AI-based methods offer several advantages in improving prediction performance for variance detection and functional outcome prediction. This leads to automation that helps in the security risk assessment and clearance process. Automating threat object detection from x-ray scans of parcels leads to increased efficiency of the whole security procedure. There is a partnership in operation in which solutions are developed that are also learning in the workflow, bringing the deep expertise of an R&D organization into the field of post and logistics (reading CN22 content, sender receiver information, reading x-ray images for opioid detection) as well as traffic surveillance and document understanding.
