My Work Experience

Where I've interned and worked during my career.

Self-employed | Jun 2023 - Present

Freelance Data Scientist

• Fine-tuned BERT: Enhanced and automated product rating predictions on Amazon by fine-tuning a 110M params BERT model using Hugging Face’s transformers library, achieving 52% improvement over ChatGPT. Deployed the model to the Hugging Face Model Hub for broader accessibility (Try it)(https://huggingface.co/minamhd/BERT_Amazon_Review). • Prompt Engineering with GPT: Leveraged OpenAI’s GPT-3.5 to elevate product review scoring and analysis, achieving a very low error (MAE of 0.56) in sentiment accuracy and led innovations in zero-shot and few-shot prompting techniques. • Naive Bayes Classifier: Spearheaded the development of a Naive Bayes classifier as a baseline model, achieving 67% prediction accuracy for Amazon product ratings based on customer reviews.
