Applying deep learning to defect detection in printed circuit boards via a newest model of you-only-look-once
In this paper, a new model known as YOLO-v5 is initiated to detect defects in PCB. In the past many models and different approaches have been implemented in the quality inspection for detection of defect in PCBs. This algorithm is specifically selected due to its efficiency, accuracy and speed. It is well known that the traditional YOLO models (YOLO, YOLO-v2, YOLO-v3, YOLO-v4 and Tiny-YOLO-v2) are the state-of-the-art in artificial intelligence industry. In electronics industry, the PCB is the core and the most basic component of any electronic product. PCB is almost used in each and every electronic product that we use in our daily life not only for commercial purposes, but also used in sensitive applications such defense and space exploration. These PCB should be inspected and quality checked to detect any kind of defects during the manufacturing process. Most of the electronic industries are focused on the quality of their product, a small error during manufacture or quality inspection of the electronic products such as PCB leads to a catastrophic end. Therefore, there is a huge revolution going on in the manufacturing industry where the object detection method like YOLO-v5 is a game changer for many industries such as electronic industries.Ministry of Science and Technology, Taiwa

Unsupervised anomaly detection in printed circuit boards through studentâteacher feature pyramid matching
Copyright: © 2021 by the authors. Deep learning methods are currently used in industries to improve the efficiency and quality of the product. Detecting defects on printed circuit boards (PCBs) is a challenging task and is usually solved by automated visual inspection, automated optical inspection, manual inspection, and supervised learning methods, such as you only look once (YOLO) of tiny YOLO, YOLOv2, YOLOv3, YOLOv4, and YOLOv5. Previously described methods for defect detection in PCBs re-quire large numbers of labeled images, which is computationally expensive in training and requires a great deal of human effort to label the data. This paper introduces a new unsupervised learning method for the detection of defects in PCB using studentâteacher feature pyramid matching as a preâtrained image classification model used to learn the distribution of images without anomalies. Hence, we extracted the knowledge into a student network which had same architecture as the teacher network. This oneâstep transfer retains key clues as much as possible. In addition, we incor-porated a multiâscale feature matching strategy into the framework. A mixture of multiâlevel knowledge from the features pyramid passes through a better supervision, known as hierarchical feature alignment, which allows the student network to receive it, thereby allowing for the detection of various sizes of anomalies. A scoring function reflects the probability of the occurrence of anom-alies. This framework helped us to achieve accurate anomaly detection. Apart from accuracy, its inference speed also reached around 100 frames per second.Ministry of Science and Technology (MOST) of Taiwan (grant number: MOST 109-2622-E-155-007), Avary Holding (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd and Boardtek Electronics Corporation, Taiwan
Advancements and Breakthroughs in Ultrasound Imaging
Ultrasonic imaging is a powerful diagnostic tool available to medical practitioners, engineers and researchers today. Due to the relative safety, and the non-invasive nature, ultrasonic imaging has become one of the most rapidly advancing technologies. These rapid advances are directly related to the parallel advancements in electronics, computing, and transducer technology together with sophisticated signal processing techniques. This book focuses on state of the art developments in ultrasonic imaging applications and underlying technologies presented by leading practitioners and researchers from many parts of the world
Open Source EEG Platform with Reconfigurable Features for Multiple-Scenarios
Electroencephalogram (EEG) acquisition systems are widely used as diagnostic and research tools. This document shows the implementation of a reconfigurable family of three affordable 8-channels, 24 bits of resolution, EEG acquisition systems intended for a wide variety of research purposes. The three devices offer a modular design and upgradability, permitting changes in the firmware and software. Due to the nature of the Analog Front-End (AFE) used, no high-pass analog filters were implemented, allowing the capture of very low frequency components. Two systems of the family, called âRF-Brainâ and âBluetooth-Brainâ, were designed to be light and wireless, planned for experimentation where movement of the subject cannot be restricted. The sample rate in these systems can be configured up to 2000 samples per second (SPS) for the RF-Brain and 250 SPS for the Bluetooth-Brain when the 8 channels are used. If fewer channels are required, the sampling frequency can be higher (up to 4 kSPS or 2 kSPS for 1 channel for RF-Brain and Bluetooth-Brain respectively). The third system, named âUSB-Brainâ, is a wired device designed for purposes requiring high sampling frequency acquisition and general purpose ports, with sampling rates up to 4 kSPS

A Novel System and Image Processing for Improving 3D Ultrasound-guided Interventional Cancer Procedures
Image-guided medical interventions are diagnostic and therapeutic procedures that focus on minimizing surgical incisions for improving disease management and reducing patient burden relative to conventional techniques. Interventional approaches, such as biopsy, brachytherapy, and ablation procedures, have been used in the management of cancer for many anatomical regions, including the prostate and liver. Needles and needle-like tools are often used for achieving planned clinical outcomes, but the increased dependency on accurate targeting, guidance, and verification can limit the widespread adoption and clinical scope of these procedures. Image-guided interventions that incorporate 3D information intraoperatively have been shown to improve the accuracy and feasibility of these procedures, but clinical needs still exist for improving workflow and reducing physician variability with widely applicable cost-conscience approaches. The objective of this thesis was to incorporate 3D ultrasound (US) imaging and image processing methods during image-guided cancer interventions in the prostate and liver to provide accessible, fast, and accurate approaches for clinical improvements.
An automatic 2D-3D transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) registration algorithm was optimized and implemented in a 3D TRUS-guided system to provide continuous prostate motion corrections with sub-millimeter and sub-degree error in 36 ± 4 ms. An automatic and generalizable 3D TRUS prostate segmentation method was developed on a diverse clinical dataset of patient images from biopsy and brachytherapy procedures, resulting in errors at gold standard accuracy with a computation time of 0.62 s. After validation of mechanical and image reconstruction accuracy, a novel 3D US system for focal liver tumor therapy was developed to guide therapy applicators with 4.27 ± 2.47 mm error. The verification of applicators post-insertion motivated the development of a 3D US applicator segmentation approach, which was demonstrated to provide clinically feasible assessments in 0.246 ± 0.007 s. Lastly, a general needle and applicator tool segmentation algorithm was developed to provide accurate intraoperative and real-time insertion feedback for multiple anatomical locations during a variety of clinical interventional procedures. Clinical translation of these developed approaches has the potential to extend the overall patient quality of life and outcomes by improving detection rates and reducing local cancer recurrence in patients with prostate and liver cancer
