The reliable detection of the limited defect in TFT-LCD images is difficult due to the small intensity difference with the background. However, the proposed detection method reliably detects the limited defect by enhancing the TFT-LCD image based on the cumulative histogram and then detecting the defect through the mean and standard deviation of the enhanced image. Notably, an image enhancement using a cumulative histogram increases the intensity contrast between the background and the limited defect, which then allows defects to be detected by using the mean and standard deviation of the enhanced image. Furthermore, through the comparison with the histogram equalization, we confirm that the proposed algorithm suppresses the emphasis of the noise. Experimental comparative results using real TFT-LCD images and pseudo images show that the proposed method detects the limited defect more reliably than conventional methods.

In this paper an improved morphological algorithm for directional defect detection is proposed, where the defect is parallel to the texture image. The algorithm is based on obtaining the background image while removing the defect by comparing every directional morphological result with max or min except that of defect. The defect can of defect and the background image. For a computer simulation, it is shown that the proposed method has better performance than the conventional algorithm.

Defect region segmentation of TFT-LCD images is performed by combining defect pixels detected by a defect detection method into defect region, or by using morphological operations to segment defect region. Therefore, the result of segmentation of the defect region is highly dependent on the defect detection result. In this paper, we propose a method which segments defect regions sequentially according to the possibility of being included in defect regions in TFT-LCD images. The proposed method repeats the process of detecting a seed using the median value and the median absolute deviation of the image, and segments the defect region using the seeded region growing method. We confirmed the superiority of the proposed method to segment defect regions using pseudo-images and real TFT-LCD images.

영상에서 일정 영역의 화소들이 불규칙적인 형태를 이루는 것을 불량이라 하는데 이를 수학적으로 정확히 정의하기 어렵다는 점이 불량 검출을 쉽지 않게 한다. 하지만 주어진 영상이 다수의 반복되는 패턴을 가지고 있다면 불량이 아닌 영역은 그 외의 다른 영역들로 설명되어 될 수 있다는 점을 이용하여 영상내의 불량 영역을 찾아낼 수 있다. 따라서 본 논문은 이러한 특성을 이용하여 다양한 패턴이 반복되는 영상에 존재하는 불량을 검출하는 방법을 제시한다. 제시된 방법은 크게 세 단계로 이루어진다. 첫 번째 단계는 interest point 검출단계이다. 두 번째 단계는 적절한 패치의 크기를 결정하는 단계이다. 마지막으로 세 번째 단계는 불량을 검출하는 단계이다. 제시된 방법은 반도체 wafer를 SEM을 이용하여 촬영한 영상들을 통하여 예증된다.

Defect detection is one of the key factors in fabric quality control. To improve the speed and accuracy of denim fabric defect detection, this paper proposes a defect detection algorithm based on cascading feature extraction architecture. Firstly, this paper extracts these weight parameters of the pre-trained VGG16 model on the large dataset ImageNet and uses its portability to train the defect detection classifier and the defect recognition classifier respectively. Secondly, retraining and adjusting partial weight parameters of the convolution layer were retrained and adjusted from of these two training models on the high-definition fabric defect dataset. The last step is merging these two models to get the defect detection algorithm based on cascading architecture. Then there are two comparative experiments between this improved defect detection algorithm and other feature extraction methods, such as VGG16, ResNet-50, and Xception. The results of experiments show that the defect detection accuracy of this defect detection algorithm can reach 94.3% and the speed is also increased by 1-3 percentage points.

본 논문에서는 순차적 결함 검출 방법을 이용하여 TFT-LCD의 결함 영역(Blob)을 효과적으로 검출하는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 먼저 결함과 배경 간의 휘도 차를 이용하여 영상의 각 화소들에 대한 결함 확률을 판단하고, 결함 확률에 따른 순차적 결함 검출 방법을 이용하여 결함 후보 화소를 검출한다. 여기서 결함 확률이란 결함 후보 화소가 검출된 단계에 따라 결함 영역에 포함될 가능성을 나타내다. 형태학 연산을 적용함으로써 검출된 후보 화소들을 후보 결함 영역으로 형성하고, 각 후보 결함 영역에 대한 결함 가능성을 계산하여 결함 영역을 검출한다. 모의 TFT-LCD 영상을 생성하여 제안 방법의 타당성을 검증하고, 실제 TFT-LCD 영상에 적용함으로서 제안 알고리즘의 우수한 결함 검출 성능을 확인하였다.

In response to problems such as insufficient extraction information, low detection accuracy, and frequent misdetection in the field of Thangka image defects, this paper proposes a YOLOv5 prediction algorithm fused with the attention mechanism. Firstly, the Backbone network is used for feature extraction, and the attention mechanism is fused to represent different features, so that the network can fully extract the texture and semantic features of the defect area. The extracted features are then weighted and fused, so as to reduce the loss of information. Next, the weighted fused features are transferred to the Neck network, the semantic features and texture features of different layers are fused by FPN, and the defect target is located more accurately by PAN. In the detection network, the CIOU loss function is used to replace the GIOU loss function to locate the image defect area quickly and accurately, generate the bounding box, and predict the defect category. The results show that compared with the original network, YOLOv5-SE and YOLOv5-CBAM achieve an improvement of 8.95% and 12.87% in detection accuracy respectively. The improved networks can identify the location and category of defects more accurately, and greatly improve the accuracy of defect detection of Thangka images.

Aiming at the defect detection quality of denim fabric, this paper designs an improved algorithm based on the optimized Gabor filter. Firstly, we propose an improved defect detection algorithm of jean fabric based on the maximum two-dimensional image entropy and the loss evaluation function. Secondly, 24 Gabor filter banks with 4 scales and 6 directions are created and the optimal filter is selected from the filter banks by the one-dimensional image entropy algorithm and the two-dimensional image entropy algorithm respectively. Thirdly, these two optimized Gabor filters are compared to realize the common defect detection of denim fabric, such as normal texture, miss of weft, hole and oil stain. The results show that the improved algorithm has better detection effect on common defects of denim fabrics and the average detection rate is more than 91.25%.

TFT-LCD automatic defect inspection system for detecting defects in place of the visual tester does pre-processing, candidate defect pixel detection, and recognition and classification through a blob analysis. An over-detection result of defects acts as an undue burden of blob analysis for recognition and classification. In this paper, we propose defect detection method based on the histogram distribution modeling of TFT-LCD image to minimize over-detection of candidate defective pixels. Primary defect candidate pixels are detected estimating the skewness of the luminance distribution histogram of the background pixels. Based on the detected defect pixels, the defective pixels other than noise pixels are detected using the distribution histogram model of the local area. Experimental results confirm that the proposed method shows an excellent defect detection result on the image containing the various types of defects and the reduction of the degree of over-detection as well.

In this paper, we investigate the defect detection by making use of pre-made reference image data and classify the defects by using the artificial neural network. The approach is composed of three main parts. The first step consists of a proper generation of two reference image data by using a low level morphological technique. The second step proceeds by performing three times logical bit operations between two ready-made reference images and just captured image to be tested. This results in defects image only. In the third step, by extracting four features from each detected defect, followed by assigning them into the input nodes of an already trained artificial neural network we can obtain a defect class corresponding to the features. All of the image data are formed in a bit level for the reduction of data size as well as time saving. Experimental results show that proposed algorithms are found to be effective for flexible defect detection, robust classification, and high speed process by adopting a simple logic operation.
