Abstract

Assurance of the normal condition of components is necessary for safe continued operation. Manual visual inspection may be prone to large volume of inspection data, making the manual assessment laborious and lengthy. This project develops a decision-support tool based on deep learning to automatically detect crack features in the inspection footage of superheater tube plate upper radius region.
