Abstract
Spectral information from humic like-fluorescence, in addition to the spectra of tryptophan-like fluorescence, improve the Receiver Operating Characteristic for detection of fecal contamination in water. To demonstrate this, we apply the random forest algorithm to enhance specificity for detection of 1 CFU/100 ml of fecal coliforms by ~21%.
