Text Mining of Publications

In this project at the Aerospace Systems Design Laboratory under the supervision of Prof. Dimitri Mavris and Dr. Olivia Pinon Fischer, I employed sophisticated topic modeling and text mining techniques to dissect and categorize the lab’s extensive portfolio of academic publications. By meticulously processing and analyzing a vast dataset, I was able to identify and characterize the various research collectives and their thematic clusters within the lab. Leveraging advanced algorithms and machine learning tools, I extracted pivotal patterns and discerned trends that illuminated the lab’s research trajectory and thematic development. This analytical deep dive not only showcased my proficiency in data analysis with Python and R, but also emphasized my capabilities in data visualization and the intricate fields of text mining and topic modeling. Derived insights were presented to lab administration.
