Abstract:

During the production and processing of aluminum profiles, multiple types of surface defects such as unclear features and varying scales may generate. In response to the problems of low accuracy, poor real?time performance, and strong subjectivity in existing manual sampling method, an improved surface defects detection algorithm is proposed for aluminum profiles based on PP-PicoDet-XS.The SimAM attention was embedded in the backbone to enhance the ability of extracting deep effective features. The SIoU(Scylla intersection over union) loss function is used to optimize the training process to improve the positioning ability of the prediction boxes. The quantization and distillation were used to compress the model to improve the inference speed. The results show that the improved algorithm achieves a mean average precision of 98.93% at intersection over union(IoU) threshold of 0.5, and 57.60% across IoU thresholds ranging from 0.5 to 0.95, which is 1.73% and 4.13% higher than the uncompressed original model. Deploying this algorithm on the Snapdragon 865 mobile platform for inference, the inference speed can reach 116.82 frames per second, which is 47 frames per second higher than the uncompressed original model.
