Be sure to click this button over here to see the slide annotations >>> (Slide 1: Cover) There are a lot of rumblings about a potential bubble in the tech industry. Is there a bubble? The anxiety around this topic seems to grow as the months pass, and it couldn't be more polarizing. Whether it's eminent or happens over the next 10 years, we can say with relative certainty that there will be another downturn in our economy. Whether it's the tech sector that drives it, or is impacted as a result or it. Investment in the tech sector will never disappear, competition just becomes stiffer and the requirements change. What we can focus on is how to weather such an environment and to position your company for success. (Slide 2: Me) If my career were a race car, here are some stickers I would put on it. I currently manage the global operations team at FIHQ where we work with our 200+ directors in 100+ cities worldwide. I often Mentor for some of the semesters, and have managed my own as Director in Silicon Valley and San Francisco. I run a group called Pitch Coach, focused purely on perfecting people's pitching ability and improving their business as a byproduct. I'm also an advisor to Youth Business USA, and several other early stage companies. (Slide 3: Bubble or No Bubble?) There is a lot of anxiety in the tech world about a potential bubble. It’s become an extremely polarizing discussion where the thought-leaders in the industry feel the necessity to pick a side and defend it fervently. Very smart and seasoned people completely contradicting each other on a daily basis for the past year. It’s kind of like politics. So, the question still remains, are we in a bubble or not? (Slide 4: What is a bubble?) Well, to even attempt to answer that, we need to know what defines a “bubble.” Do you know? (Slide 5: Definition of a bubble) If you go to Google and search for the term, it will return a clear and succinct definition provided by Investopedia: a pronounced and unsustainable market rise attributed to increased speculation in technology stocks. A bubble is highlighted by rapid share price growth and high valuations based on standard metrics like price/earnings ratio or price/sales.

The Asian financial crisis was a period of financial crisis that gripped much of East Asia beginning in July 1997 and raised fears of a worldwide economic meltdown due to financial contagion. Financial contagion refers to “the spread of market disturbances -- mostly on the downside -- from one country to the other, a process observed through co-movements in exchange rates, stock prices, sovereign spreads, and capital flows." Financial contagion can be a potential risk for countries who are trying to integrate their financial system with international financial markets and institutions. It helps explain an economic crisis extending across neighboring countries, or even regions.

In this study, we attempted to study the network of Twitter users and the mentions between them. Starting with a very large and incorrectly structured dataset, we used the Unix terminal (sed) and regular expressions to efficiently perform filtering and various transformations to end up with a lighter dataset. Then, using Python, we completely transformed the dataset from a linear (line by line) to a tabular format (columns), in order to load the data in iGraph. Using iGraph, we created a weighted directed graph and performed various tasks to explore the network: - Identifying basic properties of the network, such as the Number of vertices, Number of edges, Diameter of the graph, Average in-degree and Average out-degree. - Visualising the 5-day evolution of these metrics and commenting on observed fluctuations. - Identifying the important nodes of the graph, based on In-degree, Out-degree and PageRank - Performing community detections on the mention graphs, by applying fast greedy clustering, infomap clustering, and louvain clustering on the undirected versions of the 5 mention graphs. - Visualising the different communities in the mention graph.

The scope of this project is to use the data concerning suicides in Greece and the EU, to study whether there is an increasing trend of suicides in Greece, or better whether the behaviour of Greece is different than the rest of Europe. The output should be a report with at least 10 visualisations to study the data and create an informed opinion about the topic in a concrete and convincing manner. The key findings of the project are: * Greece has lower suicides than the EU as a whole. * Countries in the Mediterranean have fewer suicides, while Nothern Europe has higher suicide rates. * Men are significantly more likely to commit suicide compared to women. * The over-representation of men is universal across all countries in the EU. * The likelihood of suicide increases with age. * While not true for the whole EU, in Greece the economic slowdown might relate to an increase in suicides.

In this study, we attempted to formulate a Multiple Linear Regression model, to predict US house prices. Steps involved: Perform descriptive analysis and visualisation for each variable to get an initial insight of what the data looks like. Conduct pairwise comparisons between the variables in the dataset to investigate if there are any associations implied by the dataset. Construct a model for the expected selling prices according to the remaining features. Check whether this linear model fits well to the data. Find the best model for predicting the selling prices and select the appropriate features using stepwise methods (used Forward, Backward and Stepwise procedures according to AIC or BIC to choose which variables appear to be more significant for predicting selling prices). Get the summary of our final model, interpret the coefficients. Comment on the significance of each coefficient and write down the mathematical formulation of the model. Consider whether the intercept should be excluded from our model. Check the assumptions of your final model. Are the assumptions satisfied? If not, what is the impact of the violation of the assumption not satisfied in terms of inference? What could someone do about it? Conduct LASSO as a variable selection technique and compare the variables that we end up having using LASSO to the variables that you ended up having using stepwise methods.

We have access to a data stream that’s generated from sensors placed in some checkpoints (toll stations and speed cameras). Each time a car passes by one checkpoint, an event is generated. All cars are equipped with tags that provide the vehicleTypeID and colorID of each car. Tag readers are capable of reading this information. In addition, a camera reads the license plate and completed the event’s data. We are asked to create an Azure Analytics solution for the tasks listed in the “QUERIES” section.

A car rental company wants to develop a relational database to monitor customers, rentals, fleet and locations. The company's fleet consists of cars of different types. A car is described via a unique code (VIN), a description, color, brand, model, and date of purchase. A car may belong to one (exactly one) vehicle category (compact, economy, convertible, etc.). Each category is described by a unique ID, a label and a detailed description. The company has several locations around the globe. Each location has a unique ID, an address (street, number, city, state, country) and one or more telephone numbers. The company should also store in this database its customers. A customer is described by a unique ID, SSN, Name (First, Last), email, mobile phone number and lives in a state and country. Customers rent a car, which they pickup from a location and return it another location (not necessarily the same.) A rental is described by a unique reservation number, it has an amount and contains the pickup date and the return date. Entity-Relationship Diagram (ERD) Use the Entity-Relationship Diagram (ERD) to model entities, relationships, attributes, cardinalities, and all necessary constraints. Use any tool you like to draw the ERD.

This study attempted to formulate a predictive model that identifies whether a customer is probable to switch telecommunications providers (Churn) or stay with the company. We started with a Logistic Regression classifier, and moved on to methods such as Decision Tree, Random Forest, XGBoost, Adaboost, SVM, KNN and Naive- Bayes. We concluded that the best predictive model we could find was XGBoost, which manages to identify correctly almost all the non-churners and the vast majority of the churners. Closely trailing was the Decision Tree model, which is more easily interpretable and applicable in real business problems. On the other hand, Cluster Analysis was a bit more challenging. The Hierarchical Clustering methods we used weren’t very effective. Using the Mahalanobis distance and the Gower distance, we managed to produce 2 clustering methods with Silhouette values equal to 0.2. Using the K-Means method, the results became a little bit better, especially using Principal Components and creating 4 clusters.

This study attempted to formulate a regression model that identifies the characteristics that influence whether a customer is probable to switch telecommunications providers (Churn). We started with a full model, performed variable selection using AIC and BIC through the stepwise method and moved on to other models, using LASSO, or a few simple (aggregate) transformation of certain predictor variables. We concluded that the best logistic regression model we could find was produced with an aggregate transformation of the variables that concern domestic charges for various times of the day (Day Charges, Evening Charges, Night Charges).
