Data Analytics Student Capstone Projects, 2020-2021
Bitcoin sentiment analysis, addison mcfeely, jordan fujioka, myles lewis, and ning li.
In this paper, we try to analyze how the sentiments of the public, remarks of some celebrities, and news reports influence the bitcoin price. We build models based on the dataset of bitcoin price and text dataset from the source of Kaggle, Twitter, and OpenBlender. At last, we conclude that perdition models with sentiment analysis perform better than onefold price prediction. The bitcoin price is very hard to predict, and the predictive models are not so reliable to do the forecast for bitcoin price considering the accuracy rate of the models.
Does Happiness Matter?
The aim of this project was to build a deep learning model, in order to predict employee turnover based on employee’s self-reported happiness and satisfaction. The data comes from 34 companies in Barcelona that utilize HappyForce, an informative system that aims to collect data on employee satisfaction and daily happiness.
Energy in California: The Path to Renewable Energy
Jenna vogelsang, christa copenhaver, peichen geng and nabil syed.
California is currently taking an initiative to adopt clean renewable energy resources by 2035. Our project aims to examine the future of energy usage in the state of California and how different methods of electricity generation can impact the state in upcoming years. Our data was extracted from the U.S. Energy Information Administration and cleaned using Python. The researchers chose to do a time series analysis in hopes of predicting how energy usage will change as more renewable methods are adopted by 2035. The model chosen was the prophet model created by Facebook in 2017. This model was chosen because it accounts for seasonality and holiday effects which both have an impact on energy usage. The findings of our study indicate a steady upward trend of both electricity consumption and generation with the largest sources being natural gas and solar energy.
FOMO: Can Twitter Sentiment Predict Crypto Prices?
Rj copeland and robert spring.
The intent of our Capstone project is to observe the effect of Twitter sentiment on Crypto prices. The coins of interest are Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Litecoin. The data for sentiment analysis is pulled from Twitter. The Crypto data is comprised of static files showing minute based Crypto price changes relative to the coins listed above. The model used is a Long Short-Term Memory model (LSTM). Both the model and exploratory analysis are implemented in Python.
Forecasting Web Traffic
Dane turnbull.
This project looks at the problem of forecasting future values of time-series data. Wikipedia has over 145,000 articles and their view counts available to analyze. Following the Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA) process I was able to develop an Auto-Regressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) model that showed a prediction of view counts for the following 45 – 60 days. Web forecasting is gaining popularity and has many applications including load balancing for cloud services, and understanding user behavior.
Major League Soccer Analysis
With highly influential salary restrictions in Major League Soccer, organizations must navigate limited high-dollar signings and maximize effectiveness of lower cost players while translating their signings to positive team performance. My goal was to use historical player performances, salary data, and team results to find trends and understand the key metrics that result in successful team performances. This analysis can be leveraged by MLS organizations and scouts to sign the most effective players and increase chances of team success.
MLB Optimizing Outfield Alignments
Tyler julian.
This project serves to provide a program that uses variable Euclidean distance means model to create optimized outfield shifts for MLB teams. Utilizing variables such as hang time of the ball, outfielder’s reaction, jump, and speed. The result is a GUI developed in R that could be used both in a gameday setting and used by front offices to determine which players fit in to their defensive schemes better.

9 Project Ideas for Your Data Analytics Portfolio
Finding projects for your data analytics portfolio can be tricky, especially when you’re new to the field. You might also think that your data projects need to be especially complex or showy, but that’s not the case. The most important thing is to demonstrate your skills, ideally using a dataset that interests you. And the good news? Data is everywhere—you just need to know where to find it and what to do with it.
In this post, we’ll highlight the key elements that your data analytics portfolio should demonstrate. We’ll then share nine project ideas that will help you build your portfolio from scratch, focusing on three key areas: Data scraping , exploratory analysis , and data visualization .
We’ll cover:
- What should you include in your data analytics portfolio?
Data scraping project ideas
Exploratory data analysis project ideas, data visualization project ideas.
- What’s next?
Ready to get inspired? Let’s go!
1. What should you include in your data analytics portfolio?
Data analytics is all about finding insights that inform decision-making. But that’s just the end goal. As any experienced data analyst will tell you, the insights we see as consumers are the result of a great deal of work. In fact, about 80% of all data analytics tasks involve preparing data for analysis. This makes sense when you think about it—after all, our insights are only as good as the quality of our data.
Yes, your portfolio needs to show that you can carry out different types of data analysis . But it also needs to show that you can collect data, clean it, and report your findings in a clear, visual manner. As your skills improve, your portfolio will grow in complexity. As a beginner though, you’ll need to show that you can:
- Scrape the web for data
- Carry out exploratory analyses
- Clean untidy datasets
- Communicate your results using visualizations
If you’re inexperienced, it can help to present each item as a mini-project of its own. This makes life easier since you can learn the individual skills in a controlled way. With that in mind, we’ll keep it nice and simple with some basic ideas, and a few tools you might want to explore to help you along the way.
2. Data scraping project ideas for your portfolio
What is data scraping.
Data scraping is the first step in any data analytics project. It involves pulling data (usually from the web) and compiling it into a usable format. While there’s no shortage of great data repositories available online, scraping and cleaning data yourself is a great way to show off your skills.
The process of web scraping can be automated using tools like Parsehub , ScraperAPI , or Octoparse (for non-coders) or by using libraries like Beautiful Soup or Scrapy (for developers). Whichever tool you use, the important thing is to show that you understand how it works and can apply it effectively.
Before scraping a website, be sure that you have permission to do so. If you’re not certain, you can always search for a dataset on a repository site like Kaggle . If it exists there, it’s a good bet you can go straight to the source and scrape it yourself. Bear in mind though—data scraping can be challenging if you’re mining complex, dynamic websites. We recommend starting with something easy—a mostly-static site. Here are some ideas to get you started.
The Internet Movie Database
A good beginner’s project is to extract data from IMDb. You can collect details about popular TV shows, movie reviews and trivia, the heights and weights of various actors, and so on. Data on IMDb is stored in a consistent format across all its pages, making the task a lot easier. There’s also a lot of potential here for further analysis.
Job portals
Many beginners like scraping data from job portals since they often contain standard data types. You can also find lots of online tutorials explaining how to proceed. To keep it interesting, why not focus on your local area? Collect job titles, companies, salaries, locations, required skills, and so on. This offers great potential for later visualization, such as graphing skillsets against salaries.
E-commerce sites
Another popular one is to scrape product and pricing data from e-commerce sites. For instance, extract product information about Bluetooth speakers on Amazon, or collect reviews and prices on various tablets and laptops. Once again, this is relatively straightforward to do, and it is scalable. This means you can start with a product that has a small number of reviews, and then upscale once you’re comfortable using the algorithms.
For something a bit less conventional, another option is to scrape a site like Reddit. You could search for particular keywords, upvotes, user data, and more. Reddit is a very static website, making the task nice and straightforward. Later, you can carry out interesting exploratory analyses, for instance, to see if there are any correlations between popular posts and particular keywords. Which brings us to our next section.
3. Exploratory data analysis project ideas
What is exploratory data analysis.
The next step in any data analyst’s skillset is the ability to carry out an exploratory data analysis (EDA). An EDA looks at the structure of data, allowing you to determine their patterns and characteristics. They also help you to clean your data. You can extract important variables, detect outliers and anomalies, and generally test your underlying assumptions.
While this process is one of the most time-consuming tasks for a data analyst, it can also be one of the most rewarding. Later modeling focuses on generating answers to specific questions. An EDA, meanwhile, helps you do one of the most exciting bits—generating those questions in the first place.
Languages like R and Python are often used to carry out these tasks. They have many pre-existing algorithms that you can use to carry out the work for you . The real skill lies in presenting your project and its results. How you decide to do this is up to you, but one popular method is to use an interactive documentation tool like Jupyter Notebook . This lets you capture elements of code, along with explanatory text and visualizations, all in one place. Here are some ideas for your portfolio.
Global suicide rates
This global suicide rates dataset covers suicide rates in various countries, with additional data including year, gender, age, population, GDP, and more. When carrying out your EDA, ask yourself: What patterns can you see? Are suicides rates climbing or falling in various countries? What variables (such as gender or age) can you find that might correlate to suicide rates?
World Happiness Report
On the other end of the scale, the World Happiness Report tracks six factors to measure happiness across the world’s citizens: life expectancy, economics, social support, absence of corruption, freedom, and generosity. So, which country is the happiest? Which continent? Which factor appears to have the greatest (or smallest) impact on a nation’s happiness? Overall, is happiness increasing or decreasing?
Aside from the two ideas above, you could also use your own datasets . After all, if you’ve already scraped your own data, why not use them? For instance, if you scraped a job portal, which locations or regions offer the best-paid jobs? Which offer the least well-paid ones? Why might that be? Equally, with e-commerce data, you could look at which prices and products offer the best value for money.
Ultimately, whichever dataset you’re using, it should grab your attention. If the data are too complex or don’t interest you, you’re likely to run out of steam before you get very far. Keep in mind what further probing you can do to spot interesting trends or patterns, and to extract the insights you need.
We’ve compiled a list of ten great places to find free datasets for your next project here .
4. Data visualization project ideas
What is data visualization.
Scraping, tidying, and analyzing data is one thing. Communicating your findings is another. Our brains don’t like looking at numbers and figures, but they love visuals. This is where the ability to create effective data visualizations comes in. Good visualizations—whether static or interactive—make a great addition to any data analytics portfolio. Showing that you can create visualizations that are both effective and visually appealing will go a long way towards impressing a potential employer.
Check out this video with Dr. Humera, where she explains how visualization helps tell a story with data.
Some free visualization tools include Google Charts , Canva Graph Maker (free), and Tableau Public . Meanwhile, if you want to show off your coding abilities, use a Python library such as Seaborn , or flex your R skills with Shiny . Needless to say, there are many tools available to help you. The one you choose depends on what you’re looking to achieve. Here’s a bit of inspiration…
Topical subject matter looks great on any portfolio, and the pandemic is nothing if not topical! What’s more, sites like Kaggle already have thousands of Covid-19 data sets available . How can you represent the data? Could you use a global heatmap to show where cases have spiked, versus where there are very few? Perhaps you could create two overlapping bar charts to show known infections versus predicted infections. Here’s a handy tutorial to help you visualize Covid-19 data using R, Shiny, and Plotly .
Most followed on Instagram
Whether you’re interested in social media, or celebrity and brand culture, this dataset of the most-followed people on Instagram has great potential for visualization. You could create an interactive bar chart that tracks changes in the most followed accounts over time. Or you could explore whether brand or celebrity accounts are more effective at influencer marketing. Otherwise, why not find another social media dataset to create a visualization? For instance, this map of the USA by data scientist Greg Rafferty nicely highlights the geographical source of trending topics on Instagram.
Travel data
Another topic that lends itself well to visualization is transport data. Here’s a great project by Chen Chen on github , using Python to visualize the top tourist destinations worldwide, and the correlation between inbound/outbound tourists with gross domestic product (GDP).
5. What’s next?
In this post, we’ve explored which skills every beginner needs to demonstrate in their data analytics portfolio. Regardless of the dataset you’re using, you should be able to demonstrate the following abilities:
- Web scraping —using tools like Parsehub, Beautiful Soup, or Scrapy to extract data from websites (remember: static ones are easier!)
- Exploratory data analysis and data cleaning —manipulating data with tools like R and Python, before drawing some initial insights.
- Data visualization —utilizing tools like Tableau, Shiny, or Plotly to create crisp, compelling dashboards, and visualizations.
Once you’ve mastered the basics, you can start getting more ambitious with your data analytics projects. For example, why not introduce some machine learning projects, like sentiment analysis or predictive analysis? The key thing is to start simple and to remember that a good data analytics portfolio needn’t be flashy, just competent.
To further develop your skills, there are loads of online courses designed to set you on the right track. To start with, why not try our free, five-day data analytics short course ?

