About Me

I am Priyesh Dave, Data science professional with 3.8 years of experience around Machine Learning, Natural Language Processing, Deep Learning, Predictive Modeling, and Statistical Analysis.

Passionate about leveraging data science and ML to build products & services which help solve real-world business problems. Motivated to learn, grow and excel in Artificial Intelligence Industry. Presently working as Data Scientist at Tata Consultancy Services in a small agile team for building machine learning models for Westpac Bank and customized core banking software suite.

Adept at organizing and executing complex projects that deliver exceptional results across an array of endeavors in both the profit and non-profit sectors. Presently seeking for Data Scientist and Machine Learning role with long-term goal of being meaningful contributor to an organization.

Open source Outreach and working team member at Omdena, a collaborative platform to build innovative, ethical, and efficient AI and Data Science solutions to real-world problems.

Experience


Tata Consultancy Services

Working with exceptional Westpac team to build cutting-edge ML/AI solutions of banking suits. Responsible for building Machine Learning model for payments systems that identifies the customers with abusive comments in payments systems.

• Redesigned Westpac’s data masking app by using NLP which masks the confidential user information from the production logs.

• Implemented FraudPay model to detect the fraudulent payments search used by Westpac’s WDP environment.

Omdena

Open source Outreach and working team member at Omdena, a collaborative platform to build innovative, ethical, and efficient AI and Data Science solutions to real-world problems.

Project 1: Document Redaction

• Working as an open source contributor with 45 collaborators across the world to build a NLP system for redacting the confidential texts from the documents.

• Leading the data analysis team, and deriving data insights from labeled data to drive product and optimizing the algorithms for redacting the confidential data in the file.

• Leading the data analysis team, and deriving data insights from labeled data to drive product and optimizing the algorithms for redacting the confidential data in the file.

Project 2: Sustainability Benchmarking System

• Machine Learning Engineer Lead at Omdena, building a Global Company Sustainability Benchmarking System for SustainLab based in Sweden.

• The result of this project, which is related to text mining and text analysis of annual sustainability reports that companies publish globally, will be used to benchmark companies in their industry and globally.

• The sustainability benchmarking system combined with their software product will be very valuable for companies, and the comparison against competitors is a compelling incentive for companies to set more ambitious goals and take bolder steps towards those goals.

Projects

I have working on various real world projects ranging from classic Machine Learning to Deep Learning including applications for Natural Language Processing and Computer Vision.



Project 1: Document Redaction

This project revolves around the ability to recognize sensitive words within documents. To do this I am making use of Natural Language Processing(NLP) where the focus is on Named Entity Recognition which searches a body of text and classifies named entities into predefined categories.



Project 2: Intent Matcher Application

Developed a hybrid model to predict intent of two questions based on generating a context-rich text feature vector by combining single words and word sequences to form a multi-dimensional word embedding structure using Word2Vec model.



Project 3: Auto Text Generation

Developed an intelligent application that predicts the next n words given a sequence of words based on a Markov's N-Grams assumption.



Project 4: Movies Recommender System

Developed an intelligent application that recommends user movies related to the movie selected by the them based on Cosine Similarity among the movies.



Project 5: Road Traffic Severity Predictor

RTA severity predictor is an application which predicts the severity of road traffic accident, so as to pave the way for improving the safety level of road traffic.



Project 6: Patient Survival Predictor

Developed and verified a Deep Learning model for predicting the risk of death in ICU patients. Because the traditional regression model predicts mortality rate based on a simplified relationship between predictor variables and prognosis, it is difficult to improve the predictive ability of that model. Therefore, based on the strong nonlinear fitting ability and more precise algorithms of deep learning, I constructed a neural-network model for predicting the survival rate of patients in the ICU's and explored the influencing patient factors.



Project 7: Cyberbully Detector

Developed and verified a Deep Learning (BidirectionalLSTM) model that classifies whether a given comment is toxic or not.



Applied ML

Implemented Machine Learning algorithms from scratch using python.
