losses. This work proposes a novel method that not only detects the occurrence of a leakage
fault, but also suggests its location and severity. The OLGA software is employed to provide
the pipeline inlet pressure and outlet flow rates as the training data for the Fault Detection
and Isolation (FDI) system. The FDI system is comprised of a Multi-Layer Perceptron Neural
Network (MLPNN) classifier with various feature extraction methods including the statistical …
