Who am I?

My name is Noah Krever, and I am a junior at Columbia University studying Data Science and Math.

What do I do?

I arrived at Columbia interested in physics, but more recently, I have fallen in love with Data Science, Machine Learning, and AI. I hope to explore the endless applications of these fields in both academia and industry. For over a year, I have been working on a research project at the interface of Machine Learning and Astrophysics, and I hope to publish soon. I am also a Data Scientist intern at ROC Capital LLC, a real-estate lending firm in NYC. Outside of research and Data Science, I love studying Math and Computer Science, and in my spare time, I am learning Web Development and UI Design.

I enjoy:

  • Soccer
  • Volleyball
  • Chess
  • Rubik's Cubes
  • Movies and TV
  • Rocket League
  • Guitar
  • Traveling

Projects

Here are some of the projects from my research, or my own personal interests that I've finished or I'm working on. Check back here to see what I'm up to!

Is Quasar PG1302 A Binary Black Hole System?

Supermassive black hole system PG1302 appears periodic at optical wavelengths. I am leading an investigation into PG1302's periodicity by performing a likelihood analysis and comparing different noise/signal models. Does evidence for periodicity characteristic of a binary system increase or decrease with continued observations?

Define Every Word Twitter Bot

An eduational Twitter bot with a sense of humor. Automated to define every word in the English language, retrieve relevant images from the internet, and provide Twitter users with define-on-command functionality regardless of context, this bot is several hundred lines of Python code built on top of the Twitter, Google, and Merriam-Webster API's, and has been good practice working with API functionality. Plus, we've got 5000+ followers!
