Abstract

With the development of Industry 4.0, real-time industrial inspection has been widely focused. Steel is a critical material, and steel surface defect recognition is of great significance to the production in plants. However, defect recognition models are usually based on deep learning methods, which leads to long training time and high hardware requirements. Hence, this article proposes a novel recognition scheme for steel surface defects based on Broad Learning System (BLS). This model takes the image features extracted by the convolutional neural network as input data and inherits the advantages of the BLS, which can classify images quickly. The results indicate that the new method outperforms both the original BLS and several mainstream algorithms.
