                      Due to enormous growth of textile industries has increased demand for the automatic fabric defect detection and classification system to the fabric material as it plays a crucial role in maintaining the quality of the services. Machine learning model has employed as automatic defect detection system to identify the material quality. Despite of several advantageous of the machine learning model, those models faces several challenges on handling the complex and uncertainty of varied texture and structural patterns. Further it is complex to process the boundaries and features with high degree of intra class variation and low degree of interclass variations. On leveraging and exploiting the deep learning architecture, the over lapping and varied texture patterns can be efficiently discriminated on defects. In this paper, a new deep learning architecture entitled as discriminative convolution neural model is proposed to detect and classify the defects in the fabric materials into various defect classes. Initially fabric image preprocessed on basis of the noise filtering through wiener filter and image enhancement through CLAHE technique. Enhanced image is segmented using image thresholding technique to segment it into the various regions on basis of pixel information’s by grouping the neighbouring similar pixels intensity or textures to represent a mask. Segmented image regions are projected to the convolution neural network. Convolution layer of network is to extract the features from its composition containing kernels with different weights. It computes the high level features for different pixels based on surrounding and neighbouring pixel values on striding to produce the feature map containing gradient and edge of the images.  ReLU activation function is applied to reduce the non linearity among the features in the feature map. Pooling layer of the model down-sample the convolved features to produce the activation map. Activation map is obtained using max pooling as it returns maximum value from the segment of the image processed using kernels. Activation map is transformed into tabular structure to perform the classification easily. In addition drop out layer is incorporated in the model to eliminate the overfitting issue during classification on reducing the correlation among the neurons. Fully connected layers of the model is used to learn the flattened features with weights and bias to classify the flatten features using softmax layer on basis of defect classes such as Hole , Color Spot, Thread Error  and foreign body.  Experimental analysis of the proposed architecture is carried out on TILDA dataset using cross fold validation to analyse the representation ability to discriminate the features with large variance between the different classes. From the results, it is confirming that proposed architecture exhibiting higher performance in classification accuracy of 98.43% in classifying the fabric defect on compared with conventional approache

    In line with the development of Industry 4.0, surface defect detection/anomaly detection becomes a topical subject in the industry field. Improving efficiency as well as saving labor costs has steadily become a matter of great concern in practice, where deep learning-based algorithms perform better than traditional vision inspection methods in recent years. While existing deep learning-based algorithms are biased towards supervised learning, which not only necessitates a huge amount of labeled data and human labor, but also brings about inefficiency and limitations. In contrast, recent research shows that unsupervised learning has great potential in tackling the above disadvantages for visual industrial anomaly detection. In this survey, we summarize current challenges and provide a thorough overview of recently proposed unsupervised algorithms for visual industrial anomaly detection covering five categories, whose innovation points and frameworks are described in detail. Meanwhile, publicly available datasets for industrial anomaly detection are introduced. By comparing different classes of methods, the advantages and disadvantages of anomaly detection algorithms are summarized. Based on the current research framework, we point out the core issue that remains to be resolved and provide further improvement directions. Meanwhile, based on the latest technological trends, we offer insights into future research directions.

    Non-destructive testing of composite fibre materials with hyperspectral imaging: evaluative studies in the EU H2020 FibreEUse project.

    Get PDF
    Through capturing spectral data from a wide frequency range along with the spatial information, hyperspectral imaging (HSI) can detect minor differences in terms of temperature, moisture and chemical composition. Therefore, HSI has been successfully applied in various applications, including remote sensing for security and defense, precision agriculture for vegetation and crop monitoring, food/drink, and pharmaceuticals quality control. However, for condition monitoring and damage detection in carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP), the use of HSI is a relatively untouched area, as existing non-destructive testing (NDT) techniques focus mainly on delivering information about physical integrity of structures but not on material composition. To this end, HSI can provide a unique way to tackle this challenge. In this paper, with the use of a near-infrared HSI camera, applications of HSI for the non-destructive inspection of CFRP products are introduced, taking the EU H2020 FibreEUse project as the background. Technical challenges and solutions on three case studies are presented in detail, including adhesive residues detection, surface damage detection and Cobot based automated inspection. Experimental results have fully demonstrated the great potential of HSI and related vision techniques for NDT of CFRP, especially the potential to satisfy the industrial manufacturing environment

    ABSTRACT The defect detection problem is of outmost importance in high-tech industries such as aerospace manufacturing and is widely employed using automated industrial quality control systems. In the aerospace manufacturing industry, composite materials are extensively applied as structural components in civilian and military aircraft. To ensure the quality of the product and high reliability, manual inspection and traditional automatic optical inspection have been employed to identify the defects throughout production and maintenance. These inspection techniques have several limitations such as tedious, time- consuming, inconsistent, subjective, labor intensive, expensive, etc. To make the operation effective and efficient, modern automated optical inspection needs to be preferred. In this dissertation work, automatic defect detection techniques are tested on three levels using a novel aerospace composite materials image dataset (ACMID). First, classical machine learning models, namely, Support Vector Machine and Random Forest, are employed for both datasets. Second, deep CNN-based models, such as improved ResNet50 and MobileNetV2 architectures are trained on ACMID datasets. Third, an efficient defect detection technique that combines the features of deep learning and classical machine learning model is proposed for ACMID dataset. To assess the aerospace composite components, all the models are trained and tested on ACMID datasets with distinct sizes. In addition, this work investigates the scenario when defective and non-defective samples are scarce and imbalanced. To overcome the problems of imbalanced and scarce datasets, oversampling techniques and data augmentation using improved deep convolutional generative adversarial networks (DCGAN) are considered. Furthermore, the proposed models are also validated using one of the benchmark steel surface defects (SSD) dataset

    Metal additive manufacturing (AM) is gaining increasing attention from academia and industry due to its unique advantages compared to the traditional manufacturing process. Parts quality inspection is playing a crucial role in theAMindustry, which can be adopted for product improvement. However, the traditional inspection process has relied on manual recognition, which could suffer from low efficiency and potential bias. This study presented a convolutional neural network (CNN) approach toward robust AM quality inspection, such as good quality, crack, gas porosity, and lack of fusion. To obtain the appropriate model, experiments were performed on a series of architectures. Moreover, data augmentation was adopted to deal with data scarcity. L2 regularization (weight decay) and dropout were applied to avoid overfitting. The impact of each strategy was evaluated. The final CNN model achieved an accuracy of 92.1%, and it took 8.01 milliseconds to recognize one image. The CNN model presented here can help in automatic defect recognition in the AM industry
