<p>Working as a Senior Academic Data Scientist in the
<a href="http://www.hajim.rochester.edu/bme/" class="underline" target="_blank">Deptartment of Biomedical Engineering</a>. My role involved four core aspects:
Research, Data collection using state of the art biomedical imagine technologies, Data cleaning and analyses using computational modelling of multidimensional data,
and dissemination of results in forms of stakeholders, publications, conferences, and teaching. This includes:</p>
<p>
<ul><li> Successfully demonstrated evidence to support the hypothesis that the brain uses top-down predictive coding to improve modeling of linguistic features of incoming complex natural speech using ML applications.
<li> Improved existing models descripting hierarchical processing of complex natural language processing from low-level acoustic input in human neuroimaging data using various models based on GloVe, NLP, Mutual Information and Entropy.
<li> Extensive Experience of neuroimaging data collection, data cleaning and analyses using complex computational modelling and statistics based on machine learning approaches and statistics of model parameters using bootstrapping and non-parametric Monte Carlo permutation statistics.
<li> Developed custom code for analysing clinical animal models and statistically compared model parameter outputs with human models.
<li> Used various predictive analytics such as speech-to-text algorithms and Montreal Forced Phoneme Alignment to parametrise speech used to predictive linguistic coding in the brain.
<li> Being proficient in various technologies: Matlab, Excel, Git / Github, Bash, Signal processing.
<li> Intermediate: Python, Pandas, Numpy, Scikit-learn. | Novice: R, Cloud services (AWS).
