Abstract
Tyre brand, its size, model, age and condition monitoring are critical for many vehicle users. The detection and the recognition of plastic components defects result essential. Image classification has become one of the key applications in image processing and computer vision domain. It has been used in several fields such as medical area and intelligent transportation. Recently, results of deep neural networks (DNN) foreshadow the advent of reliable classifiers to perform such visual tasks. DNNs require learning of many parameters from raw images; hence, several images with class annotations are needed. These images are very expensive since pixel-level annotations are required. In this paper, we introduce a deep learning approach to detect and classify five classes of plastic components defects. A novel dataset of tyre images is collected and the images are manually labelled. The experiments are conducted on this dataset by comparing the performances of three DNNs such as UNet, FPN and LinkNet. Results yield high values of F1-score and show the effectiveness and the suitability of the proposed approach.
