Skills
neural networks python modelling big data analytic problem solvingAre you trying to translate big data into actionable insights? In this project, students in York's Machine Learning Program will build models and recommendations that can be presented to broad audiences at your organization.
Although highly motivated, these are part-time students, and their time for this project is limited to a few hours per week. Their focus will be on building, validating, testing models, and optimizing runs, with 20% of their time spent on cleaning data.
Learners
1. Students will prepare a report on their findings and include details of models. If applicable, future collaborative work between students and your organization will be determined mutually.
2. Students will present key findings and recommendations to representative(s) from your organization.

Project examples
When they start this project, the student will have learned the basics of ML, and working with Python, Hadoop, Spark, MapReduce, TensorFlow/CNTK, Keras, and others. Students can contribute to your initiative by:
1. Kickstarting a project and completing the initial models or proof of concept models.
2. Exploring various modelling approaches and building a prototype; validating, testing, and fine-tuning models.
3. Preparing a report, and possibly working with your organization's employees on future developments in the project and/or on presentations to broader audiences in the business.
