Week 1 Day 1: Setup

 Today is the first day of my internship with LexisNexis.

For this internship, my main job is to improve the underlying causal inference algorithms which apply on real dataset, evaluate alternate algorithms, assess the issues encountered and develop new algorithms about causal inference. My initial task would be to view and understand the code of Because module, which is a causal inference package, and learn the implemented algorithms for causal inference.

But first of all, I need to setup everything and build environment for future work.

Today I mainly accomplished:

  1. Have a short meeting with Lorraine, set up my Email and Teams account.
  2. Finish RSG Phishing and Training Programs and CDA-RSG Cyber Defense Onboarding Curriculum.
  3. Have a kick off meeting with Roger, discuss my initial work. Roger also shared some test examples with me to have a better understand of the Because module.
  4. Install Because module, do some tests and experiments on Synth submodule.
