PROJECT DESCRIPTION

Fraud Detection in Perform various data manipulation operations

E-commerce (perform sampling techniques to deal with data
Transactions imbalance). Identify trends in data, build a
supervised model to predict future fraud
transactions. Compare the performance against
the test set.

Data extraction of Extraction of appropriate data from documents

Aadhaar using digitally is widely used for KYC verification.
OCR Recognize the text field from the images of
Aadhaar and then detect the text field like name,
address etc and store it in labeled format.

Face Detection Build a face detection algorithm for detection of

and Recognition multiple faces in a given image. Perform Feature
Extraction for the given faces, build the model
and fine tune the model for higher accuracy.

Customer Assimilate the data using unsupervised learning

Segmentation concepts and different clustering
techniques/algorithms. Deep dive into the
concept of data analysis and conduct EDA to
gather insights from the customer data. Build the
targeting strategy for each segment to maximize
the value of each customer to the business

Startup Success Due to high failure rate, investing in start-ups is

Prediction very risky. For these reasons big venture
capitalists and angel investors have lost a lot of
money making the wrong decision. Apply feature
engineering and manipulation techniques over
dataset, apply statistical analysis (descriptive and
inferential). Create supervised machine learning
models for future prediction.
 INDUSTRY/CAPSTONE PROJECTS
PROJECT DESCRIPTION

Sentiment Analysis Build a model based on NLP which can analyze

& Visualization of textual data and draw meaningful information
Customer Feedback with the reviews provided by the customers.
Create a decision model to match customer
expectations and enhance customer experience
using insights from feedback analysis using AI..

Hotel Booking Predict booking cancellation using machine

cancellation learning to reduce and manage financial loss.
prediction Apply feature engineering and manipulation
techniques to build statistical analysis and ML
models.

Classification of Build a classification model using deep learning

News Articles model to segregate or automate the process of
classification of articles for better reach to the
right audience.

Data analysis on Build a machine learning model which can predict

loan application if the applicant is eligible for loan or not based on
and approval the historic data provided by the company.
prediction Identify critical parameters for classification
algorithms, test the models, predict and compare
accuracies and determine the best model

Artificial AI can help in cancer imaging where a model

Intelligence for trained based on the images (CT scan or MRI etc)
Cancer detection will be provided to train the classification based
model. It further predicts or you can say visualize
that there are any cancerous changes detected in
the image.

To say that my professional journey is unique would be an under-

statement. I dropped out of college where I was studying B.Tech,
and pursued Hotel Management at PES Univeristy.

Post Covid I started working with an Ed-tech company as an

Admissions Counsellor and this is where I came across Hero
Vired’s Integrated Program in Data Science, Machine Learning
and Artificial Intelligence.

The program was taught well and opened doors for me in my

career. The career services team were excellent and helped me at
every step of my journey.
Ghaghan Lokesh

After being in the retail industry for over five years and having
worked for multinational organisations like Infosys and Amazon, I
wanted to upgrade my skills. I came across various Data Science
programs and decided to enrol in Hero Vired’s Integrated program
in Data Science, Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence.

The program not only helped me acquire knowledge of

programming languages but also helped enhance my technical
skills which helped me secure a promotion at Amazon.
