Superpixel segmentation can benefit from the use of an appropriate method to measure edge strength. In this paper, we present such a method based on the first derivative of anisotropic Gaussian kernels. The kernels can capture the position, direction, prominence, and scale of the edge to be detected. We incorporate the anisotropic edge strength into the distance measure between neighboring superpixels, thereby improving the performance of an existing graph-based superpixel segmentation method. Experimental results validate the superiority of our method in generating superpixels over the competing methods. It is also illustrated that the proposed superpixel segmentation method can facilitate subsequent saliency detection.

Abstract In order to accurately detect the abnormal looseness of strapping in the process of steel coil hoisting, an accurate detection method of strapping abnormality based on CCD structured light active imaging is proposed. Firstly, a maximum entropy laser stripe automatic segmentation model integrating multi-scale saliency features is constructed. With the help of saliency detection model, the purpose is to reduce the interference of the environment to the laser stripe and highlight the distinguishability between the stripe and the background. Then, the maximum entropy is used to segment the fused saliency features and accurately extract the stripe contour. Finally, the stripe normal field is obtained by calculating the stripe gradient vector, the stripe center line is extracted based on the stripe distribution normal direction, and the abnormal strapping is recognized online according to the stripe center. Experiments show that the proposed method is effective in terms of detection accuracy and time efficiency, and has certain engineering application value.

Surface defect segmentation supports real-time surface defect detection system of steel sheet by reducing redundant information and highlighting the critical defect regions for high-level image understanding. Existing defect segmentation methods usually lack adaptiveness to different shape, size and scale of the defect object. Based on the observation that the defective area can be regarded as the salient part of image, a saliency detection model using double low-rank and sparse decomposition (DLRSD) is proposed for surface defect segmentation. The proposed method adopts a low-rank assumption which characterizes the defective sub-regions and defect-free background sub-regions respectively. In addition, DLRSD model uses sparse constrains for background sub-regions so as to improve the robustness to noise and uneven illumination simultaneously. Then the Laplacian regularization among spatially adjacent sub-regions is incorporated into the DLRSD model in order to uniformly highlight the defect object. Our proposed DLRSD-based segmentation method consists of three steps: firstly, using DLRSD model to obtain the defect foreground image; then, enhancing the foreground image to establish the good foundation for segmentation; finally, the Otsu’s method is used to choose an optimal threshold automatically for segmentation. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method outperforms state-of-the-art approaches in terms of both subjective and objective tests. Meanwhile, the proposed method is applicable to industrial detection with limited computational resources.

In this paper, frequency spectrum of infrasound signal collected was analyzed based on MATLAB. The infrasound power level of change with frequency distribution and the infrasound harmonic of each frequency component of the sound pressure amplitude can be made up judgment visually by frequency spectrum analysis and amplitude spectrum analysis, and thus we can obtain different conditions of infrasound properties scientifically and quantitatively.

Surface defects affect the quality and safety of oil seals. It is a challenge to detect such defects in a vision system because of the unequal reflection property of oil seal surfaces and low contrast between the defect and the background. This article proposes a visual detection method (VDM) for oil seal surface defects and outlines two key issues of VDMs. First, we present a superpixel segmentation algorithm based on the significant gray level variation in the radial direction of an oil seal surface image. This image is then divided into several ring belts. Subsequently, considering the reflection inequality and low contrast, we propose a new circumferential background difference algorithm based on the small variation along the circumferential direction of the image. This algorithm eliminates the influence of the reflection inequality and improves the contrast distinction between the defects and the background. The experimental results verify the effectiveness of the proposed method with a recall and precision as high as 95.2% and 86.8%, respectively.