Data science capstone ideas (and how to get started)
Capstones are standalone projects meant to integrate, synthesize, and demonstrate all your data science knowledge in a multi-faceted way. Capstone projects show your readiness for using data science in real life, and are ideally something you can add to your resume, show to employers, or even use to start a career.
I find data science capstone ideas are like puppies: you want all of them, but can only keep one. Below is a list of some of my ideas and starting points.
Idea #1: Nutritional analysis from Instacart orders
In 2017 Instacart released a dataset of over 3 million grocery orders from over 200,000 users as a Kaggle competition . With a dataset this juicy, immediately a few ideas come time to mind:
- Predict what products users will order again (this was the goal of the Kaggle challenge).
- Build a model to stock the store so there are never any product shortages, but no wasted space or money in ordering.
- Predict a user’s healthiness from order content.
- Make a recommender system for healthier order alternatives.
The first and second are doable with the data you already have, which is nice.
The third was my personal choice, using the USDA food composition database to look up products and create a nutritional breakdown (by the way, they have an API ). But it also introduced a lot of hurdles:
- Users don’t eat everything they order (e.g. cat food, soap, toilet paper). This would require a lot of cleaning and munging.
- Users don’t order just for themselves (e.g. companies, birthday parties, families).
- Users order on different timelines (e.g. once per week, once every two weeks, once a month).
- Items such as deli food may not have entries in the USDA database.
The fourth would also utilize the USDA database, but would not require any user-specific information or messing about with time-series.
I dea #2: Predicting solar output from satellite imaging/historical weather
One of the big issues with mainstream adoption of solar power is unlike other energy sources (hydroelectric, oil, nuclear), you can’t control how long the sun shines for. Overestimating this amount means losses for producers and investors, and downtime for users. Underestimating means a lower chance of adoption in upfront decision-making. Sounds like a job for… machine learning!
Many datasets can be found at NREL , however they are in different years and different locations with limits on how much you can download at once. They have an API , which is useful.
SolarAnywhere has an academic license, allowing you to look up any location (but only for the year 2013). They too have an API .
Also, the NREL NSRDB data viewer .
There are three immediate approaches I can think of:
- Using previous solar output to predict current solar output (time-series or RNN).
- Using weather datasets
- Using satellite imaging datasets
There are a lot of academic papers on this last subject ( a quick Google Scholar search returns about 30,000 results ), but not a lot of publicly available satellite time-series datasets.
Idea #3: Fake news detection
This is a hot one. Without going into full rant-mode, fake news is obviously deleterious for democracy and individual mental stability.
So how to accurately identify what’s fake and what’s true? Here are a few leads on this as a data science problem:
1. Fake News Challenge
This is the best-formatted challenge around this topic, with organizers, advisors, and volunteers from the academic, ML, and fact-checking communities. Includes GitHub repos of winning submissions. Check out the competition page on Codalab.
2. Snopes Junk News
A starting point for well-verified fake news stories vs. actual events.
3. Getting Real About Fake News — Kaggle Dataset
A collection of nearly 13,000 items from 244 websites tagged “BS” from the BS Detector chrome extension. The BS Detector is powered by Open Sources , a project that classifies biased and fake websites.
Where To Get More Ideas
Never stop searching! Here are some ways to get more leads, either in the form of project ideas or datasets to use.

