Using data science and machine learning to understand portfolio theory Capstone project of the Springboard Data Science Intensive course used fundamental accounting data to model market capitalization and the probability of a stock outperforming the benchmark. Showed that a model using only accounting data is unable to incorporate unstructured and intangible information, critical for valuing equities. Concluded that random forest algorithm performs better than linear, logistic regression and support vector machine algorithms in predicting the ability of a stock to generate alpha. https://github.com/arunbharadwaj2009/FinalProjects/blob/master/Springboard_DS%20Intensive_Capstone_Report_Final.pdf https://anaconda.org/arunbharadwaj2009/capstone_dsintensive_final/notebook Using data science to understand potential biases in Dota 2 gameplay Capstone project of the Springboard Foundations of Data Science course used in-game data to understand the effect of team selection, hero selection and item purchase on Dota 2 gameplay. Used logistic regression to show that teams with more than three strength heroes had a higher probability of winning and proposed a relook into the metrics of strength heroes to ensure fair gameplay. http://rpubs.com/arunbharadwaj2009/300754 https://github.com/arunbharadwaj2009/FinalProjects/blob/master/Springboard_Foundations%20of%20DS_Capstone_Code.R Github repository https://github.com/arunbharadwaj2009/FinalProjects Show less
