      Featured Projects:1- Telemarketing Campaign Predictive Analytics for Banking Institution Nov. 2020​ - Mar. 2021​This is a classification problem of an imbalance dataset aiming to predict the customers who are likely to subscribe to the term deposit service. Oversampling strategy, using SMOTE, is applied to the data to cope with data imbalance.The Bayesian Hyperparameter Optimization technique is used to tune several models. The winning ensemble model, (LGBM), achieved 0.88 accuracy and (ROC AUC = 0.81). These results are slightly higher than the one published in academia (S. Moro, P. Cortez and P. Rita. A Data-Driven Approach to Predict the Success of Bank Telemarketing. Decision Support Systems, Elsevier, 62:22-31, June 2014).2 - NLP Model for predicting Disaster Tweets June 2021​ - Sept. 2021​Kaggle dataset is used to develop an NLP classification model to flag disaster tweets. The project involved data wrangling and EDA as well as testing several NLP modeling techniques. Applying Deep Learning/transfer learning using the state-of-the-art language model, BERT, the model achieved impressive performance on a relatively small training dataset (Accuracy = 0.95, ROC AUC = 0.98, F1 = 0.94). my other data science projects can be found at my github repo:https://github.com/ahmed-agael/Data_Science_Projects Show less
