Machine Learning / Data Mining Application Part 1 (Back-end)
We are constantly thinking about how we can better serve our community. As a result, we have decided to make a matrimonial app for our community where we can help our community members find a perfect spouse for themselves. We would like to collaborate with students to apply the latest machine learning (ML) and data mining (DM) techniques. Students will develop an ML model related to any of the aforementioned applications. This will involve several different steps for the students, including: Conducting background research on our existing products and the dataset. Analyzing our current dataset. Researching the latest ML/ DM techniques and how they could be applied to our data. Developing an ML/DM model that provides unique outcomes or insights into our data. Providing multiple solutions that can be applied to solve the same problem.
Creating Graphic Design Assets
Our company has had the same design assets for several years, and although we have enjoyed this branding, we are looking to revamp and update our brand book. This may involve: Creating a new branding guide that is new, but still aligned with our existing branding including fonts, colors, logo usage and imagery to be used. Meeting with the project manager to evaluate the choices made for the branding book to ensure it is aligned with company branding goals, and making any necessary revisions. Designing and presenting thumbnails for design assets (banner ad, illustration, infographic, etc) based on the branding guide to be included in a proposal and presented to the project manager. Executing the full designs for each branding asset using Canva, based on the approved thumbnails. Creating multiple thumbnails with different color schemes based on the colors in the branding guide.
