List of Projects

Project 1: Web-scraping the COVID data and create a simple flask app with forecasting.
Project 2: "Sentiment Analysis : An Analysis of Deep Learning Models":

In this project the idea is to implement 3 Sentiment Analysis models using LSTM, GRU and also CNN and compare accuracies.

Data source:

Project 3: Face detection for masks

We create a deep learning system using OpenCV and Keras/PyTorch/Tensorflow to determine if masks are worn or not.
