Over a three-month period, contributed to the UniversumX/Universum repository by developing and refining a data preprocessing and feature extraction pipeline for accelerometer datasets. The work introduced sweeping sliding window augmentation and integrated feature extraction steps, enabling downstream analyses such as PCA and STFT. Leveraging Python and CSV, implemented both power iteration-based and efficient SVD-based PCA methods, including TruncatedSVD and RandomizedSVD, to support scalable dimensionality reduction. Addressed a critical bug to ensure feature extraction results were correctly propagated through the pipeline. The contributions improved preprocessing speed, data diversity, and reproducibility, demonstrating depth in data science, machine learning, and linear algebra.

Jan 1, 2025January 2025 – UniversumX/Universum: Implemented Efficient SVD-based feature extraction to accelerate preprocessing by adding support for TruncatedSVD and RandomizedSVD, and fixed a critical bug that prevented feature extraction results (pcs and evs) from being returned and propagated through the preprocessing pipeline. These changes enhance preprocessing speed on large datasets, ensure end-to-end feature availability for downstream models, and improve reliability and reproducibility of preprocessing workflows.

Nov 1, 2024Nov 2024 monthly summary for UniversumX/Universum. Key features delivered include the Sliding Window Data Augmentation and Feature Extraction Pipeline, which augments accelerometer data with sweeping/overlapping windows and adds a dedicated feature_extract step integrated into the preprocessing pipeline to prepare data for downstream analyses (PCA and STFT). PCA-based feature extraction groundwork has been laid with planning and initial implementation for eigenvectors/eigenvalues preparation. Major bugs fixed: none reported this month. Overall impact: increased data diversity for model training, improved readiness and reproducibility of preprocessing for downstream analytics, and a clearer data lineage for feature extraction. Technologies/skills demonstrated: data preprocessing architecture, sliding window techniques, feature extraction design, PCA scaffolding, and integration with existing preprocessing pipelines.
