UMass Dartmouth•  August 2024 - Present•  USA

Project: Performance Comparison of Monte Carlo Simulations: Serial vs. Parallel - Designed and implemented serial and parallel Monte Carlo simulations in MATLAB to estimate integrals using random sampling. Analyzed performance metrics, including execution time, speedup, and efficiency, across multiple processors to demonstrate the benefits and limitations of parallel computing. Project: Conducted statistical modeling and predictive analysis to assess Type II Diabetes risk using a dataset of 100,000 records. Applied regression techniques to evaluate the relationship between key predictors, such as HbA1c and blood glucose levels, achieving high predictive accuracy. Performed data preprocessing, exploratory data analysis, and correlation analysis to uncover trends and actionable insights for preventive healthcare.

Analytics Intern
