    Abstract: A monitoring system for monitoring a plurality of components is provided. The monitoring system includes a plurality of client systems. The plurality of client systems is configured to generate a plurality of component status reports. The plurality of component status reports is associated with the plurality of components. The monitoring system also includes a component wear monitoring (CWM) computer device configured to receive the plurality of component status reports from the plurality of client systems, generate component status information based on a plurality of component status reports, aggregate the component status information to identify a plurality of images associated with a first component, and compare the plurality of images associated with the first component. The plurality of images represents the first component at different points in time. The CWM computer device is also configured to determine a state of the first component based on the comparison.

    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided relating to artificial neural networks are provided. The systems and methods obtain a teacher network that includes artificial neural layers configured to automatically identify one or more objects in an image examined by the artificial neural layers, receive a set of task images at the teacher network, examine the set of task images with the teacher network, identify a subset of the artificial neural layers that are utilized during examination of the set of task images with the teacher network, and define a student network based on the set of task images. The student network is configured to automatically identify one or more objects in an image examined by the subset.

    Abstract: A method for performing a visual inspection of a gas turbine engine may generally include inserting a plurality of optical probes through a plurality of access ports of the gas turbine engine. The access ports may be spaced apart axially along a longitudinal axis of the gas turbine engine such that the optical probes provide internal views of the gas turbine engine from a plurality of different axial locations along the gas turbine engine. The method may also include coupling the optical probes to a computing device, rotating the gas turbine engine about the longitudinal axis as the optical probes are used to simultaneously obtain images of an interior of the gas turbine engine at the different axial locations and receiving, with the computing device, image data associated with the images obtained by each of the optical probes at the different axial locations.
