Outline of Annual Research Achievements |
This research aims at the automation of the hammering test for the inspection of concrete structures. Supervised learning approaches have the issue that when the concrete structure differs between training and deployment of the system, the performance is degraded (domain gap). This year, efforts have been shifted towards approaches based on Deep Learning for outlier detection, namely Autoencoder-type approaches, which have been gaining attention in the field. The potential of combining such methods with the weak supervision framework are being currently investigated.

Current Status of Research Progress |
Current Status of Research Progress
3: Progress in research has been slightly delayed.
Reason
Day-to-day operations were still greatly affected by restrictions related to COVID-19. Additionally, difficulties were encountered when attempting to purchase sensors due to the shortage of electronic components.
|
Strategy for Future Research Activity |
Several pipelines for audio processing which Autoencoders have been established this year. In the next fiscal year, it is planned to expand those to include weak supervision and start tackling the domain adaptation issue.
|
Causes of Carryover |
Delay in research activities due to the pandemic and personal reasons. Remaining budget planned to be used for speeding up efforts in the next fiscal year.
