Scope
Role and problem
My role: Built reusable experimentation workflows across structured and unstructured data tasks.
Model selection becomes unreliable when data cleaning, feature engineering, validation, and error analysis are treated as disconnected notebook steps. The pipeline makes the experimental path explicit and repeatable.

Failure analysis
Uses confusion matrices, validation results, and qualitative error review.
Public scope: The public scope focuses on reusable experimental method rather than dataset-specific benchmark claims.
Contribution
- Built modular workflows for cleaning, exploratory analysis, feature engineering, training, and evaluation.
- Compared model behaviour with explicit baselines and validation methods.
- Used error analysis to distinguish headline metrics from actionable findings.
Lessons
- The experimental pipeline is part of the research result.
- Baseline comparisons prevent overclaiming.
- A confusion matrix is useful only when it changes what you do next.
Limitations
- The public release focuses on reusable experimental method rather than dataset-specific benchmark results.
- Any public benchmark requires dataset context and evaluation protocol.
- Error analysis remains central to model selection.