2. Kaggle Competitions
3. Kaggle Datasets
4. reddit.com/r/datasets
5. Awesome Public Datasets GitHub Repo

Google Data Analytics Capstone Project
Updated: Feb 22
I worked on the Google Data Analytics Capstone Project, Track 1, Case Study 1. I will be diving into the background, my full process of cleaning, analyzing and visualizing the data, along with my final suggestions and summary of the data.

What I Learned
Cyclistic is a bike sharing program which features more than 5,800 bikes and 600 docking stations. It offers reclining bikes, hand tricycles, and cargo bikes, making it more inclusive to people with disabilities and riders who can't use a standard two-wheeled bike. It was founded in 2016 and has grown tremendously into a fleet of bicycles that are geotracked and locked into a network of 692 stations across Chicago. The bikes can be unlocked from one station and returned to any other station in the system anytime.
Previously, Cyclistic's marketing strategy tried to build the general awareness and appeal to broad consumers. It has flexible pricing plans: single-ride passes, full-day passes, and annual memberships. Those who purchase single-ride or full-day passes are referred to as casual riders while those who purchase annual memberships are Cyclistic members .
My Role : In this scenario I am a junior data analyst at Cyclistic and my team has been tasked with the overall goal (see below) of designing marketing strategies
Overall Goal : Design marketing strategies aimed at converting casual riders into annual members.
Business Question : "How do annual members and casual riders use Cyclistic bikes differently?"
Below I will describe step-by-step the process I used to for this project. If you want to skip ahead to the business suggestions move onto the section "Insights".
Overview : I first analyzed the data separately (each month) in Excel, then used R to analyze the data as a whole (one year). Finally I created a dashboard in Tableau and used Figma to support the design elements.
I initially wanted to gather and analyze my data in Excel because it was the tool I was most familiar with and I could get a general understanding of the data quicker. I did not combine all of the spreadsheets into one because that would've taken more processing power than my computer had.
I began downloading the data from divvy-tripdata , and turning the .csv files into excel spreadsheets. I downloaded the most recent year of data which was at the time of starting my project:
August 2020
September 2020
October 2020
November 2020
December 2020
January 2021
February 2021
Added two columns to all of the months:
ride_length calculated the total ride length for each trip using the start_at column which was: ending time minus starting time.
day_of_week calculated the day of the week for each trip using the start_at column date.
Went over the business task and the information I had at hand and how that could be used to figure out how members and casual riders use the bike service differently
Came up with metrics to look at such as :
total number of rides per hour, per day of the month, per season, per day of the week, and for different bike types
Average ride length between members and casual
For every month in Excel created pivot tables and charts to go with the analysis on (this took the longest):
Total Rides per Weekday - calculated the total rides for members and casual and separated it by day of the week; used a cluster column chart
Average Ride Length - calculated the average ride length for members and casual and separated it by day of the week; used a cluster column chart
Total Rides per Hour - calculated the total rides for members and casual separated by the time of the day (24hr); used a line comparison chart
Total Rides per Day - calculated the total rides for members and casual separated by the day of the month; used a line comparison chart
Total Rides per Bike Type - calculated the total rides for members and casual separated by Bike type; used stacked column chart
I also created a Google docs Notes list where I wrote down the exact steps for each month (had a checklist) and included my insights for each month
Time Spent:
535 minutes or just under 9 hours to complete.
I originally wanted to use SQL but the files were too big to upload and I couldn't figure out how to utilize Google Cloud Platform. Instead I used R to analyze the data because it could handle all of the information quicker than Excel, and I wanted to work on my R skills. Below is my general process in R, I didn't include my mistakes/missteps or errors for the sake of brevity. If you are interested in my full process including my mistakes, you can email me at: [email protected] and I would be happy to discuss it.
View my full code on my Github for this capstone project here .
Load all of the libraries I used: tidyverse, lubridate, hms, data.table
Uploaded all of the original data from the data source divytrip into R using read_csv function to upload all individual csv files and save them in separate data frames. For august 2020 data I saved it into aug08_df, september 2020 to sep09_df and so on.
Merged the 12 months of data together using rbind to create a one year view
Created a new data frame called cyclistic_date that would contain all of my new columns
Created new columns for:
Ride Length - did this by subtracting end_at time from start_at time
Day of the Week
Time - convert the time to HH:MM:SS format
Season - Spring, Summer, Winter or Fall
Time of Day - Night, Morning, Afternoon or Evening
Cleaned the data by:
Removing duplicate rows
Remove rows with NA values (blank rows)
Remove where ride_length is 0 or negative (ride_length should be a positive number)
Remove unnecessary columns: ride_id, start_station_id, end_station_id, start_lat, start_long, end_lat, end_lng
Calculated Total Rides for:
Total number of rides which was just the row count = 4,152,139
Member type - casual riders vs. annual members
Type of Bike - classic vs docked vs electric; separated by member type and total rides for each bike type
Hour - separated by member type and total rides for each hour in a day
Time of Day - separated by member type and total rides for each time of day (morning, afternoon, evening, night)
Day of the Week - separated by member type and total rides for each day of the week
Day of the Month - separated by member type and total rides for each day of the month
Month - separated by member type and total rides for each month
Season - separated by member type and total rides for each season (spring, summer, fall, winter)
Calculated Average Ride Length for:
Total average ride length
Type of Bike - separated by member type and average ride length for each bike type
Hour - separated by member type and average ride length for each hour in a day
Time of Day - separated by member type and average ride length for each time of day (morning, afternoon, evening, night)
Day of the Week - separated by member type and average ride length for each day of the week
Day of the Month - separated by member type and average ride length for each day of the month
Month - separated by member type and average ride length for each month
Season - separated by member type and average ride lengths for each season (spring, summer, fall, winter)
Then using all of this data I created my own summary in my case notes and took note of the: total rides for each variable, average ride lengths for each variable, and the difference between members versus casual riders. I originally wanted to create a report using R Markdown as well but for the sake of time (I had already spent over 20 hours on the project so far), I decided to skip this step, and write this article instead.
1045 minutes or about 17 and a half hours to complete.
While I learned the basics of Tableau in the Google Course I wanted more practice with visualizing data and creating dashboards.
To view my completed dashboard click here .
I created a separate R code (you can view it here on Github) that made some changes for specifically the Tableau portion.
For ride length I rounded the digits by 1, meaning my numbers were 29.8 or 12.5.
Revised how I created my "month" column. I used mutate() to create a column that had the month in ___ format and not number format. So instead of 01 it would say "January"
Cleaned the data: removed rows with NA values, removed duplicate rows, removed where ride_length was 0 or negative and removed unnecessary columns like: ride_id, start_station_id, end_station_id, start_lat, start_long, end_lat, end_lng
Created a new dataframe with this information so I could test the difference between the original data frame (cyclistic_date) that I used for my analysis and the data frame I would use for Tableau (cyclistic_tableau).
In this new data frame I removed more columns to make calculations quicker in Tableau. I removed: start_station_name, end_station_name, time, started_at, ended_at
Downloaded this data frame into a .csv file which I uploaded to Tableau
Created graphs similar to those I created in Excel but added a few:
Total Rides by Bike Type
Ride Length by Weekday
Total Rides by Weekday
Total rides by hour, total rides by month.
Then I created a basic dashboard with all of that information, a prototype for me to view while I was creating the final dashboard ( Figure 1 below).
Created a prototype mockup in Figma, added in values like average ride length, busiest month, season, hour, time of day, and most used bike type
Created a final version of the mockup in Figma
Edited Dashboard in Tableau to reflect design in Figma
Edited graphs in Tableau
Made bar graphs round
Added annotations
Highlights to specific important notes
Got rid of labels for visual purposes
Combined Figma and Tableau (used dashboard created in Figma as the background for my Tableau Dashboard) to create a final prototype ( Figure 2 below)
Made minor edits to design elements and created final dashboard (see Finished Project below)
765 minutes or almost 13 hours to complete.

