If you are a loss manager at a water utility, you know that identify non-visible leaks<\/strong> \u2013 those that have not yet reached the surface \u2013 is one of the biggest operational challenges. But now, technology makes it possible to do this proactive, automated and intelligent<\/strong>. That\u2019s exactly what Machine Learning is making possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is Machine Learning?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Machine learning is a branch of artificial intelligence that allows systems to learn to identify patterns in large volumes of data and make decisions based on them, without being explicitly programmed for each task. Over time, these algorithms become more accurate as they are exposed to new data, and are widely used in areas such as health, finance, transportation and, more recently, sanitation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning: what is the relationship?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a broader field of computer science that seeks to simulate human capabilities, such as reasoning, learning, and decision-making. Within this field, Machine Learning is an area that teaches systems to learn on their own from data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In other words, all Machine Learning technology is part of the AI universe. It is this set of technologies that allows sanitation companies to automate leak detection, predict failures and make more effective decisions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201c\u2026What once seemed like science fiction is now transforming the way we live, work and care for the planet. AI has evolved from basic algorithms to systems capable of learning, predicting and even creating \u2014 and in doing so, it has opened up new possibilities for solving historic challenges for humanity.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

This strategic look reinforces how the combination of innovation and purpose can address historic challenges \u2014 and shows why technologies like Machine Learning are so crucial to the sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
