Automated car damage classification using deep learning and computer vision
Computer Vision & Deep Learning
Developed a deep learning–based Proof of Concept to automatically detect and classify car damage from images. The system categorizes damage into six classes covering front and rear sections of vehicles.
The solution leverages transfer learning using a pre-trained ResNet50 model and demonstrates how deep learning can significantly reduce manual inspection time in insurance and automobile assessment workflows.
The dataset consisted of 2300 labeled images distributed across six damage categories. Multiple architectures were tested, including custom CNNs and EfficientNet, before selecting ResNet50 for its superior feature extraction and performance.
This project highlights strong skills in deep learning workflows, transfer learning, model evaluation, and real-world deployment through a user-friendly web interface.
