Abstract

The fine cracks on the workpiece surface are the significant potential hazard to safety of industrial production process. In order to identify fine cracks on the workpiece surface, an improved SSD (Single Shot MultiBox Detector) algorithm is built in this paper and applied to detect fine cracks. Based on the SSD network, the dilated convolution module is proposed in the convolutional operation to ensure access to global feature and by reducing the pooling layer treatment. In order to achieve the effective cracks detection, the cracks images are divided into two cases: obvious bold cracks and vague fine cracks, and mark them respectively. The obvious bold cracks are marked as "neg" and detected by SSD network framework, while the vague fine cracks are marked as "crack" and detected by SSD network with reduced pooling layer. This improvement is helpful to increase the detection accuracy of fine cracks. In this paper, the actual crack images are used to verify the improved algorithm. Results show that under the training and testing with workpiece crack data set, the improved algorithm can effectively detect fine cracks such that the detection precision toward the number of cracks in the image is higher than 80%. The aforementioned algorithms present potential application for the detection of fine cracks.
