SRV Bacteria Predictor

An ensemble model with a Gini Coefficient of 70+ was developed to identify service reservoir assets at risk of ecoli failures to direct manual investigations. Water quality samples are regularly taken from each of the 300+ service reservoirs located across Wales. These samples are analysed and the data uploaded to a centralised database. A legacy model was historically used to identify assets but stakeholders felt its performance had degraded to the point of no longer being fit for purpose. This model redevelopment project included:

  • Extensive EDA.
  • Data drift analysis.
  • 10, 000: 1 class imbalance.
  • Low capacity for on-site investigation required minimal false positives.
  • Interactive Power-BI Dashboard.
  • SMOTE & TOMEK link resampling.
  • Supervised Discritisation.
  • Azure Virtual Machines & DevOps Pipelines.
Other Projects
  • CSO Monitoring
  • Risk Assessment Risk Index
  • Property Risk Profile
  • Model Monitoring Suite
