Abstract

We have introduced a new method to integrate spatial (digital video) and time (radiation monitoring) information. This technology is based on pattern recognition by neural networks, provides significant capability to analyze complex data, and has the ability to learn and adapt to changing situations. This technique could significantly reduce the frequency of inspection visits to key facilities without a loss of safeguards effectiveness.

Integration of video and radiation analysis data

Technical Report Menlove, H; Howell, J; Rodriguez, C; ...

For the past several years, the integration of containment and surveillance (C/S) with nondestructive assay (NDA) sensors for monitoring the movement of nuclear material has focused on the hardware and communications protocols in the transmission network. Little progress has been made in methods to utilize the combined C/S and NDA data for safeguards and to reduce the inspector time spent in nuclear facilities. One of the fundamental problems in the integration of the combined data is that the two methods operate in different dimensions. The C/S video data is spatial in nature; whereas, the NDA sensors provide radiation levels versusmore »« less

Analysis of integrated video and radiation data

Conference Howell, J; Menlove, H; Rodriguez, C; ...

We have developed prototype software for a facility-monitoring application that will detect anomalous activity in a nuclear facility. The software, which forms the basis of a simple model, automatically reviews and analyzes integrated safeguards data from continuous unattended monitoring systems. This technology, based on pattern recognition by neural networks, provides significant capability to analyze complex data and has the ability to learn and adapt to changing situations. It is well suited for large automated facilities, reactors, spent-fuel storage facilities, reprocessing plants, and nuclear material storage vaults.

The MIVS (Modular Integrated Video System) Image Processing System (MIPS) for assisting in the optical surveillance data review process

Conference Horton, R

The MIVS (Modular Integrated Video System) Image Processing System (MIPS) is designed to review MIVS surveillance data automatically and identify IAEA defined objects of safeguards interest. To achieve this, MIPS uses both digital image processing and neural network techniques to detect objects of safeguards interest in an image and assist an inspector in the review of the MIVS video tapes. MIPS must be trained'' i.e., given example images showing the objects that it must recognize, for each different facility. Image processing techniques are used to first identify significantly changed areas of the image. A neural network is then used tomore »« less
Using Machine Learning to Track Objects Across Cameras

Conference Lin, Yuewei; Zhang, Xiaoqian; Park, Ji; ...

Video surveillance is one of the most important technologies used by the International Atomic Energy Agency in international safeguards. At large, complicated facilities, multiple surveillance cameras are deployed to monitor the transfer of safeguards-relevant objects across the site. During inspections, all surveillance videos are reviewed to ensure the objects are not manipulated or diverted during transfer, a laborious, time-consuming task. This work describes using deep machine learning algorithms to track objects automatically across multiple cameras, greatly improving the efficiency of the review process. The fundamental problem in this object tracking task across multiple cameras is how to associate the samemore »« less

Review of the state of the art of intelligent control for large stationary engines

Technical Report Willson, B

A project was undertaken to assess the state-of-the-art artificial intelligence in light of application to the monitoring and control of large bore natural gas engines. Several artificial intelligence/intelligent control techniques were examined: heuristic search techniques, adaptive control, expert systems, fuzzy logic, neural networks, and genetic algorithms. Of these, it was concluded that neural networks have the most potential for use on large bore engines due to their capability to recognize patterns in incomplete, noisy data. Neural networks are systems which consist of a large number of very simple interconnected processing units which are capable of `learning` through manipulation of connectionmore »« less
