Statistical decision methods in the presence of linear nuisance parameters and despite imaging system heteroscedastic noise: Application to wheel surface inspection. Signal Processing, Elsevier, 2018, 144, pp. AbstractThis paper proposes a novel method for fully automatic anomaly detection on objects inspected using an imaging system. In order to address the inspection of a wide range of objects and to allow the detection of any anomaly, an original adaptive linear parametric model is proposed; The great flexibility of this adaptive model offers highest accuracy for a wide range of complex surfaces while preserving detection of small defects. In addition, because the proposed original model remains linear it allows the application of the hypothesis testing theory to design a test whose statistical performances are analytically known. Another important novelty of this paper is that it takes into account the specific heteroscedastic noise of imaging systems. Indeed, in such systems, the noise level depends on the pixels' intensity which should be carefully taken into account for providing the proposed test with statistical properties. The proposed detection method is then applied for wheels surface inspection using an imaging system. Due to the nature of the wheels, the different elements are analyzed separately. Numerical results on a large set of real images show both the accuracy of the proposed adaptive model and the sharpness of the ensuing statistical test.

Defect detection algorithm for magnetic particle inspection of aviation ferromagnetic parts based on improved DeepLabv3+

“…As the leakage magnetic field strength at the defects on the workpiece surface is the strongest, many fluorescent magnetic particles are attracted to the defects and piled up to form magnetic marks, as shown in figure 1. Surface defects of the workpiece will be displayed in a dark environment [22].…”

“…The processing platform analyzes and processes the acquired images to give the final inspection information. These are the basic descriptions of an AVI system, which also incorporates multiple software solutions to control different elements of the system (cameras and lighting system) [15]. Such automatic defect detections would lead to further automatizationautomatic production order release for rejected quantities.…”

“…To detect any defects, the system must be trained, and its sample flow chart is presented in Figure 2. The process starts with the need to resize images to reduce the load of the system [16] since the general requirements of any AVI system are fast, cost-effective, and reliable systems [15]. Then, the system would do two checks-oil and scratch detections.…”
