Researchers have tested eight stand-alone deep learning methods for PV cell fault detection and have found that their accuracy was as high as 73%. All methods were trained and tested on the ELPV ...

Longitudinal (top) and axial (middle) images of X-Ray CT data of parts with 6 internal defects: a spherical clog, a stellated shaped clog, a cone shaped void, a blob shaped void, an elliptical warp of ...

Researchers have developed a new method for detecting defects in additively manufactured components. Researchers at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign have developed a new method for ...

Researchers have designed a robust image-based anomaly detection (AD) framework with illumination enhancement and noise suppression features that can enhance the detection of subtle defects in ...

Detecting sub-5nm defects creates huge challenges for chipmakers, challenges that have a direct impact on yield, reliability, and profitability. In addition to being smaller and harder to detect, ...

In industry, the detection of anomalies such as scratches, dents, and discolorations is crucial to ensure product quality and safety. However, conventional methods rely on heavy computational ...

Automated optical inspection (AOI) is a cornerstone in semiconductor manufacturing, assembly and testing facilities, and as such, it plays a crucial role in yield management and process control.
