Abstract Distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) technology is a fiber-optic based distributed sensing technology. It achieves real-time monitoring of acoustic signals by detecting weak disturbances along the fiber. It has advantages such as long measurement distance, high spatial resolution and large dynamic range. Artificial intelligence (AI) has great application potential in DAS technology, including data augmentation, preprocessing and classification and recognition of acoustic events. By introducing AI algorithms, DAS system can process massive data more automatically and intelligently. Through data analysis and prediction, AI-enabled DAS technology has wide applications in fields such as transportation, energy and security due to its accuracy of monitoring data and reliability of intelligent decision-making. In the future, the continuous advancement of AI technology will bring greater breakthroughs and innovations for the engineering application of DAS technology, play a more important role in various fields, and promote the innovation and development of the industry.
