Haha this is definitely one of the more niche applications of ai/machine learning I've seen. As many have said, don't know if it helps us as students of the keris, but it's a fun machine learning exercise that can certainly be advanced.
You could probably use some variant or less sophisticated version of a machine learning model used in geospatial applications. If it can recognise topography (depth, height, etc.), then it will be able to distinguish the full array of ricikan that we need to be able to train the machine to make a prediction about what dhapur a keris is.
Imagine being able to take a photo of your keris, uploading it to Keris Warung Kopi, and our resident machine can tell you in seconds. We might put Alan out of a job!
