Various defects are formed on the workpiece surface during the production process. Workpiece surface defects are classified according to various characteristics, which includes a bumped surface, scratched surface and pit surface. Suppliers analyze the cause of workpiece surface defects through the defect types and thus determines the subsequent processing. Therefore, the correct classification is essential regarding workpiece surface defects. In this paper, a multi-classifier decision-level fusion classification model for workpiece surface defects based on a convolutional neural network (CNN) was proposed. In the proposed model, the histogram of oriented gradient (HOG) was used to extract the features of the second fully connected layer of the CNN, and the features of the HOG were further extracted by using the local binary patterns (LBP), which was called the HOG–LBP feature extraction. Finally, this paper designed a symmetry ensemble classifier, which was used to classify the features of the last fully connected layer of the CNN and the features of the HOG–LBP. The comprehensive decision was made by fusing the classification results of the symmetry structure channels. The experiments were carried out, and the results showed that the proposed model could improve the accuracy of the workpiece surface defect classification.

In this paper, we design method for recognition of fingerprint and IRIS using feature level fusion and decision level fusion in Children multimodal biometric system. Initially, Histogram of Gradients (HOG), Gabour and Maximum filter response are extracted from both the domains of fingerprint and IRIS and considered for identification accuracy. The combination of feature vector of all the possible features is recommended by biometrics traits of fusion. For fusion vector the Principal Component Analysis (PCA) is used to select features. The reduced features are fed into fusion classifier of K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN), Support Vector Machine (SVM), Navie Bayes(NB). For children multimodal biometric system the suitable combination of features and fusion classifiers is identified. The experimentation conducted on children’s fingerprint and IRIS database and results reveal that fusion combination outperforms individual. In addition the proposed model advances the unimodal biometrics system.
