Project Experience
• Trained a convolutional neural network using the Imagenet database to identify canine breed given an image of dog as input.
• Used transfer learning with the Resnet50 model to achieve an accuracy score of approximately 70%. • Applied reinforcement learning to build a simulated vehicle navigation agent with limited available inputs
• Used Q-learning algorithm to teach driving agent to drive to the destination while following US traffic laws and avoiding accidents and traffic violations
• Obtained 100% accuracy of avoiding accidents and reaching the destination in the allotted timeframe following training.
• Made predictions about the natural categories of multiple types in a dataset, then checked these predictions against the result of unsupervised analysis.
• Used multiple algorithms and both empirically and theoretically compared and contrasted their results.
• Designed GMM clustering algorithm to identify 2 underlying segments and utilized supervised learner and data visualization techniques to accurately place new values in dataset Charity ML August 2017
• Created a supervised learning algorithm to determine which company members should be targeted as potential donors
• Implemented 3 supervised learning algorithms, evaluated each model, and tuned optimal algorithm
• Determined an accuracy score 4x greater than benchmark predictor with the designed algorithm Work Experience
