WorldQuant University | Nov 2023 - Feb 2024

Data Scientist

The Projects work: 1. HOUSING IN MEXICO: Used a dataset of 21,000 properties to determine if real estate prices are influenced more by property size or location. I imported and cleaned data from a CSV file, build data visualizations, and examine the relationship between two variables using correlation. 2. APARTMENT SALES IN BUENOS AIRES: I built a linear regression model to predict apartment prices in Argentina. I created a data pipeline to impute missing values & encode categorical features, & I improve d model performance by reducing overfitting. 3. AIR QUALITY IN NAIROBI: I built an ARMA time-series model to predict particulate matter levels in Kenya. I extracted data from a MongoDB database using pymongo, & improve model performance through hyperparameter tuning. 4. EARTHQUAKE DAMAGE IN NEPAL: I built logistic regression & decision tree models to predict earthquake damage to buildings. I extracted data from a SQLite database, & reveal the biases in data that can lead to discrimination. 5. BANKRUPTCY IN POLAND: I built random forest & gradient boosting models to predict whether a company will go bankrupt. I navigated the Linux command line, address imbalanced data through resampling, & consider the impact of performance metrics precision & recall. 6. CUSTOMER SEGMENTATION IN THE US: I built a k-means model to cluster US consumers into groups. I use principal component analysis (PCA) for data visualization, & created an interactive dashboard with Plotly Dash. 7. A/B TESTING AT WORLDQUANT UNIVERSITY: I conducted a chi-square test to determine if sending an email can increase program enrollment at WQU. I built custom Python classes to implement an ETL process, & created an interactive data application following a three-tiered design pattern. 8. VOLATILITY FORECASTING IN INDIA: I created a GARCH time series model to predict asset volatility. I acquire stock data through an API, clean and store it in an SQLite database, & built my own API to serve model predictions.
