       Estimation of defect tolerance.

       Provision of the driven command of mechanic components.

       Classification of defects (defect classification by AI algorithms).

       Reconstruction of a 3D image useful to enhance defect features.

      The post image processing modality allows prediction of the:

       Number of defects.

       Defect typologies according to the extraction of features (defect classification).

       Machine failures (predictive maintenance application).

       Pre‐filtering (image is adjusted by setting brightness, contrast, luminosity, background subtraction, red, green, and blue [RGB] filtering, and other parameters by optimizing noisy images for the post‐processing).

       Image segmentation extracting features such as geometries and shapes directly classifying product defects (different techniques can be applied for defect classification such as the thresholding method, region and edge detection‐based techniques, clustering‐based techniques, watershed‐based techniques, partial differential equation‐based approaches, morphological segmentation, and others); image segmentation techniques are applied also for radiometric images.

       Application of image post‐processing techniques based on AI algorithms classify defects enhancing hidden ones, by means of a training dataset structured by considering the specific defects associated with the production processes.

       Defect classification and defect counting phase enabling defect storage into the DB system.

       Defect detection enabling actuation processes by stopping or decelerating the machine in order to avoid further defective parts (the actuation process acts also to remove wrong pieces).

       Defect prediction estimated by AI algorithms able to process historical production data, collected into the DB and big data system improving the training model.

       Predictive maintenance of production machines analyzing and counting defective parts (the maintenance standard plan is modified by analyzing predictive maintenance results, thus decreasing drastically failure conditions).

       Quality improvement performed by analyzing simultaneously predictive maintenance results and process production mapping.

Schematic illustration of image processing and intelligent system in production processes.

      The AI algorithms can be applied directly on the image to process. In this way, the convolutional neural networks (CNNs) [47] represent a good approach for defect classification [48] and laser positioning in industrial applications [49]. The typology of features to extract by the AI algorithms or by traditional image vision are different and are a function of the defect to detect. For example, in electronic welding the defects are classified as [45]:

       Irregular welding geometries.

       Big/small welds.

       Non solder.

       Irregular layout patterns.

       Agglomerates (coupled welds).

       No welds made (detection by welds counting).

       Dirty welds.

       Excess/less deposited welding materials.

       Component missing.

       Component shift.

       Component lift.

       Generic component damage.

      Considering tire production industries, the defects are classified as:

       Tread/belt separations.

       Accumulation of contaminants in trapped areas (moisture, grease, oil, etc.).

       Snaked, wavy or off centered steel belts.

       Belt edge deformation (due to the anomalous mechanical stress).

       Interrupted layout patterns (crack identification, tire stretching).

       Swelled layout patters (contaminants accumulation).

       Misaligned patterns.

       Added edges on the basic patterns (contaminants accumulation).

       Different height of the elements constituting the patterns.

       Writing not correctly printed.

       Layout elements unified.

       Different agglomerated contaminant materials (inhomogeneous geometry characterized by different volumes).

       Misalignment between tire and wheel.

       Others.

      All these features are classified by particular image features extracted by image processing algorithms. Concerning the welding control of a large metallic surface as for tank production, IRT provides more information about weld homogeneity. Other algorithms, such as the K‐means clustering algorithm, are applied in order to enhance for example leakages [13], or in general for radiometric defect detection in photovoltaic systems [48].
