2022 R&D 100 Award for Machine Intelligence for Review and Analysis of Condition Logs and Entries (MIRACLE)

In the nuclear power industry, every issue, no matter how small, is documented in a condition report. In each plant, hundreds of these are reviewed and characterized every week by dozens of people. MIRACLE employs machine learning and natural language processing to automate this process, saving millions while improving safety. On a broader stage, although MIRACLE is intended for use in nuclear power plants, the methods developed in its creation should be valuable in any industry that requires massive volumes of documentation reviews. MIRACLE offers savings and efficiencies.
