RESEARCH

Detection of cyberbullying over social media websites using Deep Learning

Jun 2022- Ongoing
• Developed a book recommendation system for customers using memory and model- based
collaborative filtering by utilizing the description of book and user interests.
• Operated Word2Vec vectorizer on descriptions to obtain user-item interactions an employed cosine
distance to measure user-item and item-item similarities.
• Created profiles for top active users by leveraging interaction strength with the recommended items and
achieved test recall@5 of 42% and recall@10 of 53%.
• Analyzed the solution for the cold start problem based on global and demographic- specific book
popularity and improved the efficiency of the user recommendation engine by 33%

Online Retail customer Segmentation

Jun 2022- November 2022
• Achieved a Silhouette score of 0.65 for number of clusters 4 by applying an Unsupervised clustering
model to identify major customer segments on a transactional data set.
• Derived CLTV based features such as Recency, Frequency, Monetary value and RFMScore for getting
more details about the customer.
• Generated optimal customer clusters which could be further used in various use- cases like - customer
targeting, marketing campaigns, churn prediction, etc.(Summary: Achieved a Silhouette score of 0.65

Retail Sales Prediction:

Jun 2022- November 2022
• Achieved a MAPE of 8% by implementing a Supervised Learning regression model to predict the sales
of a retail business,
• Analyzed pattern of store sales to capture the cyclic trend over different time period, relation with
marketing campaigns, store demographics, and nearby competitors.
• Employed processing techniques such as outlier treatment using Isolation Forest, categorical to dummy
features etc.
• Implemented Decision Tree algorithm as the data was non-linear, furthermore due to overfitting problem
settled with Random Forest.(Summary: Built a regression model using Linear Regression to predict the
weekly sales volume of 10K+ Rossmann drug stores for efficient inventory management.
• Achieved an R squared score of 91.5% on the test dataset by applying Lasso regularization for feature
selection, and used RandomizedSearchCV for hyperparameter tuning Employed processing techniques
such as outlier treatment using IQR, multicollinearity check using VIF, feature scaling using
MinMaxScaler)
