GTA for CSE6740- Computational Data Analysis

Atlanta, Georgia, United States

• Designed experiments in 2 environments to check the effectiveness of a novel method in Behaviour Cloning / Imitation Learning, proving it to be 20% better than the baseline (Python, PyTorch).• Analyzed the experiment results to measure the impact of changing hyperparameters to achieve a 7% improvement. Interpreted and documented the experiment data.

Atlanta, Georgia, United States

• Formulated a Mixed Integer Linear Program to optimize the decision-making process in a warehouse using simulations, resulting in a 22% increase in profits. (Python, Gurobi, Github)• Modified the optimization algorithm to upscale the idea from proof-of-concept to a more real-world setting in 3 months to validate the viability of the method.

• Automated the data analysis pipeline, enhancing efficiency from data wrangling to visualization in collaboration with a cross-functional team.• Participated in the comprehensive planning for a 4-month period, detailing scope, resource allocation, and alignment with business goals.• Engineered a Machine Learning model to showcase the application of advanced analytics to provide data-driven insights for business problems. (Python, R)
