Utilizing Joinpoint Regression Analysis for Socio-economic Insights

This research project is focused on the application of Joinpoint Regression Analysis in socio-economic studies, such as public health for istance. Joinpoint Regression Analysis is a powerful statistical method that allows us to identify critical inflection points or “joinpoints” in temporal data, enabling us to discern trends, discontinuities, and shifts in disease patterns over time. … Read more

Fantasy Football Assistant [TAKEN]

This project aims at using sports analytics models to optimise decision-making in Fantasy Football. By integrating data from multiple sources, including player performance metrics, historical game data, and injury reports, etc., and using statistical analysis and machine learning algorithms you will predict player success and recommend optimal lineups. 

Efficient in-place sparse matrix transpose [Taken]

A sparse matrix is a two-dimensional array where most of the elements are zero. If a very large sparse matrix is stored in normal array format, a huge amount of memory will be needed to store values that are almost all zero. Instead, large sparse matrices are normally stored in a compacted form, where only … Read more

[Taken] A GUI Music Composition Tool For Smartphones

Drumsteps was a reasonably successful Windows based tool, developed in-house, for teaching about music using a graphical interface. This project would involve developing, and evaluating, a smartphone based application inspired by the original program.
