OCR of dot peen markings : with deep learning and image analysis

Edvartsen, Hannes January 2018 (has links)
A way to follow products through the chain of production is important in the process industry and it is often solved by marking them with serial numbers. In some cases permanent markings such as dot peen marking is required. To ensure profitability in the industry and reduce errors, these markings must be read automatically. Automatic reading of dot peen markings using a camera can be hard since there is low contrast between the background and the numbers, the background can be uneven and different illuminations can affect the visibility. In this work, two different systems are implemented and evaluated to assess the possibility of developing a robust system. One system uses image analysis to segment the numbers before classifying them. The other system uses the recent advances in deep learning for object detection. Both implementations are shown to work in near real-time on a cpu. The deep learning object detection approach was able to classify all numbers correct in a image 60% of the time, while the other approach only succeeded in 20% of the time.
