Used Python and TensorFlow to build MNIST image classifier using a dataset of 42,000 images utilizing ML tools: Linear/Logistic Regression, Naïve Bayes, Decision Trees, Support Vector Machines, Clustering Algorithms, K-Nearest Neighbour, Mean Shift and Neural Networks. ML techniques were examined to learn new concepts and transfer theoretical knowledge in course to practical knowledge to learn best-case scenarios, their applicable usages, their strengths and weaknesses. Ultimately gained theoretical and practical knowledge in ML techniques.
Built a preliminary scrapper using BeautifulSoup and Python's pandas library to scrape indeed for jobs related to Tableau Developer. I pursuced this project to expand my skills in Python (and the Pandas library), as well as learn web scrapping.
Implemented a neural network (NN) with a 6GB dataset using Python and TensorFlow technologies that classified 1211 unique celebrity voices. Used a second NN to train a network with dataset of 1440 instances to classify 8 different emotional states of the celebrity via their voice to establish the emotional state of celebrities during interviews. Ultimately gained practical knowledge in Neural Networks.
Graduate Software Engineering Researcher from Toronto, Canada
I am an agile and efficient life-long learner and a relative newcomer to the field (3 years) of Computer Science (having switched from Biomedical Sciences). Currently I am pursing a Master's in Computer Sciences at Ryerson University working in the Miranskyy Lab (Ryerson University) investigating the realm of Software Engineering using tools such as Natural Language Processing, Data Science, and Machine Learning.
I am currently working with technologies including Python, Machine Learning and Neural Network suites TensorFlow, Gensim, keras, pytorch, etc. I work with the Research Group using an Agile development mindset to continuously integrate and continuously develop solutions using tools such as git, docker, etc.
I have been a life long ally and spokesperson for all students and student issues currently as the President of the Computer Science Graduate Student Council (CSGSC) at Ryerson University. I sit on and advocate for students on the Computer Science Departmental Council at Ryerson University. I am a proud Individual of Colour who is constantly and actively engaged in discourse regarding a multitude of topics, and a friend for a variety of diverse and interconnected communities.
