5. Effective machine learning techniques for detecting inflow and infiltration water in wastewater channels
University essay from Högskolan Kristianstad/Fakulteten för naturvetenskapAbstract : In this degree thesis, the research team analyses different ways of monitoring water flow in wastewater channels finds an effective way of processing data using machine learning on collected data from a specific area and sets up a system for finding correlations between rain levels, water usages and wastewater flow to detect infiltrations and inflow water in wastewater channels. The study concludes that a sensor network is most suited for monitoring wastewater channels and that machine learning could be used to detect infiltration and inflow water using different types of data.
