1. A detection and response system comprising:
a central server including at least one continuously trained neural network;
at least one remote system connected to the central server, the at least one remote system including a first sensor configured to provide an analyzable output corresponding to sensed information to an instanced copy of the continuously trained neural network, and a response system configured to generate a response to the instanced copy of the continuously trained neural network providing a positive detection;
the at least one remote system including a network of sensor devices and the at least one remote system being configured to analyze data outputs from each of the sensor devices using the instanced copy of the continuously trained neural network, wherein the network of sensor devices includes at least one controlled component, and the generated response includes at least one control signal controlling a physical operation of the controlled component; and
a training module stored on the central server, the training module being configured to update one of the continuously trained neural network and the instanced copy of the continuously trained neural network in response to receiving a data set including the positive detection;
wherein the at least one controlled component includes a plurality of distinct controlled components, including at least two distinct types of controlled components, and including at least one of an actuator, a thermostat, a valve, and an alarm;
wherein the at least one control signal includes a distinct control signal corresponding to each of the controlled components in the plurality of controlled components, and the distinct control signals effect distinct physical actions; and
wherein the plurality of controller components includes a valve and wherein the physical operation of the controlled component is one of transitioning the valve from a closed state and transitioning the valve from an open state.
