Resumen
Fabric defect detection is very important in the textile quality process. Current deep learning algorithms are not effective in detecting tiny and extreme aspect ratio fabric defects. In this paper, we proposed a strong detection method, Priori Anchor Convolutional Neural Network (PRAN-Net), for fabric defect detection to improve the detection and location accuracy of fabric defects and decrease the inspection time. First, we used Feature Pyramid Network (FPN) by selected multi-scale feature maps to reserve more detailed information of tiny defects. Secondly, we proposed a trick to generate sparse priori anchors based on fabric defects ground truth boxes instead of fixed anchors to locate extreme defects more accurately and efficiently. Finally, a classification network is used to classify and refine the position of the fabric defects. The method was validated on two self-made fabric datasets. Experimental results indicate that our method significantly improved the accuracy and efficiency of detecting fabric defects and is more suitable to the automatic fabric defect detection.
