EACP surface macrotexture is characterized by the MTD and exposed aggregate number (EAN) due to a higher correlation between wavelength and the EAN. Normally, the EAN is manually estimated which needs much human effort and is time-consuming. Recently, deep learning of computer vision has been employed for aiding human counting tasks in different condition. Mostly, many state-of-the-arts for counting are conducted by using RGB image which is color image. Regarding the counting techniques used for EAN, it is a challenging task to deal with some issues such as aggregate is some occluded and similar coloring to the background. Because the aggregate shows the peak characteristic, the depth value may benefit in improving the recognition. This additional information may be useful since it can be display distinguishable color between the object and background. Therefore, this study aims to evaluate the combination of RGB image and depth information, knowns as RGB-D image, for counting the EAN by adapted Faster RCNN deep learning model with four channel input images. The RGB-D dataset was newly constructed for training and testing implemented model. The result shows the accuracy slightly improve by 5% by using RGB-D compared to RGB. However, they both achieve similar MAE and RMSE. Therefore, it gives the valuable information for EAN counting. Both image datasets are acceptable for counting the EAN with a given condition.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":655,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Nondestructive Evaluation","volume":"44 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-12-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142789322","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Traditional defect detection algorithms and convolutional neural networks are prone to texture interference in the defect detection of complex textured ceramic tiles, resulting in high false detection rates and missed detection rates. Inspired by the human eye’s ability to find surface defects on smooth objects against a high-light background, this paper proposes a new method for detecting surface defects of complex textured tiles. This method uses the high-light area generated by the reflection of the light source as the background for detecting textured tile defects, thereby increasing the threshold difference between the defect and the background and highlighting the defect. This method translates the position of the textured tiles horizontally and captures images while the reflection of the strip light source covering the surface of the tiles is in motion, thereby acquiring several tile images with light source reflections. Subsequently, after intercepting the images of the highlight areas covered by the light source reflection, the RANSAC algorithm is used to match the characteristic corners of these images, and after rigid splicing, a complete image of the textured tiles with the highlight area as the background is obtained. Finally, defects on textured tiles can be extracted through threshold segmentation and morphological filtering. Experimental results indicate that this method can ignore complex texture interference on ceramic tiles and achieve rapid detection of defects in textured ceramic tiles.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":655,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Nondestructive Evaluation","volume":"44 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-12-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142778299","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Visual inspection of wheat species has drawbacks, including inconsistency, low throughput, and labor intensiveness. In this study, near-infrared hyperspectral imaging (NIR-HSI) was utilized in conjunction with a deep learning approach to achieve precise predictions of wheat at the species level. A dataset comprising 40 different varieties from four Indian wheat species, namely <i>Triticum aestivum</i> (<i>T. aestivum</i>), <i>Triticum durum</i> (<i>T. durum</i>), <i>Triticum dicocccum</i> (<i>T. dicoccum</i>), and <i>Triticale</i>, was prepared using a NIR-HSI system that encompassed the wavelength ranging from 900–1700 nm. The imbalanced dataset is a common problem in the classification task, making it harder for the classifier to classify minority class data correctly. To address this issue, oversampling techniques such as Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique (SMOTE) and Adaptive Synthetic sampling (ADASYN) were employed. For the classification task, a 1D Convolutional Neural Network (1D-CNN), a 1D-ResNet, and four traditional machine learning models: Naive Bayes (NB), K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN), Random Forest (RF), and Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) are utilized and compared. The performance of these models was assessed using both imbalanced and balanced datasets. The 1D-CNN model outperformed traditional machine learning models, achieving impressive test accuracies of 98.25% and 98.43% with the SMOTE and ADASYN approach, respectively. These findings underscore the efficacy of NIR-HSI in conjunction with an end-to-end 1D-CNN and oversampling techniques as a reliable and efficient method for the rapid, accurate, and nondestructive identification of various wheat species.

The generation of EMR signals in hydrated samples is primarily driven by the accelerated motion of charged particles through the pore spaces and the time-dependent variation in dipole moments formed at the electrical double layer. As the hydration (curing) progresses, there is a noticeable decrease in EMR voltage, average EMR energy release rate, and dominant frequency. However, these EMR parameters exhibit an increasing trend with the application of higher mechanical impact energy. It was further observed that as hydration advances, the non-evaporable water content and degree of hydration increase, whereas the evaporable water content decreases. Additionally, EMR voltage recorded after fracture was consistently lower than that measured before fracture across all curing days, indicating that crack formation during repetitive loading suppresses EMR emissions. This suggests that cracks formed in the cement-mortar do not facilitate EMR generation. Moreover, the study found an inverse relationship between impact-dependent mechanical parameters and EMR voltage, highlighting that as mechanical resistance to impact increases, EMR voltage decreases. These findings suggest that the EMR technique has significant potential for non-contact, early-age monitoring of civil structures, providing critical insights into their mechanical integrity and performance under load.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":655,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Nondestructive Evaluation","volume":"44 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-11-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142598923","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
