Continuation of Data Mining I  

Projects

2017 Graduate Capstone

In 2015, The University of Cincinnati began to transition its Student Information System from a homegrown system to a system created by Oracle Peoplesoft called Campus Solutions and branded by UC as Catalyst. In order to perform reporting and analytics on this data, the data must be extracted from the source system, modeled and loaded into a data warehouse. The data can then be exported to perform analytics.  In this project, the process of extract, modeling, loading and analyzing will be covered. The goal will be to predict students’ GPA and retention for a particular college.

2014 Senior Project

The Sitter App is an Android application designed for those who utilize others to look after their children and pets. Currently, parents give paper notes to the sitter, which wasteful, may leave helpful information out, or be illegible. The Sitter App uses built-in mobile functionality to make information easier to access regarding the child or pet. Profiles are created for each child or pet by the parent and are temporarily sent to the sitter. Profiles can include rules, discipline, routine, interests, allergies, phone numbers and other information pertinent to the sitter. Updates can also be sent to the parent from the sitter in order to update parent on routine. The parent no longer has to worry that they may have left out information for the sitter and the sitter no longer has to call the parent for small issues or questions, creating a better experience for sitter, parent and child.
