“…According to the types of the defects detected, the above approaches can be divided into three categories: (1) the first category is the defect detection for glass substrates (Tsai & Chao, 2005;Tsai et al, 2006), performed before the glass substrates enter the TFT-LCD manufacturing, (2) the second one detects the surface defects on TFT panels (Lu & Tsai, 2004), performed after the array process is complete, and (3) the last category inspects different types of mura defects (Baek et al, 2004;Zhang, Yan, Zhang, & Huang, 2006;Ryu et al, 2004;Lee & Yoo, 2004;Kim et al, 2004;Oh et al, 2004;Song et al, 2004;Mori et al, 2004;Pratt et al, 1998), performed in cell or module assembly processes.…”
