PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE:

Confidential, San Antonio, TX

Data Scientist esponsibilities:

• Made an EDA analysis on demographic data (internal to client),personal data related to customer which was derived from third party vendor .
• Performed feature engineering, created derived variables, plotted correlation matrix to find the multi collinearity between the variables.
• Explored the WOE(Weight of evidence technique) to impute values for the binned variables
• Created dummy variables for the specific categorical variables in the dataframe created by joining the internal customer data with third party vendor data
• Handled the missing values in data using data imputation techniques and business understanding of the variables
• Calculated the optimal cutoff value for the model by plotting the ROC curve
• Applied VIF(Variance Inflation Factor ) and P value to find the multicollinearity between variables and significant variables
• Performed the outlier detection on the data by analysing the data using box plotting
• Handled the class imbalance in the data using SMOTE technique
• Calculated the metrics of Precision,Recall,Accuracy,sensitivity and specificity for the model
• Created the logistic regression model on the customer data with an accuracy of 83 percent and working on increasing the performance of the same using boosting techniques (which is in process)

Environment: Anaconda, Scikit-Learn libraries,python,seaborn,StatModel and matplotlib
