79. Anomaly Detection

Not every environmental variation represents a problem.

However, identifying genuinely abnormal behaviour is essential for maintaining engineering reliability.

Artificial Intelligence may assist by recognising situations that differ significantly from expected behaviour.

Possible examples include:

  • unexpected sensor readings
  • irrigation system malfunctions
  • communication anomalies
  • hydraulic behaviour inconsistent with historical observations
  • sudden changes in environmental conditions

Early identification of anomalies enables timely investigation while reducing the risk of incorrect engineering conclusions.
