A large part of this program was focused on machine learning, deep learning, data mining, and data engineering.

Web Science is a track within Computer Science and Engineering. It is concerned with the user side of software and the web. This part is supported by psychology, economics and sociology courses, on top of the standard computer sciences courses. The major also involves a lot of data science and analytics, mostly on using data from the web and social media.

• Set up required infrastructure, pipelines and application for using Quantexa's entity resolution capability.
• Provided input on proof-of-value by testing future fit and performance, determining use cases, and working out scenarios and required resourcing.

• Developed a data platform (based on Quantexa) that creates interactive and expandable networks of customers, companies, products and transactions to provide better context for financial fraud investigations.
• Used entity resolution to extract entities from data and graph analytics methods to build a model that helps us to create a more complete and detailed overview of each client, and provides better insights to do risk scoring.
• Responsibilities involved a mix of data engineering, development, operations and data science, as well as coordinating the implementation of controls related to continuous integration, delivery, testing, monitoring and operations and security, to ensure that the application and the team is in control and complies with all the standards of the bank.

• Optimized data science projects for transaction monitoring and customer risk assessment for production.
• Adoption and migration (from mostly manually-executed SAS scripts) to new advanced analytics platform based on Azure DevOps, Databricks, Data Factory, etc.

For a medical app, I worked on a functionality that allows users to add their medicines to the app by scanning and parsing information directly from a medicine box via their phone's camera, using optical character recognition (OCR), natural language processing (NLP) with entity recognition and grammar parsing, and simple object detection using OpenCV.

I developed multiple web applications and mobile applications for different clients, and I worked with a team to build a complete infrastructure for a vehicle sharing startup, their tenants and their tenants' users. This included web-based management tools to manage tenants and their users, vehicles, promotions, etc. and a mobile app that allows users to unlock and rent a vehicle.

Foronoi is a Python package that I developed that implements a sweep line algorithm for Voronoi diagrams. It scans top down over a set of points and traces out the borders along the way while scanning for the next point. My package includes a visualization API, the ability to clip the diagram inside polygon bounding-boxes and some other extras.

My master thesis was on the topic of Automated Machine Learning, which is the field that strives to automate the data scientist's process of finding and optimizing the right machine learning model. We do so by testing machine learning models with different configurations and observing their performance to determine interesting configurations to test next. This can be done in many different ways: genetic programming, bayesian optimization, bracket-wise competition, etc.

I developed a new method closely related to bayesian optimization that uses much less time to decide interesting configurations, and converges faster to the optimum.

Developed an Android/iOS app that learns what your personal "travel DNA" is, based on the liking and disliking of travel images, and then recommends holiday destinations using affiliate links.
