The patent US12039501B2 outlines a method and system for assessing damage to structures using advanced machine learning techniques. The process begins with training two machine learning modules: the first identifies external parts of structures from video frames, while the second detects and classifies damaged regions. The method involves analyzing video footage to determine damaged areas and their severity, removing frames that depict specific damage levels, and classifying remaining damage types. Additionally, the system incorporates audio content from the video, converting it to text and synchronizing it with the video frames to validate the damage classification results. This comprehensive approach aims to provide a vision-based damage estimate for each external part of the structure.

Further enhancements to the method include pixel-level segmentation for precise identification of damage, down-sampling video frames to focus on relevant content, and aggregating damage estimates from multiple subsets of frames to improve accuracy. The system can also generate audio-based damage estimates by identifying keywords from the synchronized text and consolidating these with vision-based estimates. Moreover, it is capable of producing cost estimates for repairs or replacements of damaged parts. The patent emphasizes the use of machine learning to classify various damage types, such as scratches and dents, thereby streamlining the damage assessment process and potentially improving maintenance and repair strategies for structures.
