PROJECTS

1. To identify the potential customers who have a higher probability to churn using ensemble
prediction model.
A telecom company wants to use their historical customer data to predict behaviour to retain
customers. You can analyse all relevant customer data and develop focused customer retention
programs.

2. To cluster the vehicles as per their fuel consumption attributes and later train a regression model
for an automobile dataset.
The purpose is to classify a given vehicle as one of three types of vehicles, using a set of features
extracted from the silhouette. The vehicle may be viewed from one of many different angles.

3. To create an automation using computer vision to impute dynamic bounding boxes to locate cars
or vehicles on the road.
City X’s traffic department wants to understand the traffic density on road during busy hours in
order to efficiently program their traffic lights.

4. Implementing an Image classification neural network to classify Street House View Numbers.
Recognizing multi-digit numbers in photographs captured at street level is an important
component of modern-day map making. A classic example of a corpus of such street-level
photographs is Google’s Street View imagery composed of hundreds of millions of geo-located
360-degree panoramic images.The ability to automatically transcribe an address number from a
geolocated patch of pixels and associate the transcribed number with a known street address
helps pinpoint, with a high degree of accuracy, the location of the building it represents.
More broadly, recognizing numbers in photographs is a problem of interest to the optical character
recognition community. While OCR on constrained domains like document processing is well
studied, arbitrary multi-character text recognition in photographs is still highly challenging. This
difficulty arises due to the wide variability in the visual appearance of text in the wild on account of
a large range of fonts, colors, styles, orientations, and character arrangements. The recognition
problem is further complicated by environmental factors such as lighting, shadows, secularities,
and occlusions as well as by image acquisition factors such as resolution, motion, and focus blur.

5. Predicting the condition of the patient depending on the received test results.
This project has two parts. In the first part we are trying to predict the condition of the patient
depending on the received test results on biomechanics features of the patients according to their
current conditions. In part II, we need to design a supervised learning prediction model to perform
targeted marketing for executing a digital marketing campaign for a bank.

6. To build an NLP classifier which can use input text parameters to determine the label/s of the blog.
Classification is probably the most popular task that you would deal with in real life. Text in the form
of blogs, posts, articles, etc. is written every second. It is a challenge to predict the information about
the writer without knowing about him/her. We are going to create a classifier that predicts multiple
features of the author of a given text. We have designed it as a multi-label classification problem.

11
7. To build a recommendation system using popularity based and collaborative filtering methods to
recommend mobile phones to a user which are most popular and personalised respectively.
India is the second largest market globally for smartphones after China. About 134 million smartphones
were sold across India in the year 2017 and is estimated to increase to about 148 million in 2024. India
ranked second in the average time spent on mobile web by smartphone users across Asia Pacific.
If a seller succeeds to publish smartphones based on user’s behaviour/choice at the right place, there
are 90% chances that user will enquire for the same. This Case Study is targeted to build a
recommendation system based on the individual consumer’s behaviour or choice.

8. Sarcasm Detection using Bidirectional LSTMs

Past studies in Sarcasm Detection mostly make use of Twitter datasets collected using hashtag based
supervision but such datasets are noisy in terms of labels and language. Furthermore, many tweets
are replies to other tweets and detecting sarcasm in these requires the availability of contextual
tweets. In this hands-on project, the goal is to build a model to detect whether a sentence is sarcastic
or not, using Bidirectional LSTMs.

9. To build a semi-rule based text chat bot which can give static responses to the user depending on
the inputs for industrial safety and incidents
Linguistic chatbots have become a must to have automation for large organisations with a huge client
base. They serve as a virtual support, Helpdesk, sales agents etc enhancing the business and the
customer experience.

10. To build an image classifier and object detection model which can classify a car from an image
and identify the location of the car from an image by publishing a bounding box around it.
Image classifiers have become a must to have automation for organisations chasing towards
employing autonomous AI bots. Computer vision can be used to automate supervision and generate
appropriate action triggers if the event is predicted from the image of interest. For example a car
moving on the road can be easily identified by a camera as make of the car, type, colour, number
plates, etc.

11. To build an image classifier and object detection model which can classify a chest X-ray image
into with/without pneumonia disease and identify the location of the chest X-ray where the disease is
localised by publishing a bounding box around it.
The designed model can be used as a micro service within an application which can assist hospitals
and patients to detect the health condition of the patient just by scanning the X-ray file generated.
Project involves designing a full stack deep learning AI solution covering data warehousing, data
cleansing, validation, machine learning model design/ validation/tuning, model freezing/baseline and
model deployment using a clickable UI.

12. To build an image classifier which can classify images of dogs as per their breeds.
Image classifiers have become a must to have automation for organisations chasing towards employing
autonomous AI bots. This image classifier can be a micro service for identifying if the captured image is a
dog and later identifying which breed or class the animal belongs to. The learnings and experience
obtained to design this automation can be trained and deployed on different image/class dataset too.
