Abstract
Abstract Acoustic Emission (AE) has emerged as a popular damage detection and localization tool due to its high performance in identifying minor damage or crack. Due to the high sampling rate, AE sensors result in massive data during long-term monitoring of large-scale civil structures. Analyzing such big data and associated AE parameters (e.g., rise time, amplitude, counts, etc.) becomes time-consuming using traditional feature extraction methods. This paper proposes a 2D convolutional neural network (2D CNN)-based Artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithm combined with time–frequency decomposition techniques to extract the damage information from the measured AE data without using standalone AE parameters. In this paper, Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD) is employed to extract the intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) from noisy raw AE measurements, where the IMFs serve as the key AE components of the data. Continuous Wavelet Transform (CWT) is then used to obtain the spectrograms of the AE components, serving as the “artificial images” to an AI network. These spectrograms are fed into 2D CNN algorithm to detect and identify the potential location of the damage. The proposed approach is validated using a suite of numerical and experimental studies.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
