Anomaly detection in formed sheet metals using convolutional autoencoders

Research output: Journal contributionsConference article in journalResearchpeer-review

Authors

Autoencoders are used to compress data and learn how to reliably reconstruct it. Through comparing the reconstruction error with a set threshold, they are able to detect anomalies in unseen datasets where the data does not quite match the reconstructed input samples. In this work, we attempt to investigate the use of convolutional autoencoders in the field of visual quality inspection, where images of formed sheet metals from a real production line are inspected for the occurrence of cracks and wrinkle formation. This approach tackles the problem of needing enough defective samples to attain reliable detection accuracies
