A question of expertise
Gübelin is known for the high-quality standards it applies to its analyses. And while cutting-edge, highly complex analysis methods are utilized in its Lucerne lab, a large portion of the data interpretation relies on human evaluation by experienced experts. To ensure a high level of consistency in the results, Gübelin joined forces with the Swiss technology innovation center, CSEM, back in 2020 to develop a high-performance machine learning software (to the corresponding press release). The system helps relieve the experts from the arduous task of interpreting large volumes of data. A team led by Philipp Schmid, Head of the Industry 4.0 and Machine Learning Section at CSEM, helped guide the complex "Gemtelligence" project towards fruition. “Today, we have been able to bring the project to a successful conclusion, and together with Gübelin, we have been able to launch the first digital 'super-expert' for gemstones,” says Phillip Schmid. “This takes care of the extensive interpretation of analytical data, supporting the human experts in their labor-intensive work,” he adds.
