How the work was developed

Each project follows a complete analytics lifecycle.

The case studies are intentionally more detailed so visitors can understand the depth of the work without accessing protected project files.

PROJECT 01 · STOCK RETURN PREDICTION

Financial text, quantitative metrics, and time-aware validation

This project tested whether sentiment, tone, readability, and other numerical text features extracted from SEC filings add predictive value beyond traditional financial metrics.

  • Separated financial-only, text-only, and combined feature sets
  • Applied chronological validation and a three-month buffer
  • Used OLS as an interpretable benchmark
  • Compared prediction error, direction, and rank quality
Business questionDoes filing language improve return prediction?
Data challengeAvoiding leakage in forward-looking returns
Primary valueTransparent evidence rather than exaggerated claims
Portfolio lessonInterpretability and honest validation matter
PROJECT 02 · DIABETES RISK

Preventive healthcare through predictive classification

This project used CDC BRFSS indicators to identify individuals at elevated risk for diabetes and support earlier screening, preventive outreach, and resource prioritization.

  • Cleaned and classified demographic and behavioral variables
  • Compared Logistic Regression and tree-based models
  • Prioritized recall, precision, F1, and ROC-AUC
  • Translated model results into prevention recommendations
Business questionWho should receive earlier preventive attention?
Primary riskFalse negatives in high-risk individuals
Decision useScreening and outreach prioritization
Portfolio lessonAccuracy alone is not enough in healthcare
PROJECT 03 · HIGH-COST PATIENTS

Predicting future cost before crisis utilization

This project used longitudinal healthcare expenditure data to identify patients likely to become high-cost users, supporting earlier intervention and more strategic resource allocation.

  • Used prior-year indicators to predict future high-cost status
  • Evaluated discrimination, ranking, and lift
  • Focused on operational use of the top-risk segment
  • Connected analytics to preventive financial strategy
ROC-AUC0.817 on sealed validation
Top-decile lift4.31× concentration of high-cost cases
Cases captured42.7% in the highest-risk decile
Portfolio lessonRanking quality can drive intervention strategy
PROJECT 04 · HOSPITAL OPTIMIZATION

Forecasting demand and prescribing resource decisions

This project combined CDC hospital operational data, machine learning forecasts, and a resource optimization model to recommend surge beds and additional nursing capacity.

  • Created lag, rolling, seasonal, and operational-stress features
  • Compared baseline, Linear Regression, Random Forest, and XGBoost
  • Used chronological train-test splits
  • Converted forecasts into staffing and bed recommendations