I am including the other tools I used.
Figma to create my background and help develop the dashboard aesthetics.
Google Docs helped me keep track of all of my documents for this project like:
Date Log - I wrote down what I did that day related to my project
Resources - A list of resources I frequently used
Case Notes - Notes for the case study including the final insights, what I was looking for, and anything else having to do with the case
Evernote to draft this article before I uploaded it here.
FINISHED PROJECT
Here is my finished project: Google Capstone Project | Cyclistic . You can view the links to my R code on Github used for analysis here and the code for Tableau here .

SUMMARY OF DATA
Those who purchase single-ride or full-day passes are referred to as casual riders while those who purchase annual memberships are Cyclistic members .
Total Rides by User Type
Average Ride Length per User Type
Average Ride per Weekday
Members had more rides with 2,328,763 total rides or 56% and casual riders had 1,823,376 total rides or 43%.

Total Rides per Bike Type
Both casual riders and members used the classic bike the most with 1,777,593 rides or 43% of total rides, followed by docked bikes with 1,545,936 rides or 37% of total rides, and lastly with electric bikes at 828,610 rides or 20% of total rides.

Average Ride Length by User Type
The total average ride length was 24 minutes. For casual riders it was longer at 27 minutes while members was 14 minutes.

Average Ride Length per Weekday
For the average ride length per weekday both casual riders and members had an increase in the average ride length on the weekends. For both Sunday was the longest at 31 minutes.

Saturday was the most popular weekday combining casual riders and member rides with 784,239 rides or 19% of total rides. But for member rides only Wednesday was the most popular day with 356,060 rides, 5,407 rides more than Saturday.

5PM or 17:00 was the busiest hour for both members and casual riders with 426,685 rides or 10% of the total rides. Typically rides began increasing in the morning at 6AM and rose until 5PM then dropped afterwards. The afternoon was the busiest for both rider types with 1,905,797 rides or 45% of total rides. 4AM was the least popular hour.

July was the busiest month combining casual riders and member rides at 691,476 rides or 16% of total rides. While summer was the most popular season for both at 1,903,446 rides or 46% of total rides. Looking at just members August is actually the busiest month with 323,140 rides, 816 rides more than July. Winter is the least popular season and February is the least popular month.

Final Summary
The most popular bike among with riders was the classic.
Busiest time was afternoon and the peak time was at 5PM for both casual riders and members.
Busiest weekday was Saturday, casual riders used the service the most on the weekends.
Busiest season was Summer for both types of riders.
Most rides by User Type was members but casual riders weren't far behind.
The average ride length was 24 minutes but casual riders on average rode 23 minutes longer than members.
BUSINESS SUGGESTIONS
This was the hardest part for me for the whole project. I have never provided suggestions for a business nor worked in marketing. Any feedback here would be appreciated.
These are my suggestions for the marketing team to convert casual riders to annual members:
Personalize discounts and show perks in the membership program based on their preferences and riding habits.
Emphasize the benefits of memberships, including discounts during busy times of the year like during Summer, or on the weekends.
Have existing members to share their stories about how using Cyclistic's system has changed their life, to create a sense of community, offer a discount if they do so this will help encourage new riders to join the program.
WHAT I LEARNED
Below is what I learned/practiced from over 40 hours spent on this project:
Pivot Tables in Microsoft Excel
Practice using R for data analysis and cleaning specifically using the tidyverse package for data analysis
Graphs in Tableau, edited visual elements along with creating different charts and filters.
Design elements of an effective dashboard
Combining the design feature of Figma with the functionality of Tableau
R portion of my project I found Itamar's case study on Kaggle using R as well, a helpful resource.

If you are an aspiring data scientist, you should be focusing more on improving your technical capabilities. By doing so, you will be increasing your skill level as a data scientist. The best way to practice your art is to take up personal projects to boost your knowledge, skills , and confidence.
Analyzing data also plays a significant role in your career growth. It is mostly about discovering new insights that can help with your decision making process. Even if you ask a veteran analyst, he will tell you that the intuition we see as consumers results from hard work. And around 80% of all data analytics assignments start with the evaluation of data. So, a data scientist needs to know more about data analysis and its types.
Rest assured, as time progresses; you will develop the necessary skills needed to collect data and produce reports based on your findings. You should also be able to:
- Clean the web data
- Execute exploratory analysis
- Flush cluttered datasets
- Visually communicate your results.
However, the most crucial part of becoming a skilled data scientist is working on various projects that focus on data scraping, exploratory analysis, and data visualization. So, let’s get started. Here are some of the project ideas that you will need to build up your job profile as a data scientist.
Table of Contents
Data Scraping Project Ideas
1. movie data collection.
This beginner project will help you gain the necessary skills needed for a data scientist. Its primary aim is to collect and extract data for further analysis. For that purpose, you can use the IMDB website to gather information about popular movies, TV shows, actors, etc. The format for this website is relatively consistent and makes it easier to attain data for analysis. Besides, the project has great potential when it comes to data collection.
2. Job Websites
Nowadays, scraping data from job portals are used for training beginner data scientists. It is because these websites contain standard data types. You can also maximize your learning capabilities through different online tutorial sessions. The main objective is to collect data and information about job titles, companies, locations, skills, etc. This project has an excellent aptitude for further visualization enhancements, such as comparing and mapping out the difference between talents and companies.
3, Online Shopping Sites
Another way to improve your necessary data analytics skill set is to scrap product and cost data from online shopping sites. For example, you can collect data and information about the trending Bluetooth headsets on Flipkart. And the collected data is analyzed further for processing the information you need for the project. It is wiser to start experimenting and analyzing data that uses more straightforward algorithms first. And then, pave your way to getting comfortable with intricate data design.
4. Social Media Platforms
A beginner level data analyst is expected to scrape data from social media websites. For instance, you can collect data from unconventional sites like Reddit or Twitter. Searching for keywords, upvotes, user data, etc., is all possible in Reddit, giving you ample resources for further investigation.
The website has gained popularity over the past years for its straightforwardness and content creation. As a data analyst, you can compare and analyze popular keywords with upvoted content. You can also take it a step further with exploratory analysis to check for any correlation between them.
Exploratory Data Analysis Project Ideas
1. global suicide scale.
The next step in improving your data scientist skills is to carry out exploratory data analysis on the data structure, patterns, and characteristics. For example, analyze the datasets that cover the numbers of suicide cases happening in different countries.
Also, find information on almost everything you get your hands on, ranging from the year, gender, the age to population and GDP. After completing the data collection process, try to see if any patterns involve suicide rates. If you get better at analyzing data, you can evaluate the percentages based on the rise or fall in suicide rates.

2. UN World Happiness Report
Compared to the previous project, this assignment involves the World Happiness report. This particular report keeps track of six main factors that measure happiness around the world. The six factors are life expectancy, economy, social support, lack of corruption, freedom, and generosity. Multiple questions can pop into your mind based on the report, which is an excellent exercise to expand your data analyst skills.
The first step will be to collect and extract the data needed for your project. You can find the report to be well-organized and consistent, making it easier for analysis. The main focus here will be to observe the patterns and data structure used to design the world report. Probing for more information is the best way to perform a complete analysis.

