Internship
Alluvium IOT Solutions Pvt Ltd | Ahemadabad, India Apr’20 - May’20
Data Science Intern | Supervisor: Mrs. Mitali Patel, Senior Data Scientist
• Objective:
– To study and analyse impact of assigned parameters on health, safety, productivity, efficiency and output of workers
– To perform predictive, descriptive and prescriptive analysis on data received from IOT device
• Achievements:
– WBGT predictive model: Created a model using surrounding temperature and pressure data by utilising Google Colab
platform to determine health risk of warehouse workers
– Light Scoring model: Developed a model utilising light(measured data from IOT device) and type of work assigned to
workers. Scores show inverse proportionality with productivity and accidental risk
– Noise Level Categorization model: Built a categorization model on the basis of noise data to ensure the safety of work
environment and recommended prescriptions using results obtained
– Implemented Linear regression, K-means Clustering Algorithm, Naive Bayes Classifier Algorithm, Apriori Algorithm,
Decision Tree, Random Forest, Nearest Neighbours for calculation of output
