Machine learning-based generation of rule-based classification recipes for inspection system

Abstract

Machine learning-based systems are described for automatically generating an inspection recipe that can be utilized when inspecting web materials, sheet parts or other products for defects. One example method for generating an inspection recipe includes assigning, by processing circuitry, a pseudo-label to each image of a plurality of images based on the content of the image and a labeling model, and storing the pseudo-labeled images in a second set of images; extracting, by the processing circuitry, one or more features from each image of the plurality of images, and storing the one or more features as a feature list for the image; generating, by the processing circuitry, a decision tree based on the second set of images and the feature lists of the second set of images; generating, by the processing circuitry, an inspection recipe based on the decision tree, the inspection recipe comprising a plurality of classification rules; and outputting the inspection recipe.
