【 摘 要 】

With the advent of the 4th Industrial Revolution, advanced measurement infrastructure and utilization technologies are being noticeably introduced into the water supply system to store and utilize measurement data. From this perspective, the leak detection technology in water supply networks is becoming increasingly vital to sustainable water resource management and the clean water supply worldwide. In particular, leakage detection of buried pipelines is rated as a very challenging research topic given the current level of technology. However, leakage in buried underground pipelines is rated as a very challenging research topic given the current level of technology. Therefore, a data-driven leak detection model was developed through this study using deep learning technology based on inflow meter data. Multiple threshold-based models were applied to reduce the RNN-LSTM (Recurrent Neural Networks–Long Short-Term Memory models) deep learning and false prediction range, which is programmed in conjunction with the Python language and Google Colaboratory (a big data analysis tool). The developed model consists of flow pattern shape extraction, RNN-LSTM-based flow prediction, and threshold setting modules. The developed model was applied to the actual leakage accident data, followed by the performance evaluation. As a result, the leak was recognized at most points immediately after the accident. The performance of leak detection was evaluated by a Confusion matrix and showed more than 90% accuracy at all points except singularities. Therefore, the developed model can be used as a critical software technology to proactively identify various at present with smart water infrastructure being introduced. In addition, this model is highly scalable as it can consider various operational situations based on the expert system, and it can also efficiently reflect the results of pipe network analysis across different scenarios.
