  • Publication number: 20230126843
    Abstract: This fusion splicing system includes a model creation device and a plurality of fusion splicers. The model creation device creates a determination model by performing machine learning using sample data indicating a correspondence relationship between feature amounts obtained from imaging data of optical fibers and types of the optical fibers. Each fusion splicer has an imaging unit, a determination unit, and a splicing unit. The imaging unit generates imaging data. The determination unit inputs feature amounts to the determination model and determines a type of each of the pair of optical fibers. The splicing unit fusion splices the pair of optical fibers on splicing conditions based on determination results. The model creation device creates the determination model by classifying the plurality of fusion splicers into two or more groups each estimated to have similar tendencies in the imaging data and collecting the sample data for each group.
