To improve the precision of defect categorization and localization in images, this paper proposes an approach for detecting surface defects in hot-rolled steel strips. The approach uses an improved ...

Aluminum is widely used in many fields, such as infrastructure, transportation, aerospace, and industrial manufacturing 1. In the industrial aluminum production process, aluminum surface defects will ...

Researchers have designed a robust image-based anomaly detection (AD) framework with illumination enhancement and noise suppression features that can enhance the detection of subtle defects in ...

“Semiconductor lithography inspection requires reliable detection of small pattern defects such as bridge, burr, pinch, and contamination. In this study, we propose a two-stage vision-language ...

The novel method uses the YOLOv8 framework, integrating an attention mechanism and a transformer model. It was tested on a dataset of 4,500 electroluminescence images against several other models and ...

Two alumni of Greenwood High International School have secured first place in the poster competition at Purdue University's ...

What if manufacturing companies could pinpoint the exact cause of a defect the moment it occurs, preventing costly production delays and ensuring top-notch quality? Generative artificial intelligence ...

Detecting macro-defects early in the wafer processing flow is vital for yield and process improvement, and it is driving innovations in both inspection techniques and wafer test map analysis. At the ...
