Abstract:
A system and method for non-destructive optical coherence tomography (OCT) is provided. The system includes: an input interface for receiving OCT data including at least a C-scan; a processing unit executable to detect a feature on a surface or subsurface of the object, trained using a training set and configured to: separate the C-scan into A-scans; using a neural network, successively analyze each A-scan to detect the presence of an A-scan feature associated with the object; separate the C-scan into B-scans; segment each of the B-scans to determine thresholds associated with the object; using a neural network, successively analyze each segmented B-scan to detect the presence of an B-scan feature associated with the object; convert the C-scan to one or more two-dimensional representations; and using a neural network, detect the presence of an C-scan feature associated with the object.
