A Real-Time Defect Detection Method for Digital Signal Processing of Industrial Inspection Applications
Abstract
The signal processing of industrial big data (IBD) is a challenging task, owing to the complex working scenarios and the lack of annotations. Defect detection, which is an important subject of IBD research works, has shown its effectiveness in digital signal processing of industrial inspection applications in many previous studies. This article proposes a novel defect detection method based on deep learning for digital signal processing of industrial inspection applications. In our method, a module named feature collection and compression network is applied to merge multiscale feature information. Then, a new pooling method named Gaussian weighted pooling, which provides more precise location information, is used to replace region of interest (ROI) pooling. Experiment results show that our method gets improvements in both accuracy and efficiency, with mAP/AP50 of 41.8/80.2 at 33 fps on NEUDET, which satisfies the requirement of real-time systems.

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.
