The task was to detect gas leak risk in a setting dominated by imbalance, sparse events, and operational uncertainty.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The pipeline combines geospatial-temporal feature engineering with synthetic data augmentation through &lt;strong&gt;CTGAN&lt;/strong&gt; and &lt;strong&gt;TimeGAN&lt;/strong&gt;, then uses &lt;strong&gt;SHAP&lt;/strong&gt; to keep the final model interpretable rather than purely predictive.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;What I still like about this project is its balance between pragmatism and method: it is a hackathon project, but it already reflects an approach I use often, namely trying to make difficult prediction problems more robust without giving up explainability.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
