<h1>1. About Me</h1>
</div>
<p class="lead">I am a graduate student in the <a href="https://www.buffalo.edu/icds"
target="_blank">Institute for Computational and Data Sciences (ICDS)</a> at the <a
href="https://www.buffalo.edu/" target="_blank">State University of New York (SUNY) at
Buffalo</a> currently pursuing MS in Engineering Sciences (Data Science). Apart from that I
am a full stack developer proficient in fundamental front-end and server-side languages with
knowledge of NodeJS with Express, MySQL and Angular.
</p>
<p>Computers had caught hold of me since my teenage days, and I developed a passion for them and
went on to study computer science and software development. I try to build products through
projects which might influence the human life in an efficient manner. To look at my projects
till now, go through my <a href="https://github.com/luciferreeves" target="_blank">GitHub
profile</a>. Although, I do not always create perfect or useful things and few projects are
just for fun, I am trying to do better! Well, there is certainly yet more to learn, yet more
problems to solve and yet more to build in the not too distant future!</p>
<p>Although I am a person related with computer science, I equally enjoy concepts of physics, and if
I didn’t have gone for this field, I might have ended being a physicist. Good thing, I didn't!

<h3>A Comprehensive Approach to Analysis and Detection of Emerging Threats due to Network Intrusion.</h3>
<ul class="simpleList">
<li>CURRENTLY IN PROGRESS</li>
<li>This project aims to build a predictive model to fit the data and evaluate performance of the network intrusion detection mechanisms based on the ML methods. This also aims to provide the new researchers with the updated knowledge, recent trends, and progress of the field – which is very imperative in this era.</li>
</ul>
</div>

<h3>Predicting Mortality Rate based on the Comprehensive Features of ICU Patients</h3>
<ul class="simpleList">
<li>Performed an exploratory data analysis (EDA) using R while utilizing a SQL based
dataset to obtain the aggregated features and pre- process data. Built Random Forest
and Naïve Bayes Machine Learning models on the extracted data.</li>
<li>Wrote an IEEE style paper for the outcomes of the project and it was selected in the
3 best projects for the course. The university will provide necessary help to
improve and publish the papers in the coming weeks.</li>
</ul>

<h3>Analyzing Earth Surface Temperature using Previous Climate Change Patterns</h3>
<ul class="simpleList">
<li>Built a time series machine learning model to predict the 7-day temperature forecast for any provided city. The dataset used is the Berkeley Earth Surface Temperature Study dataset. Temperatures from 1950 to 2015 have been considered.</li>
<li>Everything has been packaged into a Flask based web interface where the machine learning model is built on-the-fly and then the temperatures are visualized using line graphs and heatmaps on the map of a city.</li>
</ul>
</div>

<h3>Sentiment Analysis of Topic-Wise Tweets using Kafka, Tweepy and PySpark</h3>
<ul class="simpleList">
<li>Sentiment analysis of tweets for a particular targeted topic. The project using Tweepy Streaming, Kafka Producer and Consumer to read relevant tweets. It produces a live matplotlib bar chart with “Positive”, “Negative” and “Neutral” variables. The sentiment of each tweet is also stored in a Cassandra database.</li>
<li>Future goals for the project include integrating PySpark with the project and support for multiple Kafka Producers and Consumers with multi-topic streaming.</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
<div class="thumbnail">
<div class="caption">
<h3>BackSlash Linux</h3>
<ul class="simpleList">
<li>Built a Linux based distribution (based on Ubuntu) which runs on 64-bit CPU architectures (AMD64 and Intel x64), and uses Hardware Enabled monolithic kernel.</li>
<li>Features a full GUI Interface based off KDE with some extra customizations on top of it, called “BackSlash Shell”.</li>
<li>Provides additional software support on top of the default Ubuntu experience like fingerprint authentication, multi-finger gesture support on trackpad, and Wine windows program compatibility layer (Nowadays, Linux distributions often come with such features out-of-the-box and Valve’s Proton Layer provides better gaming support for Windows games rather than Wine, but considering this distribution was released in 2017, most Linux distributions did not include such features. BackSlash Linux was also the first distribution to include fingerprint authentication out-of-the-box at the time).</li>