In this article
What’s the Point of a Data Analysis Project?
Data analysis projects for beginners, intermediate data analysis projects, advanced data analysis projects, what skills should you focus on with your data analysis project, how to present and promote your data analytics projects, data analysis project faqs.
Data analytics projects showcase the analytics process, from finding data sources to cleaning and processing data. If you’re searching for your first data analysis job, projects allow you to gain experience using different data analytics tools and techniques. The best projects answer unexpected questions and explore relationships that aren’t immediately intuitive. In this post, we’ll tell you how to create data analytics projects that make you immediately hirable.
Doing data analysis projects is critical to landing a job, as they show hiring managers that you have the skills for the role. Professionals in this field must master a myriad of skills, from data cleaning and data visualization , as well as programming languages like SQL, R, and Python. A data analysis project can demonstrate your aptitude with all of these skills. Furthermore, personal projects are a great way to practice a variety of data analysis techniques , especially if you lack real-world experience.
Projects are an excellent way to gain experience with the end-to-end data analysis process, especially if you’re new to the field of data analysis. Here are some great project ideas for beginners:
Web Scraping
Web scraping is the extraction of data—such as images, user reviews, or product descriptions—from web pages. This information is first collected, then formatted. Web scraping can be done by writing custom scripts in Python, or by using an API or web scraping tool such as ParseHub. Here are two popular ways to practice web scraping:
Reddit is a popular repository for web scraping because of the sheer amount of data available— from qualitative data in posts and comments to user metadata and engagement with each post.
Subreddits on Twitter enable you to extract posts on specific topics. PRAW is a Python package you can use to access Reddit’s API to scrape the subreddits you’re interested in (a Reddit account is required to get an API key). You can then extract data from one or more subreddits at a time. If you’d rather not scrape your own data, you can find Reddit datasets on data.world .
Real Estate
If you’re interested in real estate, you can use Python to scrape data on real-estate properties , then create a dashboard to analyze the “best” properties based on data points like property taxes, population, schools, and public transportation. There are two main Python libraries for data scraping: Scrapy and BeautifulSoup. You can also use the Zillow API to obtain real estate and mortgage data.
Exploratory Data Analysis
Another great project for beginners is to do an exploratory data analysis (EDA), which is the probing of a dataset to summarize its main characteristics. EDA helps determine which statistical techniques are appropriate for a given dataset. Here are some projects where you can work on your EDA chops:
McDonald’s Nutrition Facts
McDonald’s food items are often controversial because of their high fat and sodium content. Using this dataset from Kaggle, you can perform a nutrition analysis of every menu item, including salads, beverages, and desserts. First, import the CSV file in Python. Then, categorize items according to factors like sugar and fiber content. Then you can model the results using bar and pie charts, scatter plots, and heatmaps. For this project, you’ll need the Numpy, Pandas, and Seaborn libraries.
World Happiness Report
The World Happiness Report surveys happiness levels around the globe. This project , from a student at Pennsylvania State University, uses SQLite, a popular database engine, to analyze the difference in happiness levels between the North and South hemispheres.
Global Suicide Rates
While there are countless datasets concerning suicide rates, this dataset created by Siddarth Sudhakar contains data from the United Nations Development Program, the World Bank, Kaggle, and the World Health Organization. Import the data into Python and use the Pandas library to explore the data. From there, you can summarize the data features. For example, you can uncover the relationship between suicide rates and GDP per capita.
Data Visualization

Visualizations communicate trends, outliers, and patterns in your data. So if you’re new to the field, and looking for a data analysis project, then creating visualizations is a great place to start. Select graphs that are ideal for the story you’re trying to tell. Bar charts and line charts succinctly illustrate changes over time, while pie charts model part-to-whole comparisons. Meanwhile, bar charts and histograms show the distribution of data. Here are some great data visualization projects for beginners:
Pollution in the United States
The Environmental Protection Agency releases annual data on air quality trends. This dataset from Kaggle features EPA pollution data from 2000–2016 in one CSV file. You can visualize this data using the Python Seaborn library or the OpenAir package in R. For example, you can model changes in emissions concentrations according to time, day of the week, or month. You can also use a heatmap to find the most polluted times of the year in a given area.
History Visualization
Data visualizations are a great way to illustrate historical events, such as the spread of the printing press or trends in coffee production and consumption . This visualization by Harvard Business School depicts the largest US companies in the year 1955. A second analysis in 2015 shows how much has changed. There is also an abundance of datasets available on World War II. This Kaggle dataset features data on weather conditions during the war, which had a major influence on the success of an invasion.
Astronomical Visualization
Modern telescopes and satellites produce digital images that are perfect for data visualization. This dataset from data.world shows future asteroids poised to pass near Earth within the next 12 months, as well as those that have made a close approach within the last 12 months. You can view live visualizations based on the dataset here to inspire your own analysis. You can also use this resource to find the asteroid orbital classes for each data point (eg: asteroid, apollo, centaur).
Instagram Visualization
This project on KDNuggets makes use of Jupyter notebooks and IPython to analyze Instagram data. Regular Python works fine, but you may not be able to display the images in your notebook. You can use Instagram data to compare the popularity of two political candidates, like this project , or perform a time series analysis on a public figure’s popularity before and after a major event.
Sentiment Analysis

Sentiment analysis (AKA “opinion mining”) entails using natural language processing (NLP) to determine how people feel about a product, public figure, or political party, for example. Each input is assigned a sentiment score, which classifies it as positive, negative, or neutral. You’ll definitely want to hone this skill to land a job in data analysis. Here are some great projects to add to your portfolio:
Twitter Sentiment Analysis
Social media posts can be classified according to polarity or emotion-specific keywords. The Apache NiFi GetTwitter processor obtains real-time tweets and ingests them into a messaging queue so you can obtain posts about a trending topic or hashtag. Alternatively, use Twitter’s Recent Search Endpoint . Once you’ve generated your dataset, you can determine sentiment scores using Microsoft Azure’s Text Analytics Cognitive Service , which identifies key phrases and entities such as people, places, and organizations.
Audience Reviews on Google
Google reviews are a great resource for customer feedback, and also make for a great data analysis project. The Google My Business API lets you extract reviews and work with location data. In this project on Medium, data enthusiast Nikita Bhole used Python to perform a sentiment analysis on user reviews from the Google Playstore. She then used Pandas profiling to perform an exploratory data analysis to find variables, interactions, correlations, and missing values. Next, she used TextBlob to calculate a sentiment score based on sentiment polarity and subjectivity.
Quora Question Pairing
Quora is one of the most popular question-and-answer websites in the world, making it ripe for data analysis. In a recent Kaggle challenge , users were tasked with using advanced NLP to classify duplicate question pairs. For example, the queries “What is the most populous state in the USA?” and “Which state in the United States has the most people?” should not exist separately on Quora. This dataset from Quora contains over 400,000 lines of potential question duplicate pairs. Each line contains IDs for each question in the pair, the full text for each question, and a binary value that indicates whether the line contains a duplicate pair. In this project conducted by a group of NYU students, a basic linear model known as an n-gram was used to build a set of features to be used in a natural language understanding (NLU) model. Then they used scikit’s Support Vector Machine (SVM) implementation module for their experiments with word embedding.
Data Cleaning

Data cleaning is the process of fixing or removing incorrect, corrupted, duplicate, or incomplete data within a dataset. Messy data leads to unreliable outcomes. Cleaning data is an essential part of data analysis, and demonstrating your data cleaning skills is key to landing a job. Here are some projects to test out your data cleaning skills:
Airbnb Open Data (New York)
Airbnb’s open API lets you extract data on Airbnb stays from the company’s website. Alternatively, you can use this existing Kaggle dataset for Airbnb stays in New York City in 2019. Both data files include all the information needed to find out more about hosts and geographical availability, both of which are necessary metrics to make predictions and draw conclusions.
YouTube Videos Statistics
The top trending videos on YouTube provide an itinerant window into the current cultural zeitgeist. This dataset from Kaggle contains several months of data on daily trending YouTube videos from different countries. This includes the video title, channel title, publish time, tags, views, likes and dislikes, description, and comment count. Once cleaned, you could use this data for:
- Sentiment analysis
- Categorizing YouTube videos based on their comments and statistics.
- Analyzing what factors affect how popular a YouTube video will be
- Statistical analysis over time
Educational Statistics
This project , from the book Data Science in Education Using R , analyzes this dataset compilation from the US Department of Education Website to uncover federal data on students with disabilities. You can prepare the data for analysis by cleaning the variable names. Then, you can explore the dataset by visualizing student demographics.

