Predicting river water quality

Guha Lab, The University of Chicago

At the University of Chicago's Guha Lab, I am investigating how water quality can be predicted using machine learning, spatial algorithms, and interpolation algorithms. For this, I am comparing 6 different models on 3 parameters in 3 rivers.

• 6models compared
• 3water parameters
• 3rivers

Methods

• Machine Learning
• Spatial Interpolation
• Model Evaluation

Guidance and output

Mentors

When

May 2026 to present

Output

Co-authoring a paper on optimising the distance used for interpolation in rivers of India. In progress.
