Bayes

Identification of stormwater control strategies and their associated uncertainties using Bayesian Optimization


Abhiram Mullapudi, Branko Kerkez

In preparation, 2023

poster/ paper


Bayesian optimization is a automated data-driven approach for identifying a control strategy that achieves the desired response from the stormwater network.

pystorms

pystorms : Simulation sandbox for the evaluation and design of stormwater control algorithms


Sara P. Rimer, Abhiram Mullapudi, Sara C. Troutman, Gregory Ewing, Jeffrey M. Sadler, Bryant E. McDonnell, Ruben Kertesz, Jonathan L. Goodall, Jon M. Hathaway, Branko Kerkez

Matt D. Bartos, Abhiram Mullapudi, Sara C. Troutman

Journal of Open Source Software, 2019

code / paper


Anomalies in the streaming data can be detected by estimating the shift in the structure of the random forest caused by the addition of a new data point.

deeprl

Shaping streamflow using a real-time stormwater control network


Abhiram Mullapudi, Matt D. Bartos, Brandon P. Wong, Branko Kerkez

Sensors, 2018

paper


Response of a stormwater network can be precisely shaped with the data from a wireless sensor network.
