Abstract
Systems and processes for analyzing an image. Analyzing the image may comprise selecting a computer vision parameter for an image feature identification process. The image feature identification process may identify at least one feature in the image when using the computer vision parameter. Analyzing the image may further comprise segmenting the image into a region of interest T and a background region B. Analyzing the image may further comprise calculating a set of statistical values about the region of interest T of the image. Analyzing the image may further comprise classifying the image based on both the computer vision parameter and the set of statistical values as one of either: a defect containing image or a defect free image.
