Problem Context
Car IQ, a fintech startup, specializes in streamlining cardless transactions at fuel stations for drivers associated with fleet management companies.
Car IQ’s primary objective is to delve into and decipher the behavioral patterns exhibited by drivers through vehicle-level data analysis. This initiative aimed to predict the likelihood of a vehicle engaging in a transaction and determine the anticipated timeframe for such transactions. Additionally, Car IQ sought to implement a recommendation logic capable of suggesting the nearest available fuel stations to vehicles expected to refuel.
Challenges
- Predicting the likelihood of vehicle transactions (refuelling), and motivating drivers to transact by providing them with concurrent recommendations
- Implementing a comprehensive end-to-end MLOps pipeline to automate functions such as ingestion, hyperparameter tuning, model training, and versioning
Technologies Used
Cloud BigQuery
Cloud IAM
Cloud Logging
Cloud Composer
Cloud Storage
Looker Studio
Google Source Repository
Vertex AI
Solution
- Quantiphi identified pivotal factors impacting transaction events by leveraging the client's data. Through meticulous data transformations and engineering, Quantiphi crafted a machine learning model using Vertex AI, predicting the probability of drivers refueling across various timeframes
- A recommendation model was developed by Quantiphi to propose the closest viable fuel station for vehicles anticipated to engage in a transaction
- A robust MLOps pipeline was swiftly developed by Quantiphi using Vertex AI, meeting accelerated timelines
- Additionally, insights into data and model performance, along with output visualization, were provided through Looker Studio
Results
- Quantiphi developed an ML model with integrated MLOps pipelines, achieving a F1 Score of 70-80% in predicting transaction events
