FDA record reconciliation

My decision

I used rules for clear records and routed ambiguity to model-assisted human review.

03 / A personal perspective

Fieldwork changed the submission workflow.

I grew up on a farm in a village in Kazakhstan. Later, fieldwork showed me how internet access, digital literacy and local capacity changed the same workflow. At CSI, that meant piloting the submission process before scaling it.

04 / Independent builds

Independent modeling projects.

Inspectable modeling projects, with offline results and honest validation boundaries.

Risk / ExplainabilityIndependent prototype · Offline evaluation

Nonprofit financial shock simulator

A prototype for financial reviewers to screen distress risk, inspect drivers and explore revenue/cost shocks.

Model choice & evaluation

Logistic regression retained for explainability over boosted challengers. The public repository reports 540,860 filing-year rows, a 145,852-row core Form 990 modeling panel, and 0.810 ROC-AUC on the 2022 holdout. These are proxy labels and offline evaluation, with no deployed user-impact claim.

Scouting / SimilarityIndependent working model

Football scouting & similarity

A working similarity model for scouting analysts to compare playing styles and explore replacement candidates.

Model choice & evaluation

The linked repository includes position-based normalization, PCA and cosine KNN, with scree and silhouette/elbow plots for structural validation. Market-value and future-upside models remain roadmap items in this version. The similarity model has not been validated through a club deployment or scouting outcome.
