Pioneering ABS AI Corrosion Detection™ Solution Highly Effective in Real World Application
Results from the initial application of the unique ABS Artificial Intelligence (AI) powered Corrosion Detection digital solution show it has identified corrosion with 98.9% accuracy.
The ABS AI Corrosion Detection™ tool continues to refine its fidelity as more images are analyzed to train the algorithm.
“Corrosion is one of the biggest maintenance challenges in the maritime industry with the total cost estimated at between $50 billion and $80 billion annually. This application of advanced machine learning technology to assist with tank coating and corrosion management is unique to ABS, and now we are able to demonstrate that it is highly effective in real world applications,” said Kash Mahmood, ABS Senior Vice President, Digital Solutions. “ABS is leading the industry with deployment of digital technology with practical tools that help shipowners drive efficiencies in their operations.”
