Abstract
A method and system are provided for assessing damage to a structure. According to one embodiment, the method includes using a classifier that is trained to associate respective portions of in an image of a structure with respective external parts of the structure to detect several of external parts of a structure in a first image of the structure. The method also includes using a first machine learning system, trained to perform segmentation of an image, to identify one or more image segments in a second image, where each image segment represents damage of a particular type and, using a second machine learning system, trained to associate image segments with external parts identified in an image, to associate a first image segment with a first external part, indicating damage to the first external part.
