Decoding methane concentration in Alberta oil sands: A machine learning exploration by Liubov Sysoeva, Ilhem Bouderbala, Miles H. Kent, Esha Saha, B.A. Zambrano-Luna, Russell Milne, Hao Wang

“…We additionally use Shapley values to find that O3’s relationship with methane concentration is consistently concave, while that of NOX changes from linear increase to a saturation function with increasing distance from OSTPs. This paper serves as a guide for building machine learning-driven models to estimate methane concentration in Alberta’s oil sands, or similar regions with methane-producing extractive industries.…”
