Abstract

Convolutional neural network (CNN)‐based approaches have recently led to major performance steps in visual recognition tasks. However, only a few industrial applications are described in the literature. In this paper, an object detection application for visual quality evaluation of X‐ray scatter grids is described and evaluated. To detect the small defects on the 4K input images, a sliding window approach is chosen. A special characteristic of the selected approach is the aggregation of overlapping prediction results by applying a 2D scalar field. The final system is able to detect 90% of the relevant defects, taking a precision score of 25% into account. A practical examination of the effectiveness elaborates the potential of the approach, improving the detection results of the inspection process by over 13%.
