A review of the current state and experience of the practical application of artificial neural networks in ultrasonic non-destructive testing is presented. Separately, the features of the use of neural networks for the classification of defects according to data obtained by echo-pulse methods and the TOFD are considered. Information is given on the efficiency of defect classification using neural networks for various ultrasonic testing tasks.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
