Project: CO2 Emission Prediction and Monitoring Dashboard
From BITIT FROM IITBX (Jan 2017 - Jun 2018) [cite: 299, 300]
Business Problem Statement
The challenge was to predict CO2 emissions from IITB Labs and monitor them through a dashboard, aiming to minimize emissions and reduce associated costs, requiring robust data collection and accurate model building. [cite: 304, 306]
Solution
- Collected data from SQL DB, performed data profiling, and merged data from multiple sources to gain insights into user behavior. [cite: 303]
- Built end-to-end machine learning and deep learning models to predict CO2 emissions from IITB Labs, encompassing all hardware systems and supercomputers.
- Ensured the accuracy and reliability of the models through meticulous data engineering, including defining requirements, data collection, labeling, inspection, cleaning, and augmentation. [cite: 305]
- Minimized CO2 emissions by 7% and reduced costs by 0.1% by suggesting changes in power plant settings at IITB-X. [cite: 306]
- Presented findings to the R&D team and Ph.D. scholars, sharing simulation and experiment results. [cite: 307, 308]
- Maintained active engagement in staying updated with the latest research papers, training machine learning models, defining evaluation metrics, and searching for optimal hyperparameters. [cite: 310]
