Data Analysis Case Study: Public Health Agency of Canada

Data Analysis Case Study: Public Health Agency of Canada

During the Fall semester of 2018 Brains Adventure Inc. started working on a collaborative project with Prof. Stoyan Tanev at Sprott School of Business – Carleton University. Five students were formed as a team to work on the data analysis case we had at hand.

As part of the project we will be using advanced data analysis techniques on a repository of health articles publicly available through public health agency of Canada. The agency has a huge deposit of health related articles published over the years accessible to the general public for free.

The goal of the project is to first organize the deposit of articles into a nicely put list of articles, then figure out irrelevant ones (for example epidemics from the past already stopped) and finally be able to classify them in set of topics. This way it would be much easier for an end user to get the information they need regarding a topic of interest.

The project will started in Oct. 10, 2018 and the end result will be published on Dec. 20, 2018.
