Projects

I've had the honor of working on multiple projects, which you can see below from latest to earliest with links to their resources.
Due to confidentiality matters, some of them are not available for public view.

Analysis of a Well-Known Payment Application

March 2024
-
March 2024

This project analyzed *1 (Setare 1), a payment application linked to Hamrah-e-Aval, Iran's main mobile provider, using questionnaire data from both users and the general population. The analysis, conducted in Python, included diverse visualizations such as bar plots, violin plots, heat maps, and interactive maps using the Plotly library. The visualizations were categorized into static and dynamic, with interactive treemaps allowing users to delve deeper into categories based on population size. This comprehensive analysis provided insights into user preferences and behaviors, aiding in identifying areas for improvement. While the data is confidential, the visual assets and plots can be discussed privately.

International Affective Picture System (IAPS) Task

August 2023
-
March 2024

In this project I have participated as the developer and implemented the designed task by the Ms. Sharifi in PsychoPy. This task consisted of 36 routines and 3 loops. Each section of this task comprises two subsections: images and statements. Additionally, this task includes two rest periods, one between the image and statement subsections in the training section, and the other between the practice and main testing sections. In each section of this task, instructions are displayed for 2 seconds, and images and statements are displayed for 15 seconds each. During the interpretation stage, the participant has 150 seconds to prove their interpretations.

Negative Affective Priming (NAP) Task

August 2023
-
February 2023

In this project, I served as the developer, implementing Ms. Sharifi's designed task in PsychoPy. The test comprises 10 routines and 2 loops, divided into two sections: training and main test. During the training phase, participants view 5 word pairs on a white background and identify the valence of the target word using the + (positive) and - (negative) keys. Response time is recorded as the main parameter. The screen displays a black plus sign for 1 second before presenting the words, divided horizontally with one part showing white words on a black background and the other showing black words on a white background.

Iranian University Research Impact Analysis

January 2023
-
October 2023

This Project houses the code and data for a research paper conducted by Ramin Ferdos and Ali Hossein Noorafrooz. In this study, we leverage data from Altmetric to analyze the impact and visibility of research output from Iranian universities on the global stage. Our analysis is based on a variety of metrics, including mentions in news articles, patent creation, policy influence, and more. We have followed the CRISP-DM (Cross-Industry Standard Process for Data Mining) methodology to guide our research.

MPT-based Software for Intelligent FX Trading

April 2022
-
September 2022

In this project, which is a multiple-stage project, I developed a software for optimizing MPT trading strategy in FX trading. The mathematical optimization which is constrained for this project was done with the SciPy package and resulted in more accurate optimization than Excel's GRG non-linear solver. Also, a comprehensive pipeline for this project was designed to be able to use MetaTrader application outputs. Logging and, data tracking mechanism was also developed and, implemented.

GANs for Educational Purposes

January 2022
-
September 2023

In this project, I try to implement and teach multiple and different GANs architectures and tackle well-known challenges in this area. These contents are mostly tightly knitted to the posts shared on the LinkedIn account and can be reviewed as additional resources for those posts.

Instagram's Like Prediction (Competition)

June 2021
-
August 2021

Developed a predictive model for Instagram post likes using XGBoost, incorporating image content and performance metrics. Created an Instagram bot for data retrieval, with a scraper targeting high-follower and high-post accounts. Employed EfficientNet B7 for object detection and performed feature engineering to enhance prediction accuracy. Utilized CRISP-DM methodology for data analysis and model tuning, resulting in a robust tool for forecasting post engagement.

Pullup Campaign Data-Driven Analysis

April 2021
-
May 2021

In this project, I analyzed the pullup campaign with a data science approach. this campaign was held for Zarrin Roya company and operated on Instagram. In this project, I analyzed the data of the campaign, extracted strategic insights which shaped the future marketing plans of the aforementioned company, and trained multiple models for predicting the price of advertising media, influencer, and their situation of profit. Two learning approaches and three approaches and multiple machine learning algorithms were implemented.

#Bekhatereman Campaign Data-Driven Analysis

November 2020
-
January 2021

In this project, I analyzed the #Bekhatereman campaign (a CSR Campaign for the Official Distributor of Mitsubishi Motors in Iran) data with the Data Science approach. The goal of this project was to assess the effectiveness of this campaign which was held on Instagram based on advertising cost and sentiment analysis. In this project, I have used the CRISP-DM methodology. Every aspect of this project was implemented from scratch by me the most important section is data gathering which I designed and developed an Instagram bot to retrieve the data necessary for this endeavor. In this project, I have trained more than 250 models with different algorithms and hyperparameters.

Test-Driven Design Playground

August 2022
-
August 2022

In this repository, I have implemented the test-driven design pattern for a simple problem within Python. also, a basic test for GitHub workflow to achieve CI is implemented. This project is inspired by the "Learning Test-Driven Development" book by Saleem Siddiqui, all credits are due to this book.

Multiple NN Architectures with PyTorch

March 2021
-
March 2021

I implemented multiple and famous architectures of neural networks with the PyTorch library. Almost all of the mentioned neural network architectures in skills are implemented in this project. It's worth mentioning that multiple datasets such as MNIST, CIFAR, etc. are used in this project.

Implementation of ANN from Scratch

March 2021
-
March 2021

I implemented an artificial neural network from scratch with 4 different models, for instances in which I used a deep learning library, I used PyTorch.
