An Adaptive Method for Inspecting Illumination of Color Intensity in Transparent Polyethylene Terephthalate Preforms

Abstract

Machine vision systems are applied in industry to control the quality of production while optimizing efficiency. A machine vision and AI-based inspection of color intensity in transparent Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) preforms is especially sensitive to backgrounds and lighting, therefore, much attention is given to its illumination conditions. The paper examines the adverse factors affecting the quality of image recognition and presents an adaptive method for reducing the influence of changing illumination conditions in the color inspection process of transparent PET preforms. The method is based on predicting measured color intensity correction parameters according to illumination conditions. To test this adaptive method, a hardware and software system for image capture and processing was developed. This system is capable of inspecting large quantities of preforms in real time using a neural network with a modified gradient descent and momentum algorithm. The experiment showed that correction of the measured color intensity value reduced the standard deviation caused by variable and uneven illumination by 61.51%, demonstrating that machine vision color intensity evaluation is a robust and adaptive solution under illuminated conditions for detecting abnormalities in machine-based PET inspection procedures.

Efficient Generalized EEG-Based Drowsiness Detection Approach with Minimal Electrodes

“…These methods aim to improve model performance by reducing dimensionality, improving interpretability, and mitigating overfitting. Common approaches include filtering methods [46], which evaluate characteristics independently of the learning algorithm; encapsulation methods [47], which use the performance of the learning algorithm as a feature selection criterion; and embedded methods [48], where feature selection is integrated into the model building process itself. Each method offers distinct advantages and trade-offs, depending on factors such as the size of the dataset, dimensionality, and computing resources.…”

Identification for Recycling Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) Plastic Bottles by Polarization Vision

“…Support vector machine (SVM) has significant advantages in solving two kinds of supervised classification problems [31]- [35]. In this paper, combined with SVM algorithm, 20 groups of randomly selected training sets of the same size were used for model learning and testing to verify the influence of the training set on the learning results.…”
