Abstract

- Implementation of computer vision based on the YOLO (You Only Look Once) algorithm for segmentation and classification of images from a camera installed in the robotic cell, a task to be developed jointly with researchers involved in the project;- Implementation of artificial neural networks based on backpropagation for classification of the process state using signals from sensors installed in the sealing cell, a task to be developed jointly with researchers involved in the project;- Organization and development of a cloud-based database for storing process signals and images captured during testing;- Development of a graphical user interface (GUI) to facilitate access to the database and the algorithms implemented during the research project;- Documentation of all code implemented in the project and organization of documentation for software repository and registration;- Multidisciplinary collaboration with researchers and other scholarship holders involved in the project.
