Wood Aging Visualization and Estimation – WAVE
Research project
02/2025 - 08/2027
Project volume:169.984 EURO
Competence field:Wood as a raw material, Timber construction
Cooperation:Strategic cooperation
Funding partner:Federal funding, EU funding
The project investigates dose-dependent colour changes in wood. Machine learning (ML) models are developed, trained, and optimised using a range of artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms. The aim is to enable accurate predictions and analysis of wood ageing processes based on empirical research datasets, generating robust and reliable results.
Project leader:
February 2025 to September 2025: Prof. Dr.-Ing. Alexander Pfriem
October 2025 to August 2027: Prof. Dr Tobias Cremer
The project investigates dose-dependent colour changes in wood.
