an insurance policy
. Compute the monthly payments made at the end of each month for a new
house
Database Management Term Project
The project is to build an online book store. Customers can log into our
store. Their activities such as searching for books, placing orders are
processed through operating a database created on a Microsoft SQL server.
The store manager who has an administrative account can add items into the
database on the server.
