Projects

Team member, Colorado Data Science Team – Boulder, Colorado Aug 2018 - Present

•Build a project with a team to solve a real-life problem supervised by CU Boulder Professors.

•Participate in internal competitions (CU Boulder), and external competitions (e.g. Kaggle, Netflix).

Data Science Projects – Self May 2018 – Present

•Created an image-classifier following Michael Nielsen’s book on Neural Networks to classify handwritten digits.

•Built a movie recommendation model utilizing lightfm Python Library that provides recommendation algorithms and data extraction methods to build the model.

•Used Spark to build a neural network model and a Naïve Bayes models to classify different types of irises, and built scripts to preprocess textual and numerical data to use for different models.

SQL Projects – Self July 2018 – Sept 2018
