An Effective Method of Weld Defect Detection and Classification Based on Machine Vision

Sun, Jun, Li, Chao, Wu, Xiao-Jun, Palade, Vasile, Fang, Wei·2019·IEEE Transactions on Industrial Informatics

Abstract

In order to effectively identify and classify weld defects of thin-walled metal canisters, a weld defect detection and classification algorithm based on machine vision is proposed in this paper. With the weld defects categorized, a modified background subtraction method based on Gaussian mixture models, is proposed to extract the feature areas of the weld defects. Then, we design an algorithm for weld detection and classification according to the extracted features. Next, by using the weld images sampled by the constructed weld defect detection system on a real-world production line, the parameters of the weld defect classifiers are determined empirically. Experimental results show that the proposed methods can identify and classify the weld defects with more than 95% accuracy rate. Moreover, the weld detection results obtained in the actual production line show that the detection and classification accuracy can reach more than 99%, which means that the system enhanced with the proposed method can meet the requirements for the best real-time and continuous weld defect detection systems available nowadays.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
