| Description | |||
|
Use of Python to create a classification model utilizing binary discrimination. The model was used to optimize bank profit from credit card approvals and required the application of techniques such as calculation of the model's predictive power, sensitivity, specificity and fallout, and computation of ROC curves, and precision and recall curves. |
|||
| Dataset | |||
|
Sample credit score data for a collection of individuals, including binary data on whether the individual has paid-off their credit in the past and a score of probability of being approved for future credit. |

| Description | |||
|
Created a linear regression model using Python and Sklearn to predict if an applicant will be admitted to a US University. Techniques such as logistic regression, determination of the model's predictive power, computation of the ROC curve and interpretation of results were used to achieve this outcome. |
|||
| Dataset | |||
|
Data for 1,000 University applicants, including Graduate Record Exam (GRE) score, Grade Point Average (GPA) and whether the applicant was/was not admitted. |