If you’re at the intermediate level and want to advance your data analysis career, you’ll want to improve your skills in data mining, data science, data collection, data cleaning, and data visualization. Here are some great projects to add to your portfolio:
Data Mining and Data Science
Data mining is the process of turning raw data into useful information. Here are some data mining projects that you can do to advance your career as a data analyst :
Speech Recognition
Speech recognition programs identify spoken words and convert them into text. To do this in Python, install a speech recognition package such as Apiai , SpeechRecognition , or Watson-developer-cloud . This project , which is called DeepSpeech, is an open-source speech-to-text engine using Google’s TensorFlow.
Anime Recommendation System
While streaming recommendation engines are useful, why not build a recommendation engine for a niche genre? This crowd-sourced dataset from Kaggle contains information on user preference data from 73,516 users on 12,294 anime shows. You can categorize similar shows based on reviews, characters, and synopses to build different recommendation algorithms.
A chatbot uses speech recognition to understand text inputs (chat messages) and generate responses. You can build a chatbot using the Natural Language Toolkit (NLTK) library in Python. Chatterbot is an open-source machine learning dialog engine on Github that lets anyone contribute dialog. Each time a user enters a statement, the library saves the text they entered. As Chatterbot receives more input, it learns to provide more varied responses with increasing accuracy.
Data Collection, Cleaning, and Visualization

Data collection is the process of gathering, measuring, and analyzing data from a variety of sources to answer questions, solve business problems, and investigate hypotheses. An effective data analysis project shows proficiency in all stages of the data analysis process, from identifying data sources to visualizing data. Here’s a project to advance your data collection, cleaning, and visualization skills:
Apple Watch Workout Analysis
The Apple Watch collects different types of workout data, including total calories burned, distance (for walking and running), average heart rate, and average pace. Using processed data, you can create visualizations such as rolling mean step count or step counts by days of the week, as seen in this project by full-stack engineer Mark Koester.

Ready for a more senior-level data analysis position? Here are some projects you can add to your portfolio:
Machine Learning
Machine learning enables computers to continuously make predictions based on the available data without being explicitly programmed to do so. These algorithms use historical data as input to predict new output values. Here are some common machine learning projects you can try out:
Fraud Detection
Machine learning uses models for fraud detection that continuously learn to detect new threats. This project for credit card fraud detection uses Amazon SageMaker to train supervised and unsupervised machine learning models, which are then deployed using Amazon SageMaker-managed endpoints.
Movie Recommendation System
Recommendation engines use data from user preferences and browsing history. To build a movie recommender, you can use this dataset from MovieLens, which contains 105,339 ratings applied to over 103,000 movies. Follow each step in more detail here.
Wine Quality Prediction
Wine classifiers make recommendations based on the chemical qualities of wine, such as density or acidity. This project on Kaggle uses the following three classifier models to predict the quality of wine:
- Random Forest Classifier
- Stochastic Gradient Descent Classifier
- Support Vector Classifier (SVC)
Pandas is also a useful library for this type of data analysis, while Numpy is good for working with arrays. Finally, you can use Seaborn and Matplotlib to visualize the data.
Netflix Personalization
To build a Netflix-inspired recommendation engine, create an algorithm that uses item-based collaborative filtering which establishes similarities between products based on user ratings. This project establishes filtering capabilities across IMDB ratings, metatags, actors, genre, language, year of release, and so on. To generate your own dataset, you can download publicly available subsets of IMDb data.
Natural Language Processing
Natural language processing (NLP) is a branch of AI that helps computers interpret and manipulate natural language in the form of text and audio. Try adding some of these NLP projects to your portfolio to land a more senior-level position:
News Translation
You can build a web application that translates news from one language to another using Python. In this project , data scientist Abubakar Abid used the Newspaper3k , a Python library that lets you scrape almost any news site. Then, he used the HuggingFaceTransformers , a state-of-the-art natural language model, to translate and summarize news articles from English to Arabic (you can choose another target language if desired). Finally, Abid deployed the Gradio library to build a web-based demo where he tried out the algorithm on different topics.
Autocomplete and Autocorrect
You can build a neural network in Python to autocomplete sentences and detect grammatical errors. This project on Github uses an LSTM model to autocomplete Python code to reduce the number of keystrokes required to write code. The model is trained after tokenizing Python code, which is more efficient than character-level prediction with byte-pair encoding.
Deep Learning

Deep learning is concerned with neural networks comprising three or more layers. These artificial neural networks are inspired by the structure and function of the human brain. Practice your deep learning skills with these projects:
Breast Cancer Classification
Breast cancer classification is a binary classification problem that works by categorizing biopsy photographs as benign or malignant. This project uses a convolutional neural network (CNN) to identify high-level features in the input images and implement matrix computations to infer a feature map.
Image Classification
Image classification models can be trained to recognize specific objects or features. You can build one using a CNN in Keras with Python. This project uses the CIFAR-10 dataset, a popular computer vision dataset consisting of 60,000 images with 10 different classes. The dataset is already available in the datasets module of Keras, so you can directly import it from keras.datasets.
Gender and Age Detection
An advanced Python project, this model uses OpenCV and a CNN with three convolutional layers to guess the gender and age of a person in an image using the Adience dataset.
Regardless of your level or skillset, data analysts can always improve on the following skills:
SQL is mainly used for storing and retrieving data from databases, writing queries, and modifying the schema (structure) of a database system. In your data analysis project, be sure to make use of some of the most important SQL commands, such as SELECT, DELETE, CREATE DATABASE, INSERT INTO, ALTER DATABASE, CREATE TABLE, and CREATE INDEX.
Programming
While data analysts don’t need to have advanced coding skills, the ability to program in R or Python lets you use more advanced data science techniques such as machine learning and natural language processing.
Data Cleaning Skills
Data cleaning is the process of preparing data for analysis by removing or modifying data that is incomplete, duplicated, incorrect, or improperly formatted. Fixing spelling and syntax errors, standardizing naming conventions, and correcting mistakes are key skills.
Visualization
As a data analyst, it’s important to communicate your findings with strong visuals that appeal to both technical and non-technical stakeholders. To visualize your data effectively, you need to know the specific use cases for each type of visual, from bar charts to histograms and more.
Microsoft Excel
Data analysts use Excel and other spreadsheet tools to sort, filter, and clean their data. Excel is also a useful tool for doing simple calculations (eg: SUMIF and AVERAGEIF) or combining data using VLOOKUP.

Bellabeat is a high-tech manufacturer of health-focused products. As a junior data analyst working with marketing analyst team at Bellabeat, I have been asked to focus on one of Bellabeat’s products and analyze smart device data to gain insight into how consumers are using their smart devices. I have performed analysis on data to give recommendations.
The data set is Fitbit Fitness Tracker Data taken from Kaggle which contains personal fitness trackers from thirty Fitbit users. It contains 18 CSV files
Business objectives
What are some trends in smart device usage?
How could these trends apply to Bellabeat customers?
How could these trends help influence Bellabeat’s marketing strategy?
Stakeholders
• Urška Sršen: Bellabeat’s co-founder and Chief Creative Officer
• Sando Mur: Mathematician and Bellabeat’s cofounder; a key member of Bellabeat’s executive team
• Bellabeat’s marketing analytics team: A team of data analysts responsible for collecting, analyzing, and reporting data that helps guide Bellabeat’s marketing strategy.

