摘要

Imaging techniques have considerably improved corrosion-induced metal loss defect detection and severity estimation in recent decades. Even though the detection of defects using imaging techniques in steel is well established, determining the severity remains difficult due to the necessity of estimating the depth information of the defect from 2-dimensional image data. This study used a steel test specimen with artificial defects of varying depths and diameters, subjected to accelerated corrosion. A Multi-Spectral Imaging setup observed the specimen’s spectral response at different temperatures following a cooling excitation. Reflected intensities at specific wavelengths indicated defect presence and allowed quantification of corrosion-induced metal loss. Principal Component Analysis and machine learning regression were used to transform discrete defect depths into continuous assessments. Support Vector Regression, Decision Tree Regressor, Random Forest Regressor, Gradient Boosting Regressor, and a Feedforward Neural Network (FNN) were tested for this task. The FNN showed the best results in solving the regression problem with a least Root Mean Square Error of 0.2829 and an R2 score 0.976. The 700 nm–900 nm range was identified as the optimal wavelength span for spectral imaging.
