Spend Classification using Convolutional Neural Networks
February 1, 2017 – June 1, 2017
Used deep learning paradigms to classify spend data of a Fortune 500 company. 1.Re-purposed concepts from latest machine learning models built for text sentiment analysis to classify free text spend data comprising of: supplier's name, general ledger account information, and unstructured free-text information, such as purchase-order description, purchase-order line description. 2. Used Convolutional Neural Networks and Word2Vec to achieve a 13 percent lift in accuracy over the baseline multinomial Naive Bayes model.
Optimization of E-Mail marketing strategy
August 1, 2016 – Present
Used given historical data to derive descriptive signals describing customer behavior, and use those descriptive signals to build predictive signals for predicting customer response. Helping the design of a better E-Mail targeting system.
Large Scale Entity Match problem
July 1, 2016 – February 1, 2017
Organisation of an Unstructured Database of company names for a leading professional services company by Clustering the entities within the database of 4.2 mil so that affiliated companies come together. Given a new entity identification of prospective affiliates and duplicates within the database becomes easier and more efficient. The modified search engine brought up 18% more affiliates on an average for 5000 queries within top 50 ranks as compared to the old system.
