- Evaluates machine learning (ML) algorithms’ performance at detecting anomalies – including hardware failures, sabotage, and cyber-attacks – against a testbed that simulates water distribution and storage. The system created for the experiment resembles many complex industrial SCADA systems. Interest in the work has been logged via (https://github.com/AbertayMachineLearningGroup/machine-learning-SIEM-water-infrastructure/network/members). Supported by the French Naval Academy, the work shows that ML can successfully classify anomalies with >95% accuracy, improving the quality of fault diagnostic information, and improving response times to critical infrastructure problem resolution.