#Data Credibility
There is no demographic data about users, hence women data cannot be extracted. Overall, data is 6 years old and would not be helpful in a fast moving technology market.
Conclusions
• We can see higher weight people(above 120kg) are more sedentary. so we should target specifically below 65kg but between 90 and 120kg people are very or fairly active - seems like high weight people are trying to lose weight and exercise more than normal people but they have less (very active distance) which means they run/jog less and are using indoor activities to stay active such as gym
• less than 70kg as they are active but won’t be willing to pay a lot because they are not passionate, they have more active distance though meaning they run/walk more. however, between 90 and 120kg people are passionate and would be willing to spend more money
• People are most active in the start of month and middle of month while data only collected for April and May.
• Step total decreases with weight, above 100kg steps decline. People who take more calories have more steps there is a linear relationship, while active people sleep less than 400 minutes and people between 80 and 100kg take most calories.
• Bellabeat’s marketing team can encourage users by educating and equipping them with knowledge about fitness benefits, suggest different types of exercises, calories intake and burn rate information on Bellabeat’s application.
• Most people use fitbit to track steps and calories burned, people don’t use to track sleep much. I will suggest focusing on steps, calories more than sleep in application
• The relation between steps taken vs calories burned and very active minutes vs calories burned shows positive correlation. So, this can be a good marketing strategy.
• If users want to lose weight, it’s probably a good idea to control daily calorie consumption. Bellabeat’s can suggest some ideas for low-calorie lunch and dinner.
• The Bellabeat app can recommend reducing sedentary time.
In their final semester of the UW Data Science program, students are required to take DS 785 , the capstone course. Below are example capstone projects to give you an idea of the types of opportunities available to our students.

8 Awesome Data Science Capstone Projects from Praxis Business School
Introduction.
It is not the strongest or the most intelligent who will survive but those who can best manage change.
Evolution is the only way anything can survive in this universe. And when it comes to industry relevant education in a fast evolving domain like Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence – it is necessary to evolve or you will simply perish (over time).
I have personally experienced this first hand while building Analytics Vidhya. It still amazes me to see where we started and where we are today. During this period, there have been several ups and downs, several product launches, product re-launches and what not! But one thing has been a constant in our story – constant evolution!
So, when I got an invite to be a judge on the panel judging Capstone projects done by students of PGP in Data Science with ML & AI program at Praxis Business School, the same school where I had reviewed the program almost 4 years back – I was curious. I was curious to see and learn how their evolution had panned out.

My interaction with the students four years ago was quite different from my experience sitting in a panel of judges for Capstone projects. You get to see the final outcome coming from a rigorous program as opposed to just having a classroom interaction. This is like the proof of the pudding!
I was hoping to find out answers to 2 broad questions in the process:
- How has the program evolved over the years?
- What kind of projects are students currently doing and how industry relevant were they?
With those questions in mind – I boarded an early morning flight to Bengaluru and was in the Praxis campus by 9:00 a.m. Since the evaluations were supposed to start at 10:30 a.m., I had some time on my hand.
I used this time to catch up with the course faculty Gourab Nath , and other judges of our esteemed panel – Suresh Bommu (Advanced Analytics Practice Head at Wipro Limited) and Rudrani Ghosh (Director at American Express Merchant Recommender and Signal Processing team).
I also grabbed some authentic South Indian breakfast in the process. 🙂
Program Details and Capstone Projects
For people who are not aware – Praxis Business School offers a year-long program – PGP in Data Science with ML & AI at both its campuses – Kolkata and Bengaluru. The program is structured in a manner where the first 9 months are spent in the classroom with in-house and industry faculty and the last 3 months are spent as an intern with an industry partner.
The Capstone project happens before the internship actually starts. So, students spent a total of 9 months in the classroom and had been doing these projects for the last 3 months (month 6 – month 9 in the curriculum).
How has the Program Evolved over the Years?
The last time I had visited Praxis was in 2015 and I was dead sure that the program would have evolved. The question was how much? In which direction? What are the key takeaways for the students and how are the students from Praxis doing in the real world?
So, let me share my findings based on the interaction with Gourab and the rest of the panel.
How Much has the Program Evolved? In which Direction?
The first noticeable change was the name of the program itself. Back in 2015, the Program was called PGP in Business Analytics as most of the material in the course was related to Business Analytics and Statistical Modelling.
Over time, the program has evolved a lot – I was surprised to see the number of topics that are covered in the program. Here is a screenshot of topics covered in the curriculum, picked directly from their site:

The program has clearly evolved a lot. It not only includes Machine Learning and Deep Learning, but also Big Data Tools and Business-Focused topics. As far as I can see – the program has evolved a lot and has become a comprehensive course for data scientists.
What are the key takeaways for the students undergoing the program?
I think the best way to judge this is to look at the projects. So – I held this off and the projects were sufficient proof by themselves.
Needless to say, I was pretty excited by these discussions and with the context of this evolution – I was ready for what the rest of the day was supposed to be.
Here are the views of Gourab Nath, part of the judging panel and Assistant Professor of Praxis’ Data Science Program:
Collection of images is a challenging task for projects that involves topics like face recognition. Previously we were using an approach which was a little time-consuming. So, this time we decided to take a more systematic approach to collect the images that can massively same time of our participants. The teams working on such projects designed and developed an easy-to-handle application for facial image collection. A participant was requested to sit in front of the computer where we had the software running and all he/she needed to do was to enter his/her names and press a capture button to start the image collection process.
The students at Praxis Business School are highly encouraged not to be hugely dependent on the tools and the packages and focus more on writing algorithms. This approach helps them to code better no matter what programming languages they use.
Capstone Projects by Current Passing out batch at Praxis Business School

