Project title

Characterisation of ore and bulk solid systems by use of multivariate by image analysis and deep learning neural networks

Host university

Curtin University

Supervisor: Professor Chris Aldrich

Benefit to Western Australia

Yihao is working on flexible and inexpensive AI technologies for the recognition and characterisation of textures in bulk solid material flows. Automated textural classification could support rapid ore-sorting and inform controls on metallurgical processing, delivering potential efficiency gains in the Western Australian gold and iron ore industries.
