Projects
Instacart Market Basket Analysis June -July 2017
- Predicted the type of product a user will buy again, try for the first time, or add to their cart next
during a session, on Kaggle using "Ensembling and Xgboost" algorithms in Python. 
 Santander Product Recommendation                                                                                         Jan-Apr 2017 
- Built a recommendation system to meet the individual needs of all customers and ensure their
satisfaction using their past behaviour on Kaggle. 
Facial Recognition using PCA Feb -Apr 2017
Dr. Suresh Sundaram, Assistant Professor, Dept. of EEE, IIT Guwahati
- A set of 200 images from 40 individuals was projected to a smaller dimension subspace to get a set of
'Eigenfaces'. A new face is classified based on its distance to existing faces.
Character Recognition using a Bayesian Classifier Feb -Apr 2017
   Dr. Suresh Sundaram, Assistant Professor, Dept. of EEE, IIT Guwahati
- Designed a Bayesian Classifier to classify a set of 300 test images spread over three classes. The
classifier was trained using 200 images from each class. About 90% accuracy was achieved.
Autonomous Robot Aug 2015 - Nov 2015
- Implemented a communication network to follow a particular path (PID incorporated), or simply
mimicking the other via transmission through Radio Frequency module.
