Making Big Data Risk Analysis
work for the GB Railways

GB railway
• More than 15,000 km of track
• More than 1.5 billion passenger journeys per year
• Passenger numbers have doubled in the past 20 years
• Currently holding a good record for safety
Safety Risk Model
• Fault-tree-based model underpins railways’ SMSs.
• Allows queries only within the structure of the model.
• We often don’t have data for failures that have not occurred.
• Keeping the model up-to-date is laborious: it can take one to two years to reissue the model.
Undesired outcome
Real-time data is what we expect the future will be
It’s easy to imagine an alternative...
With modern technology it is easy to envisage: – automatic collection of real-time data; – data from many sources: traditional sensors, video,
mobile phones, text-based reports, ...
How to do this in practice?
Combining many sources of data has problems, for example how to:
– combine conflicting data? – use data that goes out-of-date? – capture usable data from audio, video, text? – include new data sources as they become available? – deal with interruptions in data feeds? – abstract raw data into railway risk assessment knowledge? – avoid spurious correlations? – obtain knowledge from a blend of numeric and
non-numeric data? – ...?

Does the industry want it?
• Potters Bar, North London, 10 May 2002 • Seven people died following a derailment of a passenger train • The derailment was caused by degraded points • In the preceding days, drivers had reported abnormal track conditions
• With hindsight we can see that information necessary to address the problem had been available before the accident
• When the world is full of data, how can we get the safety information we really need?
