Abstract: Water supply issues are made worse by leakage in the water distribution network (WDN). Because there is a higher chance of contamination from leaky openings, leakage lowers the quality of water. It also results in pressure drops and power losses. These drawbacks are worse in undeveloped nations because of the substandard design quality and advanced age of distribution systems. Identification of the WDN leak is crucial due to the limited supply of water resources. In this research work, a graph theory and artificial network-based leak detection method are proposed to address the problem of leakage in WDNs. The proposed method is designed to detect leaks in WDNs with high accuracy. The technique uses graph theory to split the WDN into two sections, and then pressure loggers and the optimised long short-term memory (O-LSTM) algorithm are used for determining which section leaks.
