To automatically detect plastic gasket defects, a set of plastic gasket defect visual detection devices based on GoogLeNet Inception-V2 transfer learning was designed and established in this study. The GoogLeNet Inception-V2 deep convolutional neural network (DCNN) was adopted to extract and classify the defect features of plastic gaskets to solve the problem of their numerous surface defects and difficulty in extracting and classifying the features. Deep learning applications require a large amount of training data to avoid model overfitting, but there are few datasets of plastic gasket defects. To address this issue, data augmentation was applied to our dataset. Finally, the performance of the three convolutional neural networks was comprehensively compared. The results showed that the GoogLeNet Inception-V2 transfer learning model had a better performance in less time. It means it had higher accuracy, reliability, and efficiency on the dataset used in this paper.

Silicon wafer defect data collected from fabrication facilities is intrinsically imbalanced because of the variable frequencies of defect types. Frequently occurring types will have more influence on the classification predictions if a model gets trained on such skewed data. A fair classifier for such imbalanced data requires a mechanism to deal with type imbalance in order to avoid biased results. This study has proposed a convolutional neural network for wafer map defect classification, employing oversampling as an imbalance addressing technique. To have an equal participation of all classes in the classifier’s training, data augmentation has been employed, generating more samples in minor classes. The proposed deep learning method has been evaluated on a real wafer map defect dataset and its classification results on the test set returned a 97.91% accuracy. The results were compared with another deep learning based auto-encoder model demonstrating the proposed method, a potential approach for silicon wafer defect classification that needs to be investigated further for its robustness.

Machine learning is the study of algorithms and models for computing systems to do tasks based on pattern identification and inference. When it is difficult or infeasible to develop an algorithm to do a particular task, machine learning algorithms can provide an output based on previous training data. A well-known machine learning model is deep learning. The most recent deep learning models are based on artificial neural networks (ANN). There exist several types of artificial neural networks including the feedforward neural network, the Kohonen self-organizing neural network, the recurrent neural network, the convolutional neural network, the modular neural network, among others. This article focuses on convolutional neural networks with a description of the model, the training and inference processes and its applicability. It will also give an overview of the most used CNN models and what to expect from the next generation of CNN models.

Purpose The paper aims to address the tracking algorithm based on deep learning and four deep learning tracking models developed. They compared with each other to prevent collision and to obtain target tracking in autonomous aircraft. Design/methodology/approach First, to follow the visual target, the detection methods were used and then the tracking methods were examined. Here, four models (deep convolutional neural networks (DCNN), deep convolutional neural networks with fine-tuning (DCNNFN), transfer learning with deep convolutional neural network (TLDCNN) and fine-tuning deep convolutional neural network with transfer learning (FNDCNNTL)) were developed. Findings The training time of DCNN took 9 min 33 s, while the accuracy percentage was calculated as 84%. In DCNNFN, the training time of the network was calculated as 4 min 26 s and the accuracy percentage was 91%. The training of TLDCNN) took 34 min and 49 s and the accuracy percentage was calculated as 95%. With FNDCNNTL, the training time of the network was calculated as 34 min 33 s and the accuracy percentage was nearly 100%. Originality/value Compared to the results in the literature ranging from 89.4% to 95.6%, using FNDCNNTL, better results were found in the paper.

This paper presents an improved method for recognizing the drill state on the basis of hole images drilled in a laminated chipboard, using convolutional neural network (CNN) and data augmentation techniques. Three classes were used to describe the drill state: red -- for drill that is worn out and should be replaced, yellow -- for state in which the system should send a warning to the operator, indicating that this element should be checked manually, and green -- denoting the drill that is still in good condition, which allows for further use in the production process. The presented method combines the advantages of transfer learning and data augmentation methods to improve the accuracy of the received evaluations. In contrast to the classical deep learning methods, transfer learning requires much smaller training data sets to achieve acceptable results. At the same time, data augmentation customized for drill wear recognition makes it possible to expand the original dataset and to improve the overall accuracy. The experiments performed have confirmed the suitability of the presented approach to accurate class recognition in the given problem, even while using a small original dataset.

