👉 Python Face Recognition Project

Project Summary: This is a fun intermediate python project. This Face Recognition project detects faces and places a box around it and identifies the face based on those in a given list. It works by analyzing a photo and comparing it to the faces in the list to determine if it’s a match or if it’s an unknown identity. A few python modules are required to download in order to complete this project and have it run properly.

👉 Amazon Price Tracker Project

Summary of this Project: This python project tracks the price of an item on Amazon and emails you when the item has had a reduction in price. It does this by scraping the product information from the web page for the price of the item and compares it to whatever price you choose (The price you’re willing to buy the item for).

👉 Detecting Fake News with Python

Summary of this Project: In this Project, You will train a dataset of shape 7796×4 on news.csv. You’ll mainly use two things- a TfidfVectorizer and a Passive Aggressive Classifier. A TfidfVectorizer turns a collection of raw documents into a matrix of TF-IDF features. And a Passive Aggressive Classifier is an online learning algorithm that stays passive for a correct classification and becomes aggressive when there’s a miscalculation.
