Say Yes to Our AI/ML Capstone Track

🧠 1. Problem Statement – Real, Relevant, and Impactful You’ll choose a practical use case like:

  • Predicting student dropout risk
  • Recommending products or content
  • Detecting fake news or spam
  • Classifying customer feedback
🎯 We focus on problems companies care about.
🛠 2. Data Collection & Cleaning You’ll work with real-world datasets (CSV, APIs, or scrapers), and:
  • Handle missing values
  • Normalize and clean text/numbers
  • Perform EDA (Exploratory Data Analysis)
🎯 Good models start with clean, meaningful data.
📊 3. Model Building & Training You’ll build ML pipelines using:
  • Scikit-learn, Pandas, NumPy
  • Logistic Regression, Decision Trees, SVMs
  • Advanced models: Random Forest, XGBoost, or basic Neural Nets
🎯 Train, validate, and tune your model for real performance.
📈 4. Evaluation & Visualization You’ll learn to measure:
  • Accuracy, Precision, Recall, F1-score
  • Confusion matrix, ROC curves
  • Insights using Matplotlib, Seaborn
🎯 Not just building models—understanding them.
💻 5. Project Deployment (Optional but Powerful) Push your project online:
  • Use Flask or Streamlit
  • Host on Render, Hugging Face, or GitHub Pages
  • Add a simple UI to interact with your model
🎯 Now it’s portfolio-ready and recruiter-friendly.
✅ Final Output: A Complete, Polished ML Project You’ll graduate with:
  • Clean code + well-documented notebooks
  • A GitHub repo + demo link
  • A project that solves a real-world problem

🔚 Final Thought AI/ML careers don’t start with theory.
They start with proof of work—and that’s exactly what you’ll build in Meander’s Capstone Track. One project. One outcome. One real opportunity.
