The aluminum plate surface defects recognition method of BP neural network is studied based on target detection .In order to detect the defects, the target image is binaried by adaptive threshold method. After binarizing the target image, three kinds of image feature, including geometric feature, grayscale feature and shape feature, are extracted from the target image and its corresponding binary image. The defects classification model based on back-propagation neural network utilizes three layers neural network structure model and the hyperbolic tangent function of S function as the activation function, the number of neurons in hidden layer is confirmed by experiments. The experimental results show that the classification accuracy of BP neural network classification model as high as 94%, this can meet our requirements.

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.

The time–frequency analysis by smooth Pseudo-Wigner-Ville distribution (SPWVD) is utilized for the double-line laser ultrasonic signal processing, and the effective detection of the metal surface defect is achieved. The double-line source laser is adopted for achieving more defects information. The simulation model by using finite element method is established in a steel plate with three typical metal surface defects (i.e. crack, air hole and surface scratch) in detail. Besides, in order to improve the time resolution and frequency resolution of the signal, the SPWVD method is mainly used. In addition, the deep learning defect classification model based on VGG convolutional neural network (CNN) is set up, also, the data enhancement method is adopted to extend training data and improve the defects detection properties. The results show that, for different types of metal surface defects with sub-millimeter size, the classification accuracy of crack, air holes and scratch surface are 94.6%, 94% and 94.6%, respectively. The SPWVD and CNN algorithm for processing the laser ultrasonic signal and defects classification supplies a useful way to get the defect information, which is helpful for the ultrasonic signal processing and material evaluation.

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.

An extraction method based on invariance geometric feature is proposed in this paper. This method extracts two types of feature from the object in an image. One type is five invariance statistical features of edge distance. The other is two invariance shape features: rectangular similarity feature and circular similarity feature. Moreover, this proposed method is used to extract defect features for steel plate surface. Its performance is tested in scale and rotation invariance and defects classification. Experimental results show that the novel geometric features have the ability of invariance and can improve the accuracy of classification.

This paper presents a new calibration method for binocular vision system, based on CPSO-BP neural network. Firstly, the training set of the back propagation (BP) neural network is formed by the image feature point extracted from the binocular vision system. Then the cooperate particle swarm optimization (CPSO) algorithm is introduced to optimize the weights of the BP neural network, making the network with a stronger ability of the global optimization. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed CPSO-BP-based algorithm has a higher calibration precision than the traditional BP-based calibration method.

The Back Propagation (BP) neural network was used for the construction of the hailstone classifier. Firstly, the database of the radar image feature was constructed. Through the image processing, the color, texture, shape and other dimensional features should be extracted and saved as the characteristic database to provide data support for the follow-up work. Secondly, Through the BP neural network, a machine for hail classifications can be built to achieve the hail samples auto-classification.
