Avery Chen

Hi, my name is

Avery Chen.

I like

I'm a first year Master's student at Stanford University, studying CS with an AI specialization. Previously, I graduated from UC Berkeley with EECS Honors in three years, where I conducted research at the Berkeley Artificial Intelligence Research Lab improving machine translation for low-resource Asian languages through the MITRA Project and GUI Agent Automation in collaboration with Panasonic. I've worked as a software engineering intern at Google, Aurora, a self-driving truck company, and the Penn Wharton Budget Model. I'm passionate about increasing opportunities and accessibility for female-identifying engineers, and served as the Vice President of Corporate for Berkeley's Society of Women Engineers.

Survivor Machine Learning Winner Prediction

As a huge Survivor fan, I have always wondered whether it is possible to predict who will win! In this project, I utilized open-source Survivor data and a multivariate logistic regression model to predict which contestants would win Survivor.

Tools used pandas, R, Scikit-learn

Tools used HTML, CSS, JavaScript
