PCB CT Image Element Segmentation Model Optimizing the Semantic Perception of Connectivity Relationship

Computed Tomography(CT)is a commonly used technology in Printed Circuit Boards(PCB)non-destructive testing,and element segmentation of CT images is a key subsequent step.With the development of deep learning,researchers began to exploit the“pre-training and fine-tuning”training process for multi-element segmentation,reducing the time spent on manual annotation.However,the existing element segmentation model only focuses on the overall accuracy at the pixel level,ignoring whether the element connectivity relationship can be correctly identified.To this end,this paper proposes a PCB CT image element segmentation model optimizing the semantic perception of connectivity relationship(OSPC-seg).The overall training process adopts a“pre-training and fine-tuning”training process.A loss function that optimizes the semantic perception of circuit connectivity relationship(OSPC Loss)is designed from the aspect of alleviating the class imbalance problem and improving the correct connectivity rate.Also,the correct connectivity rate index(CCR)is proposed to evaluate the model’s connectivity relationship recognition capabilities.Experiments show that mIoU and CCR of OSPC-seg on our datasets are 90.1%and 97.0%,improved by 1.5%and 1.6%respectively compared with the baseline model.From visualization results,it can be seen that the segmentation performance of connection positions is significantly improved,which also demonstrates the effectiveness of OSPC-seg.

Comparative analysis of different methods for image enhancement

Image enhancement technology plays a very important role to improve image quality in image processing. By enhancing some information and restraining other information selectively, it can improve image visual effect. The objective of this work is to implement the image enhancement to gray scale images using different techniques. After the fundamental methods of image enhancement processing are demonstrated, image enhancement algorithms based on space and frequency domains are systematically investigated and compared. The advantage and defect of the above-mentioned algorithms are analyzed. The algorithms of wavelet based image enhancement are also deduced and generalized. Wavelet transform modulus maxima(WTMM) is a method for detecting the fractal dimension of a signal, it is well used for image enhancement. The image techniques are compared by using the mean(μ),standard deviation(?), mean square error(MSE) and PSNR(peak signal to noise ratio). A group of experimental results demonstrate that the image enhancement algorithm based on wavelet transform is effective for image de-noising and enhancement. Wavelet transform modulus maxima method is one of the best methods for image enhancement.

Masked Vision-language Transformer in Fashion

We present a masked vision-language transformer(MVLT)for fashion-specific multi-modal representation.Technically,we simply utilize the vision transformer architecture for replacing the bidirectional encoder representations from Transformers(BERT)in the pre-training model,making MVLT the first end-to-end framework for the fashion domain.Besides,we designed masked image reconstruction(MIR)for a fine-grained understanding of fashion.MVLT is an extensible and convenient architecture that admits raw multimodal inputs without extra pre-processing models(e.g.,ResNet),implicitly modeling the vision-language alignments.More importantly,MVLT can easily generalize to various matching and generative tasks.Experimental results show obvious improvements in retrieval(rank@5:17%)and recognition(accuracy:3%)tasks over the Fashion-Gen 2018 winner,Kaleido-BERT.The code is available at https://github.com/GewelsJI/MVLT.
