Abstract

An artificial intelligence (AI) based system for detecting defects in infrastructure uses an image recognizer and image data. A set of annotated training and validation data is generated to train and validate the image recognizer. The image data is annotated with classification data such as defect type and severity of the defect. Once trained and validated, the image recognizer can analyze inspection images to identify detects therein and generate an output report including the identification and classification of the defect, and remediation recommendations.
