EducationRoyal Holloway, University of London Sep 2015 - PresentMSc Data Science and Analytics with a Year in IndustryThe degree program here has provided me a great opportunity to explore the field of Data Science. Courses like Machine Learning, Data Analysis and Programming for Data Analysis has helped me grow my knowledge theoretically as well as practically by implementing Data Science algorithms from the very first principle. In this course I have closely worked on algorithms like K-Nearest Neighbor, Decision Trees, K-means Clustering, Kernel Ridge Regression, Linear and Quadratic Discriminant Analysis and Neural Networks. Currently I am learning Hadoop and Map Reduce as part of Large Scale Data Processing course and Data Visualization as part of Business Intelligence course.Projects:

1. K-means Clustering.The aim of this project was to apply K-means clustering to Gene Expression Data and Human Hereditary Disease Dataset using two methods: Euclidean Distance and Pearson co-efficient Correlation. It also included the plot of performance of both the methods and pre-processing of data. This project was implemented in MATLAB.

2. Linear & Quadratic Discriminant Analysis.Implemented this algorithm again on iris dataset by taking into consideration different attributes based on their significance and comparing results for all. Implementation was done in R.

3. Kernel Ridge Regression.Implemented kernels for Ridge Regression for both polynomial and radial kernels taking into account different parameters. This was again implemented in R.

4. Neural Networks.Implemented Neural Networks in R for a small number of internal nodes. Iterated for weight calculation for internal nodes until the lowest Mean Squared Error was obtained.

Shri Vaishnav Institute of Technology & Science July 2005 – June 2009Bachelor of Engineering in Information TechnologyThe degree program helped me in developing my coding skills from very basic. Subjects like Programming in C/C++, Object Oriented Programming, Software Engineering and Database Systems enhanced my skills towards basic understanding of programming concepts, understanding software development life cycle and database concepts. Also learnt to work on SQL language.
