Abstract

In this paper we present a new approach for the detection of defects in random colour textures. This approach is based on the use of the T2 statistic and it is derived from the MIA strategy (Multivariate Image Analysis) developed in recent years in the field of applied statistics. PCA analysis is used to extract a reference eigenspace from a matrix built by unfolding the RGB raw data of defect-free images. The unfolding is performed compiling colour and spatial information of pixels. New testing images are also unfolded and projected onto the reference eigenspace obtaining a score matrix used to compute the T2 images. These images are converted into defect maps which allow the location of defective pixels. Only very few samples are needed to perform unsupervised training. With regard to literature, the method uses one of the simplest approaches providing low computational costs.
