- Application to Monitor Social Networks (Other amazing things)http://sonar.monteagudo.com.ar/
I developed, on my own, an entire application to monitor social networks like Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter. It has statistics about any public account needed and also sends messages/alarms to the client through a telegram if something important is happening.
It has a back end in R to download information, process it, and calculate statistics and a PHP front end to show the data. I also used C to manage sessions, create, delete and modify searches, and more. - Stars Realigned: Improving the IMDb Rating System (Other amazing things)https://www.toptal.com/data-science/improving-imdb-rating-system
IMDb ratings have genre bias: Dramas tend to score higher, for example. Is there a way to remove such biases and discover what makes a movie unique?
In this article, I show you how to refine IMDb scores and create a better ranking system through data science and machine learning techniques. - Stars Realigned: Improving the IMDb Rating System (Publication)IMDb ratings have genre bias: For example, dramas tend to score higher. Removing common feature bias and keeping unique characteristics, it's possible to create a new, refined score based on IMDb information.
