Deep learning has offered new avenues in the field of industrial management. Traditional methods of quality inspection such as Acceptance Sampling relies on a probabilistic measure derived from inspecting a sample of finished products. Evaluating a fixed number of products to derive the quality level for the complete batch is not a robust approach. Visual inspection solutions based on deep learning can be employed in the large manufacturing units to improve the quality inspection units for steel surface defect detection. This leads to optimization of the human capital due to reduction in manual intervention and turnaround time in the overall supply chain of the industry. Consequently, the sample size in the Acceptance sampling can be increased with minimal effort vis-à-vis an increase in the overall accuracy of the inspection. The learning curve of this work is supported by Convolutional Neural Network which has been used to extract feature representations from grayscale images to classify theinputs into six types of surface defects. The neural network architecture is compiled in Keras framework using Tensorflow backend with state of the art Adam RMS Prop with Nesterov Momentum (NADAM) optimizer. The proposed classification algorithm holds the potential to identify the dominant flaws in the manufacturing system responsible for leaking costs.

In order to realize the non-destructive intelligent identification of weld surface defects, an intelligent recognition method based on deep learning is proposed, which is mainly formed by convolutional neural network (CNN) and forest random. First, the high-level features are automatically learned through the CNN. Random forest is trained with extracted high-level features to predict the classification results. Secondly, the weld surface defects images are collected and preprocessed by image enhancement and threshold segmentation. A database of weld surface defects is established using pre-processed images. Finally, comparative experiments are performed on the weld surface defects database. The results show that the accuracy of the method combined with CNN and random forest can reach 0.9875, and it also demonstrates the method is effective and practical.

This paper mainly improves the visual geometry group network-16 (VGG-16), which is a classic convolutional neural network (CNN), to classify the surface defects on cement concrete bridges in an accurate manner. Specifically, the number of fully connected layers was reduced by one, and the Softmax classifier was replaced with a Softmax classification layer with seven defect tags. The weight parameters of convolutional and pooling layers were shared in the pre-trained model, and the rectified linear unit (ReLU) function was taken as the activation function. The original images were collected by a road inspection vehicle driving across bridges on national and provincial highways in Jiangxi Province, China. The images on surface defects of cement concrete bridges were selected, and divided into a training set and a test set, and preprocessed through morphology-based weight adaptive denoising. To verify its performance, the improved VGG-16 was compared with traditional shallow neural networks (NNs) like the backpropagation neural network (BPNN), support vector machine (SVM), and deep CNNs like AlexNet, GoogLeNet, and ResNet on the same sample dataset of surface defects on cement concrete bridges. Judging by mean detection accuracy and top-5 accuracy, our model outperformed all the contrastive methods, and accurately differentiated between images with seven classes of defects such as normal, cracks, fracturing, plate fracturing, corner rupturing, edge/corner exfoliation, skeleton exposure, and repairs. The results indicate that our model can effectively extract the multi-layer features from surface defect images, which highlights the edges and textures. The research findings shed important new light on the detection of surface defects and classification of defect images.

In the lumber and wood processing industry, most visual quality inspections are still done by trained human operators. Visual inspection is a tedious and repetitive task that involves a high likelihood of human error. Currently, new automated solutions with high-resolution cameras and visual inspection algorithms are being tested, but they are not always fast and accurate enough for real-time industrial applications. This paper proposes an automatic visual inspection system for the location and classification of defects on the wood surface. We adopted a faster region-based convolutional neural network (faster R-CNN) for the identification of defects on wood veneer surfaces. Faster R-CNN has been successfully used in medical image processing and object tracking before, but it has not yet been applied for wood panel surface quality assurance. To improve the results, we used pre-trained AlexNet, VGG16, BNInception, and ResNet152 neural network models for transfer learning. The results of the experiments using a synthetically augmented dataset are presented. The best average accuracy of 80.6% was obtained using the pretrained ResNet152 neural network model. By combining all the defect classes, a 96.1% accuracy of finding wood panel surface defects was achieved.
