Abstract
The IJPHMNA 2026 data challenge aimed to predict pitting progression in gears, where the two main encountered difficulties were the lack of ground truth, with only images of the tooth flanks provided, requiring further processing for a label to be obtained, and the limited amount of given image acquisitions during training which required a model that could be trained on a low amount of labeled data.
