Crime Data Analysis of Chicagoland
December 1, 2014 – Present
The primary objective of crime analysis was to assist the police in reducing and preventing crime and disorder. Different characteristics of crime and disorder are relevant in crime analysis, but the three most important kinds of information that crime analysts use are sociodemographic, spatial, and temporal. Sociodemographic information consists of the personal characteristics of individuals and groups, such as sex, race, income, age, and education. Detected correlations between various parameters such as school truancy and a rise in neighborhood burglaries. Understanding complicated patterns and utilized data and applying data science in an effort to make high-crime neighborhoods safer. Ran various analysis such as Discriminant Analysis, Cluster Analysis etc. on the Public Data of Chicagoland and developed our own association rules to the various data variables and statistically predicted the crime, their nature and the safety of localities of Chicago-land using various models such as Multinomial-Regression analysis and Support vector machines and neural networks and observed the performance of each of these methods and develop an mixed model based on regression and neural network to achieve a higher prediction rate. Utilized the crime data for geographic patterns to predict crime “hotspots” and the nature of crime.
Simulation of Campus Recreation Center
October 1, 2014 – December 1, 2014
The UC Campus Recreation Center is an impressive building, with over 200,000 square feet of recreation facilities.

Parkinsonian Tremor-A non-traditional approach to research Parkinson’s disease and analyze various causal relations
September 1, 2013 – April 1, 2014
Tremor is one of the cardinal symptoms of Parkinson's disease. Up to now, however, its pathophysiology remains poorly understood. Previously, oscillatory coupling at tremor frequency between the subthalamic nucleus und affected muscles was shown. In these studies, however, causality of coupling could not be demonstrated. Thus, we analyzed the statistical causality between intraoperatively recorded local field potentials in the subthalamic area and affected arm muscles during tremor episodes, using squared partial directed coherence, a recently developed causality measure. The analysis identified differential statistical causality patterns for Parkinson's disease patients of the akinetic-rigid subtype during tremor episodes (n=6) versus patients of the tremor-dominant subtype (n=8): for the akinetic-rigid Parkinson's disease patients significantly more cases of the subthalamic region were found to be statistically causal for electromyographic-tremor activity, a result in accordance with the standard basal ganglia model. In contrast, for the tremor-dominant patients, significantly more instances of electromyographic tremor activity turned out to be causal for activity of the subthalamic region
Design of Static-Dynamic piezo resistive pressure transducer
April 1, 2013 – August 1, 2013
There is a need to measure static and dynamic conditions in many gas turbine applications, in particular for combustion instabilities, such as those in the afterburner. The DC and low frequency components are typically used for conventional engine control, while the high frequency data is essential for acoustic screech and rumble diagnostics and control. This project presents a static-dynamic piezoresistive pressure transducer that measures low amplitude, dynamic pressure perturbations superimposed on top of a high pressure through the implementation of low pass mechanical structures. The transducer, which is capable of operating at ultra-high temperatures and in harsh environments, consists of a static piezoresistive pressure transducer, which measures the large pressures on the order of 200psi and greater, and an ultrasensitive, dynamic piezoresistive pressure transducer which captures small, high frequency pressure oscillations on the order of a few psi. The heightened sensitivity in high pressure environments is achieved by filtering the measured pressure of high frequency content through an innovative low pass mechanical filter structure. The large static pressures passed by the low-pass mechanical filter structures are routed to the backside of the dynamic pressure sensor, which results in both the front and the back of the dynamic sensor being exposed to the large pressures within the environment. Therefore, the large static pressures cancel out, and the dynamic sensor only senses the low magnitude, high frequency pressure perturbations. The transfer function characterization of a fully operational static-dynamic pressure transducer over a wide bandwidth. Based upon the analytical and experimental results, the static-dynamic pressure transducer will make it possible for turbine users and manufacturers to implement ultra-sensitive pressure monitoring to reduce compressor and combustion instabilities
