Data Science Immersive Student

Applied skills in computer programming and statistics in a 500+ hour immersive program. Developed a portfolio of client projects:

• Beer Recommender Application
• Produced an application that returned similar beers to users using the Scikit-Learn library’s Pairwise Distances & Cosine Similarity. Dataset was taken from Kaggle and analyzed, cleaned and performed Exploratory Data Analysis. Used clustering methods such as, KMeans and DBSCAN. Evaluated the model using K-Nearest Neighbors. Presented the project to a technical and non-technical audience.
• Sentiment Analysis on Covid-19
• Completed a sentiment analysis of Covid-19 Twitter posts in the United States to see the general public sentiment in response to state policies. Our team pulled 60k posts with relevant keywords to “coronavirus” and “executive orders”. Results concluded that the current public sentiment in response to state policies and Executive Orders were relatively neutral.
• Web API & NLP
• Created a conceptual application called “Health Today”. Based on user engagement, the team predicted and analyzed two separate categories (“food” versus “exercise”) in order to find which subreddit category would be most beneficial when marketing and deploying a health application. Completed Natural Language Processing (NLP). Multinomial Naive Bayes pipelined with CountVectorizer received an accuracy score of 84%. TfidfVectorizer with logistic regression was used as a comparison model. Results concluded that “exercise” was a better predictor for our health application.
