The quality detection of the cold-strip steel using artificial neural networks is studied. A simple Back-propagation (BP) algorithm based on error function was presented. It deals with the saturation areas that play a significant role in the slow convergence of standard BP algorithm. A modified error function was constructed to make the weight adjustment to avoid falling into the saturation areas. The simulation and experiment results show the effect of improved BP algorithm on the classification of the surface defects of steel strip.
