I am a Physics-major in the Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore and currently I am doing research work on astrophysics. I am also interested in Theoretical Computer science and Computational Data Analysis.
My services include data mining from the web, back-end development and data analysis.
Though I am new to the professional world, I have a long experience in web scrapping and web crawling using python. I have written some interesting programs in web scraping such as
1. A program to extract data about the top officers of a given company
2. A program that can count total number of hash-tags given by someone. (using twitter API oAUTH)
3. A program that can read simple CAPTHAs and bypass them.
As an astrophysics researcher, I learnt about different methods of data analysis such as monte carlo methods and markov chains. I can apply them to real world problems such as analysis of trends and financial modelling.
I also offer testing of websites via unit tests or selenium.