A glance at the list of projects confirmed my views until now. I could see projects on Machine Learning, Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Computer Vision (CV).
More importantly – it looked like these projects were not based on some open datasets. The problems mentioned were unique and I was not aware of many open datasets addressing these problems. Now, I was curious and excited to see what students have and how they have done.
Here’s the list of Capstone Projects done by students at Praxis Business School:
- Detection of Spam Reviews
- Opinion Mining on Mobile Phone Features
- Drowsiness Detection using Computer Vision
- Gesture Recognition using Computer Vision
- Team Selection using Computer Vision
- Attendance Tracking System using Computer Vision
- Recommender System for Fashion Apparel
- Nearest Document Search
Just to put things in perspective – most of the students presenting to us did not have any knowledge of predictive modeling and machine learning till July 2018 – when they started with the program.
Details of the Capstone Projects
Let’s look at each capstone project in a bit more detail to understand what it was about plus the tools and techniques used in each project.
Project 1 – Detection of Spam Reviews
Customer reviews have a huge influence on potential buyers of any product. A number of false reviews may drive the influence either in a positive direction or a negative direction. Any of these cases may make the customers take wrong decisions and the trustworthiness of the online opinions could be an issue.
In this project, we investigate opinion spam in reviews.
Note that this problem is different from email spam classification. Email spam usually refers to unsolicited commercial advertisements to attract people towards some products or services and hence they usually contain some prominent features.
Our specific problem is more challenging because untruthful opinion spam is much harder to deal with. These kinds of spamming material can be carefully crafted and made indistinguishable.
Techniques: Shingle Method, n-grams, Feature Extraction
Project 2 – Opinion Mining on Mobile Phone Features
You open amazon.com and find that lots of customers have given great reviews about a well-branded mobile phone you are interested in. You wonder – are these good reviews due to the camera of the phone? Or, how good is the battery of the phone? And what about the display?
While the number of reviews is really large and its almost impractical for the readers to go through all of them for evaluating the product, answers to these kinds of questions can be really helpful in making useful decisions.
In this project, our focus is to identify various features of a mobile phone that the customers are talking about in their reviews and mine the customers’ opinion on these features.
Further, we focus on identifying the polarity of these opinions and summarize the reviews. Finally, we develop a user-interface that summarizes the opinions about the features of the phone and rank the customer reviews based on its utility. We also propose an architecture that can perform the same on the reviews of any mobile phones.
Tools: Python [Packages: NLTK, SpaCy, sklearn], Wix.com (for the website creation)
Techniques : Fuzzy Matching, POS tagging, Association Rules Mining, Compactness Pruning, Redundancy Pruning, identifying sentiments based on the word list and weights in AFINN and WordNet
Check out a demonstration of this project below:
Project 3 – Drowsiness Detection using Computer Vision
How many times has this happened to you – you started a movie on your computer at night and fell asleep in the middle of it? And when you woke up the next day, you simply have no clue about how far you watched it? Happens to the best of us.
In this project, we focus on developing an application that will be able to detect if you are asleep and automatically pause the video for you. The system waits to see if you wake up in the next 30 minutes. In case you don’t, it will save a snapshot of the screen, close all the windows and shut down your computer automatically.
Tool: Python, Open CV, Tensorflow, Keras
Techniques: Viola-Jones algorithm on Rapid Object Detection using a Boosted Cascade of Simple Features, Inception V3, LSTM
Project 4 – Gesture Recognition using Computer Vision
Picture this – you are watching a video on your computer but are feeling way too lazy to use the mouse or the keyboard to control the video player. Sounds familiar?
We have a solution for you!
In this project, we focus on making the computer recognize some special gestures which will enable one to control a video player by just using those gestures.
For example, showing your palm in front of the system will enable the pause and the un-pause function. You will also be able to control the volume, fast forward a video or rewind it. You will also be able to do a wide range of other things like changing the slides of your PPT, changing pages, scrolling, etc. without grabbing your mouse or keyboard.
Techniques: Green Screen (for background subtraction), Single-Shot Multi-box Detector (SSD)
Project 5 – Team Selection using Computer Vision
Students are asked to create teams for their projects or their assignments, which is of course a very common thing in every school and college. The class representative (CR) creates a Google spreadsheet and shares it with everyone.
Students, after deciding who they want to team up with, populate the spreadsheet with the names of their team members. But the CR must remember the rules given by their Professor – the team size should be three and every team must have one female member at least.
So, the CR checks the restrictions and if everything is fine, he/she shares it with the Professor. This is one way to do it.
Or, you can do it the smart way.
You stand with your teams in front of the computer, the computer checks the restrictions, recognizes you, and fills in the database with your names and photos.
But remember, the computer won’t allow you to register if the constraints are not satisfied or when at least one of the members in your team is already registered as members of any other team. So, you cannot fool it!
Techniques: VGG-NET 19, HOG Detector
Project 6 – Attendance Tracking System using Computer Vision
In this project, we developed a system to record class attendance using computer vision.
After a faculty enters the system using a password and sets the period, the camera opens up to capture the picture of the class. The number of snapshots of the class is first passed through a face detector followed by a face recognizer.
After the system recognizes the students, it updates the attendance spreadsheet and saves the captured image in its respective image directory – labeling it by the date and time of the day. The unidentified students are marked as absent.
Techniques: Haar Cascade Classifier, HOG, Siamese Model (One Shot Learning), kNN
Project 7 – Recommender System for Fashion Apparel
The use of a recommender system in e-commerce companies is a highly targeted approach that can generate a high conversion rate. These systems help customers discover the products which they might be interested in and will likely purchase.
In this project, we have created a recommender system for a small fashion apparel industry that: Allows the customers to search by the image of a product Gives a personalized recommendation to the heavy buyers, and Displays the most frequently purchased item for the selected item
Tools: Python
Techniques: kNN, Collaborative Filtering, Content-Based Filtering, Autoencoders
Here’s a demo video of this project:
Project 8 – Nearest Document Search
In this project, we have created a nearest document search engine for News reading. The application will not just recommend you related news but also give you the sentiment and highlight important words associated with the news. If the news is big and you do not want to read the full news, fair enough, this app will have a summarized version ready for you.
Techniques: kNN, KDTree, Word Cloud, Lex Rank Summarizer
How relevant were these projects for the Industry?
One of the most critical questions I had was – are these projects industry relevant? Bridging the gap between academia and industry has been a significant challenge in data science. It turns out the answer is quite comprehensive.
In the last 4 years, the number of companies hiring has increased 4 times (from 15 in 2015 to 60 in 2018-19) and the average salary has doubled (5LPA in 2015 to 9LPA in 2018-19).
So, here are the thoughts of my fellow panelists on this topic:
“I am very impressed on the scope, objectives, and contents of the capstone projects executed by Praxis students. The majority of the projects are around the application of deep learning concepts which they have learned as a part of the course work. The entire project execution and development activities were well planned and organized. Starting from defining the problem statement, challenges, real-time application and finally presenting the results.” – Suresh Bommu, Advanced Analytics Practice Head at Wipro Limited
“What really stood out for me was the effort put in by students in attempting to create an end-to-end product with a UI as well as the variety of projects and its extended application.” – Rudrani Ghosh, Director at American Express Merchant Recommender and Signal Processing team
Key Takeaways from the day
I loved the day and would live it again without second thoughts. But there were a few things which stood out for me:
- There was a stark difference in the projects which students were doing currently. In a period of 9 months, they have completed learning the subject and have completed a Capstone project. This would not have been possible without the efforts of students themselves and the faculty members.
- Most of these projects exposed students to the perils of design thinking, creating and collecting the dataset and cleaning it. I just loved this aspect. I am sure the students realised that building a deep learning model is far easier than actually collecting the data for it.
- I also loved the way students presented their projects. They created video teasers and demo sessions to bring out the work they had done.
It was great to see the high level of projects presented by these students. As I mentioned, I was glad to see the students picking up challenging problems on not openly available datasets.
At the end of the day, I had to rush back to the airport. Day trips to Bengaluru are bad! And the fact that I had to rush through projects for a few students only made it worse. I would have loved to spend more than a day – the Energy of the class, the faculty and the judges was infectious 🙂 Looking at these projects – I can confidently say that Praxis Business School continues to offer one of the best full time program in Machine Learning and Deep Learning in India.

Capstone Project Frequently Asked Questions
1. Do I have to know what my capstone project will be when I apply?
We will begin discussing the capstone project in orientation, but you won’t have to submit an initial topic proposal until the end of the first semester.
2. Will my data be secure?
Your data never leaves you and is not stored on university servers. We recommend you anonymize, rescale, and sanitize your data. Your project coach can sign a non-disclosure agreement to further ensure confidentiality.
3. How large does my dataset have to be?
The answer really depends on your business problem/question. Our definition of big data is n=all. You will discuss data with your project coach to determine what variables are needed.
4. Will I be required to publish my project or present it?
Students typically do not publish their findings due to company confidentiality agreements. Peer presentations are made, but specific variables and findings do not have to be shared as we are interested in the process of modeling more than the specific outcomes.
5. Is the capstone project individual or group?
Our capstone project is an individual project specific to each student and his/her organization or interests. It is a unique feature of our program which is both time and resource intensive, but yields enormous return on investment.
6. What makes a good capstone project?
Think about what keeps your boss up at night? What is her/his (or your) bonus based on? Typically a project that is interesting to your employer makes a great project.
