Twitter Data: Text Classification and graph Clustering (Course: Online Social Network Analysis - Python)

Objective: Build a classifier for sentiment analysis on Donald Trump Tweets and clustered the followers of Ellon Musk

Contribution: Collected 1000 tweets having search term ‘Donald Trump’. Built GLM and SVM classifiers after cleaning the tweets. I have collected the Ellon Musk followers and for each follower collected the 200 followers to identify the communities between people using Girvan Newman algorithm.

Impact: Calculated the Accuracy for each classifier developed above for sentiment analysis. Generated the graph by coloring the nodes for identifying the communities.

HR Resources Analytics (Course: Data Preparation and Analysis)

Objective: Identify the most valuable employees, predict churn among them, and make recommendations to retain those most valuable employees

Contribution: Used different feature selection techniques to select the best features and identified ‘Random Forest’ as the best model that fits the data in terms of Accuracy, Precision, Recall metrics and ROC curve Created Tableau visualizations to present the analysis and results

Impact: Identified top 33% most valuable employees among 15000 employees with 99.7% accuracy

Development of Guaranteed Automatic Integration Library (GAIL-open source) (Course: Monte Carlo methods – Matlab, Python)

Objective: GAIL is open source suite for integration problems in one and many dimensions, originally developed in Matlab.

Contribution: Developed a Monte Carlo method for estimating mean of a random variable based on Central Limit Theorem using Numpy and Scipy.

Impact: Gained hands-on expertise with Numpy and Scipy packages in Python and it is added value to academic community at Illinois Institute of Technology.
