Benedict JEAN KASSA

My Master's thesis at Nanjing University of Posts and Telecommunications was a rainfall forecasting platform for next-hour predictions from historical meteorological data. I developed and evaluated forecasting models, including LSTM and XGBoost.

I retrieved data through the Open-Meteo API and worked on preprocessing and feature engineering. The project also included a multitask framework for predicting rainfall occurrence and conditional intensity.

I built an interactive Streamlit interface for data exploration, model comparison, and rainfall prediction. My project work used Python, Pandas, NumPy, and Scikit-learn.

As an IT Intern at Nanjing International School, I provided technical support and developed Power Apps and Power BI dashboards. At Artificial Intelligence Drones, I worked with Ubuntu and ROS2 on autonomous driving robot packages and tested robot models and algorithms using Gazebo.
