For data collection - we wrote scrapping scripts, for context analysis - we have created dictionaries and to generate reports - we ran out Python scripts on collected data to create training and testing data and run algorithms to find the context in user-defined text from our raw collected data.

    • Wrote scripts in Python 3 to scrap websites to fetch web pages in HTML format using Selenium.
    • Developed coding logic for data cleaning and data preparation for result prediction using Python in Anaconda tool.
    • Implemented data prediction models to compare the results.

  • Aviation Delay Detection System

    -

    The concept behind the project is to predict the delays in flights based on the huge dataset. We have applied different data extraction and data mining techniques for training and testing data and compared the prediction result to conclude the observations using different techniques and algorithms that aren't useful for this type of prediction. To predict the results of the project, my responsibilities are listed below -
