Internship (m/f) 80-100% - Feature Classification and Processing

In sheet metal forming, components are often manufactured in several steps. For simulation and tool creation, the states between these steps are needed. Currently, users can achieve this by applying various geometry operators. The goal of this internship is to automate this process. The user selects a specific area of the component. Afterward, this area should be analyzed, and a suggestion of the required operators and their parameters should be generated for the user.

The complexity of these areas varies from simple to highly complex. Once the simple cases are solved, the complexity can be extended as desired. Solutions can involve geometric analyses of components, heuristic methods, machine learning approaches, or a mix of these approaches. The implementation will be in C++.
