Biography
Merhaba! Ben Kemal Günay. Trento Üniversitesinde postdoc data science researcher olarak çalışmaktayım. Lisansüstü eğitimimi ve doktoramı İstanbul Üniversitesi’nde tamamladım. Uygulamalı sosyal medya araştırmacısıyım.
Kullanıcı deneyimi, kamuoyu madenciliği, söylem analizi, sosyal psikoloji ve yeni medya gibi konularda çalışmalar yapıyorum. Bir veri meraklısı olarak, toplumda bilginin ve davranışın nasıl yayıldığını anlamak için büyük ölçekli sosyal medya verilerini analiz etmekle geçiriyorum zamanımın çoğunu. Gerçek uzmanlığım ise sosyal medya analitiğinde; yani, sosyal ağlardaki insanlar arasındaki ilişkiler veya politikacılar ve seyircileri arasındaki karmaşık ağ yapılarını inceliyorum.

Association rule learning is a rule-based machine learning approach for finding significant connections between variables in large databases. It is designed to identify strong rules that have been identified in databases using various measures of interests tool that can help businesses and other organizations manage their interactions with customers.
Constructing social networks from unstructured text is an issue of great interest that receives little research. In my most recent blog article, I describe how I built a social network.
Lifetime value is a critical metric because it represents the maximum amount that customers may be expected to spend in order to acquire new ones. As a result, it’s crucial in determining the payback of marketing expenses used in marketing mix modeling.
In this notebook, We will discuss three types of recommender system; (1)Association rule learning (ARL), (2)content-based and (3)collaborative filtering approaches. In this notebook, we will explain how to build a recommender system with these three methods.
Building knowledge graphs from unstructured text is an issue of great interest that receives little research. In my most recent blog article, I describe how I built a knowledge network in Neo4j using the LangChain framework and OpenAI functions. Along with learning all the subtleties of employing LLMs to build a knowledge graph, you will also learn the necessary procedures to develop a production information extraction pipeline.
Customer Relationship Management (CRM) system is an information management and analysis tool that can help businesses and other organizations manage their interactions with customers.
Deep learning (also known as deep structured learning) is part of a broader family of machine learning methods based on artificial neural networks with representation learning. Learning can be supervised, semi-supervised or unsupervised
In this task, you are required to create an algorithm that takes as input a pdf file corresponding to a research publication and outputs a list of all geographical locations mentioned in the publication. For each geographical location, the algorithm will have to additionally identify the country that the location belongs to, and return a latitude- longitude pair corresponding to the centroid of the respective country.
A few problems associated with image data include complexity, inaccuracy, and inadequacy. This is why before building a computer vision model, it is essential that the data is preprocessed (cleaned and processed to the desired format) to achieve the desired results.
Republic Day (29 October 1923) Republic Day (Turkish Cumhuriyet Bayramı) is a public holiday in Turkey commemorating the proclamation of the Republic of Turkey, on 29 October 1923. The annual celebrations start at 1:00 pm on 28 October and continue for 35 hours.
Family of linear algebra algorithms for identifying the latent structure in data representAs we have previously shown, machine learning may be used in a variety of ways to automatically classify texts or documents.
Customer Relationship Management (CRM) system is an information management and analysis tool that can help businesses and other organizations manage their interactions with customers.
Family of linear algebra algorithms for identifying the latent structure in data represented as a non-negative matrix. NMF can be applied for topic modeling, where the input is term-document matrix, typically TF-IDF normalized. Input; Term-Document matrix, number of topics. Output; Two non-negative matrices of the original n words by k topics and those same k topics by the m original documents.Basically, we are going to use linear algebra for topic modeling.
How often do you use the RFM analysis in your marketing? The RFM analysis is a great tool for marketers to figure out which customers are most valuable and how they should be marketed to. It’s also a great way to find new prospects that might not have been found otherwise. Here we’ll explain into each of the four groups. Retention, Frequency, Monetary Value and Referral and explain what they mean and why you want them as customers!
Companies want their data science teams to speed up the process so they can deliver valuable business predictions faster. That’s where ML pipelines come in. By automating workflows with machine learning pipeline monitoring, ML pipelines bring you to operationalizing machine learning models sooner.
Social network analysis (SNA) is the process of investigating social structures through the use of networks and graph theory. It characterizes networked structures in terms of nodes (individual actors, people, or things within the network) and the ties, edges, or links (relationships or interactions) that connect them.
Spotifyr is an R wrapper for pulling track audio features and other information from Spotify’s Web API in bulk. You can easily analyze your listining records.
