Real-time surface grading of ceramic tiles

This thesis presents a case of study of the development and performance analysis of a surface grading application with real-time compliance.

We address the issue of spatial and temporal uniformity in the acquisition system. In a surface grading application it is crucial to ensure the uniform response of the system through time and space.

All the results presented for surface grading were obtained using real data from the ceramic tile industry. The VxC TSG database is public and can be accessed at www.disca.upv.es/vision/vxctsg.

We present a method based on soft colour-texture descriptors computed in perceptually uniform colour spaces. The method is parameterized and the involved factors are studied using two statistical procedures; experimental design and logistic regression. Although it is not a new theoretical contribution, we have found and demonstrate that a simple set of global colour and texture statistics, together with well-known classifiers, are powerful enough to meet stringent factory requirements for real-time and performance. Also the method is compared with two other approaches from the scientific literature; Colour Histograms and Centile-LBP.

Finally, we explore the method's capacity for on-line inspection in a study of real-time compliance and parallelization. / López García, F. (2005). Real-time surface grading of ceramic tiles [Tesis doctoral]. Universitat Politècnica de València. https://doi.org/10.4995/Thesis/10251/1909
