Abstract

AbstractOnline monitoring of multivariate water quality data is becoming a practical means of improving distribution network management and meeting water security goals. Changes in water quality are often due to changes in the hydraulic operations of the network. These operational changes create patterns of water quality change that are similar, but not exactly the same, from one instance to the next. Classification of multivariate change patterns through trajectory clustering is introduced in this paper to create a pattern library from historical water quality data and as an online process with the goal of reducing false positive water quality event detections. Prior to event declaration, a short sequence of the preceding multivariate data is compared against the pattern library to assess its similarity to a previously observed pattern. A fuzzy clustering algorithm is utilized to assign multivariate pattern memberships for water quality patterns associated with water quality events in both the offline an...
