Book excerpt: This manuscript presents the results of research about the use of the Artificial Intelligence moths to detect and localize leaks in the water distribution networks. The manuscript is organized in three chapters:The first chapter includes a literature review about the leak in the water distribution networks. First, it presents first the origin of the water leak and its dramatic economic, social and environmental impact. Then, it presents the conventional methods used for the detection of the water leak including hardware-based and software-based methods. This chapter highlights the opportunities offered by the smart monitoring and the Artificial Intelligence methods for the detection of leaks in the water networks. It also shows a need to explore on the same example the capacity of the main AI methods to detect and localize leaks in complex water networks.The second chapter presents the water network of the scientific campus of Lille University, which is used as a support for this research. It argues the selection of this campus by its representativity of a small town, the complexity of the water network and the availability of data about the water network asset and consumption. The chapter also presents the construction of a Lab pilot to investigate of the possibility to localize water leaks from the ratios of the water supply flow rates.The third chapter presents a synthesis of the use of Machine Learning methods in leak localization. It also presents the use of the software EPANET for the generation of data including the impact of 215 individual and double leaks on the variation of the water supply flow rates and the pressure in five zones of the campus. These data are then used to investigate the capacity of five Machine Learning methods to localize leaks in the water distribution system. The chapter suggests some recommendations for the use of ML methods in water leak localization.