Face images contain many important biological characteristics. The research directions of face images mainly include face age estimation, gender judgment, and facial expression recognition. Taking face age estimation as an example, the estimation of face age images through algorithms can be widely used in the fields of biometrics, intelligent monitoring, human-computer interaction, and personalized services. With the rapid development of computer technology, the processing speed of electronic devices has greatly increased, and the storage capacity has been greatly increased, allowing deep learning to dominate the field of artificial intelligence. Traditional age estimation methods first design features manually, then extract features, and perform age estimation. Convolutional neural networks (CNN) in deep learning have incomparable advantages in processing image features. Practice has proven that the accuracy of using convolutional neural networks to estimate the age of face images is far superior to traditional methods. However, as neural networks are designed to be deeper, and networks are becoming larger and more complex, this makes it difficult to deploy models on mobile terminals. Based on a lightweight convolutional neural network, an improved ShuffleNetV2 network based on the mixed attention mechanism (MA-SFV2: Mixed Attention-ShuffleNetV2) is proposed in this paper by transforming the output layer, merging classification and regression age estimation methods, and highlighting important features by preprocessing images and data augmentation methods. The influence of noise vectors such as the environmental information unrelated to faces in the image is reduced, so that the final age estimation accuracy can be comparable to the state-of-the-art.

In the production process of steel strips, the detection of surface defects is very important. However, traditional methods of defect detection bring problems of low detection accuracy and dependence on subjective judgment. In this study, the surface defects of steel strips are detected by a classic convolutional neural network method that is improved by the use of a transfer learning model. This model has the advantages of shorter training time, faster convergence, and more accurate weight parameters. The transfer learning model obtained through experiments secures better results in defect detection than the classic convolutional neural network method, as its accuracy of training and testing has reached about 98%. Finally, a model based on a full convolutional neural network (FCN) is proposed for segmenting the defective areas of steel strips.

The surface defects’ region of strip steel is small, and has various defect types and, complex gray structures. There tend to be a large number of false defects and edge light interference, which lead traditional machine vision algorithms to be unable to detect defects for various types of strip steel. Image detection techniques based on deep learning require a large number of images to train a network. However, for a dataset with few samples with category imbalanced defects, common deep learning neural network training tasks cannot be carried out. Based on rapid image preprocessing algorithms (improved gray projection algorithm, ROI image augmentation algorithm) and transfer learning theory, this paper proposes a set of processes for complete strip steel defect detection. These methods achieved surface rapid screening, defect feature extraction, sample dataset’s category balance, data augmentation, defect detection, and classification. Through verification of the mixed dataset, composed of the NEU surface dataset and dataset in this paper, the recognition accuracy of the improved VGG19 network in this paper reached 97.8%. The improved VGG19 network performs slightly better than the baseline VGG19 in six types of defects, but the improved VGG19 performs significantly better in the surface seams defects. The convergence speed and accuracy of the improved VGG19 network were taken into account, and the detection rate was greatly improved with few samples and imbalanced datasets. This paper also has practical value in terms of extending its method of strip steel defect detection to other products.

Wood defects are quickly identified from an optical image based on deep learning methodology, which effectively improves wood utilization. Traditional neural network techniques have not yet been employed for wood defect detection due to long training time, low recognition accuracy, and nonautomatical extraction of defect image features. In this work, a model (so-called ReSENet-18) for wood knot defect detection that combined deep learning and transfer learning is proposed. The “squeeze-and-excitation” (SE) module is firstly embedded into the “residual basic block” structure for a “SE-Basic-Block” module construction. This model has the advantages of the features that are extracted in the channel dimension, and it is fused in multiscale with original features. Instantaneously, the fully connected layer is replaced with a global average pooling; consequently, the model parameters could be reduced effectively. The experimental results show that the accuracy has reached 99.02%, meanwhile the training time is also reduced. It shows that the proposed deep convolutional neural network based on ReSENet-18 combined with transfer learning can improve the accuracy of defect recognition and has a potential application in the detection of wood knot defects.
