Viac o mne

I am a Data Analyst at the Institute for Environmental Policy in Bratislava, where I work with data to support evidence-based environmental decision-making.I hold a Master’s degree in Digital Economy from WU (Vienna University of Economics and Business), with specializations in Data Science & AI and Digital Network Analytics. I primarily work with Python and R, with additional experience in SQL, across data processing, statistical analysis, ML modeling, and network analysis.My thesis combined my interests in ML and sustainability, using Llama 3 to extract and structure information from ~300k wind-energy articles to build a structured database of suppliers’ component transactions, and Tableau and Neo4j to create network and descriptive visualizations.Previously, I worked as a Junior Data Analyst at MSD and held roles as a Teaching & Research Assistant and Support Tutor at WU.

Doplnkové aktivity a úspechy

Master’s Thesis: Applications of ML for Assessing Wind Energy Global Value Chains

· Collected ∼300K news articles on wind energy supply chains using the LexisNexis API. · Built a structured database of suppliers’ component transactions using Llama 3 and created network and descriptive visualizations in Tableau and Neo4j.

2025
Bias & Fairness: AIF360 and Fairlearn on Adult Income and COMPAS Datasets (2-person Project)

· Applied 3 ML models (Logistic Regression, Random Forest, and LightGBM) and computed fairness metrics such as Demographic Parity Ratio, Statistical Parity Difference, and Equalized Odds Difference using AIF360 and Fairlearn on both datasets. · Implemented 6 mitigation techniques (preprocessing, in-processing, postprocessing) and compared the performance of the frameworks on both datasets. · Fairlearn showed a slight advantage in metrics, along with superior usability and visualization features.

2024
Bachelor Thesis: Explaining Weather Data Visualizations Using SHAP

· Trained 4 predictive ML models (Linear Regression, Decision Tree, Random Forest, and LightGBM) on weather (temperature and air quality) data. · LightGBM was the best-performing model, explaining 82.8% of the variance, with a MAE of 2.463. · After feature selection, the LightGBM model improved slightly, explaining 83.3% of the variance with a lower MAE of 2.437. · Used SHAP to identify features like ozone levels, date, and SO₂ as the most influential in the predictions.

2022
Financial Fraud Detection: Pilot Project for Raiffeisen Bank (6-person Project)

· Processed over 23 million anonymized transactions to identify fraud in a highly imbalanced dataset. · Used ROSE to undersample the majority class and SMOTE to synthesize fraudulent cases, balancing the dataset. · Compared 4 machine learning models (Logistic Regression, Naïve Bayes, Random Forest, and XGBoost) using performance metrics (accuracy, recall, precision, and F1 score), along with the ROC curve. · XGBoost balanced recall and precision with faster training, ideal for scaling. Random Forest had higher recall (73.16%) but more false positives.

2022
Peer Company Identification: Pilot project for BDO (3-person Project)

· Conducted NLP (tokenization, lemmatization, stemming) on ∼600 company data entries (company filings and annual reports of publicly listed companies). · Implemented 3 search engines using various importance measures (TF-IDF, BM25, term frequency). · Retrieved market capitalization, beta value and company description with yfinance API to compare the companies. · Developed a web app that identifies similar companies based on keywords.
