Who am I?

I am a big fan of R programming at first. Deploying my models within shiny web applications is a moment of euphoria and excitement.

My job is about solving industrial problems with math and data. I have a knack for mathematical modeling and data analysis. I know how make use of information systems, operational research, stochastic optimization, reinforcement learning and applied machine learning to solve real-world challenges. I like to read scientific papers and replicate results that can help industries improve their performances. I am still learning and I aim to build an experience that connects and leverages my knowledge areas and to increase my ability to tackle industrial problems.

MILP modeling to schedule modular houses projects for MECART

Development of a project scheduling model under uncertainties and constraints of 4.0 industry.
Developed a linear program minimizing delays and completion times.
The model includes preemptive tasks of multi-projects, overlapping tasks, and limitation of number of preemptions per task.
Implementation of model on cplex and testing of different formulations to interprete relaxation and objective functions impact on the model behavior.

Automated ANOVA analysis

This application automates the analysis of the effect and interaction between defined factors on the qualities of olive oil through statistical tests and ANOVA. Trial data is available here

Launch Application

Double/Triple Q-learning algorithms implementation on different Reinforcement learning environments.

This paper is a reproduction and analysis report for double Q-learning algorithm in which we consider implementing Q-learning algorithm variants on different reinforcement learning environment to challenge its performance and conclude about our contribution. This paper and the work behind were elaborated in collaboration with Ghofrane KHEDHIRI and Joshua AMELIA during the class of INF8953DE
