3. 2. Applying Machine Learning Techniques for Anomaly Detection in Wooden Plank Images

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Avdelningen Vi3

   Author : Iza Smedberg; [2023]
   Keywords : Anomaly Detection; Machine Vision; Machine Learning; Neural Network;

   Abstract : Anomaly detection is an important first step of quality control in manufacturing processes. In wooden planks, anomalies such as broken knots and resin pockets can lower the quality of the final product. With the help of machine vision, inspections can be made faster, at higher accuracy, and at a lower cost. READ MORE
