Organisationseinheit der BAM
Environmentally friendly alternatives to cement are created through the synthesis of numerous base materials. The variation of their proportions alone leads to millions of materials candidates. Identifying suitable materials is very laborious; traditional systematic research in the laboratory consumes a lot of time and effort.
Sequential learning (SL) potentially speeds up the materials research process despite limited but highly complex available information. SL does not make direct predictions of material properties but ranks possible experiments according to their utility. The most promising experiments are prioritized over dead-end experiments and experiments whose outcome is already known.
Our work has shown that SL seems to be promising for cement research. So far, research has mainly focused on materials whose synthesis is faster and whose material properties require less time for development or characterization (allowing many successive experiments). Contrarily, in the case of binders, SL is only useful if few experiments lead to the desired goal, as for example, the determination of the compressive strength alone typically requires 28 days.
In research practice, experimental designs and the availability of resources often determine which data can be used - for example, when some laboratory resources are not available or deemed irrelevant to a task. As a result, new research scenarios are constantly emerging, each of which requires to demonstrate SL’s performance.
We are presenting the SLAMD app to facilitate the exploration of SL methods in numerous research scenarios. The app provides flexible and low-threshold access to AI methods via intuitive and interactive user interfaces. We deliberately pursue a software-based research approach (as opposed to code-, or script-based). On the one hand, the results are more comprehensible since we refer to a common (code) basis (’reproducible science’). On the other hand, the methods are easily accessible to all which accelerates the knowledge transfer into laboratory practice.
Visualization of automated multi‐sensor NDT assessment of concrete structures (NDT Data Fusion)
(2017)
Nondestructive testing(NDT) of concrete buildings allows efficient repair measures. Multi-sensor platforms collect large data sets but the data analysis is typically performed manually. Data Fusion uses the full potential of a multi-sensory data set in order to:
- improve information quality (reliability, robustness, accuracy, clarity, completeness)
- enable automated algorithm based data analysis.
This poster summarizes results of the IGSTC-project entitled "NDT-Data Fusion" (short title) and demonstrates a significant improvement in the testing performance for the example of corrosion detection.
