Viewed from another perspective, the present invention further provides a method for detecting line segment defects of a panel, which is suitable for determining whether line segment defects exist on a panel to be detected. The method comprises the steps of shooting a panel to be detected to obtain an initial image, and capturing an image of the panel to be detected corresponding to the panel to be detected from the initial image; then, by first obtaining sample data stored in advance, setting an image on the panel image to be detected, which corresponds to the position of the sample line segment, as an image of the line segment to be detected according to the position of the sample line segment included in the sample data; finally, the image of the segment to be detected is checked by utilizing a neural network classification program to judge whether the segment to be detected has segment defects.

In one embodiment, when the neural network program determines that a line segment defect exists in a portion of a line segment to be detected included in the input image sub-block, the type of the line segment defect and the position of the image sub-block including the line segment defect are further reported.
In one embodiment, before the panel under test is photographed to obtain the initial image, the following steps are further performed: finding at least one existing line segment from each of a plurality of ideal sample panel images; dividing the existing line segments into a plurality of position groups according to the positions of the found existing line segments, wherein each position group comprises at least one existing line segment; averaging the positions of the existing line segments in each position group to obtain a corresponding average result; and storing each averaged result as a portion of the sample segment position.

Detailed Description
Referring to fig. 1 and fig. 2, fig. 1 is an external view of an apparatus for detecting panel line segment defects according to an embodiment of the present invention, and fig. 2 is a circuit block diagram of the apparatus for detecting panel line segment defects shown in fig. 1. In the embodiment, the apparatus 10 includes an image capturing device 100, a processing device 110 and a sample storage device 120, wherein the processing device 110 is electrically connected to the image capturing device 100 and the sample storage device 120 respectively, so that the processing device 110 can perform data transmission with the image capturing device 100 and the sample storage device 120 respectively.
In order to make the operation of the apparatus 10 more clearly understood by those skilled in the art, the following description is made in conjunction with fig. 1, fig. 2 and fig. 3, wherein fig. 3 is a flowchart of a method for detecting a panel line segment defect according to an embodiment of the present invention.
As shown in fig. 1, the shooting area 155 is the range that can be covered by the image capturing apparatus 100 during shooting, and the panel 130 to be tested is placed in the shooting area 155. Before actually detecting the panel line segment defect, the processing device 110 or other suitable control device may be controlled by a predetermined control program to operate the image capturing device 100 to capture the image of the capturing area 155, so as to obtain an image (hereinafter referred to as an initial image) of the entire capturing area 155 (step S300). It should be noted that although the size of the capturing region 155 is larger than the size of the panel 130, in the embodiment, the size of the capturing region 155 may be smaller than the size of the panel 130, and the entire image of the panel 130 may be obtained by moving the position of the panel 130 or the image capturing apparatus 100 and performing multiple capturing.
The initial image captured by the image capturing device 100 is transmitted to the processing device 110 for further processing. After acquiring the initial image from the image acquisition device 100, the processing device 110 then acquires a portion corresponding to the panel under test 130 from the initial image to obtain a panel under test image (step S302). Taking the embodiment shown in fig. 1 as an example, since the size of the photographing region 155 is larger than that of the panel 130 to be tested, there exists an image other than the panel 130 to be tested in the initial image. In such a situation, the processing device 110 may perform an image processing related procedure (e.g., a neural network procedure U-Net or other procedures) to remove an image portion that is not the panel under test 130 or extract an image portion related to the panel under test 130 to finally generate a panel under test image. In another embodiment, if the size of the capture area 155 is smaller than the size of the panel 130 to be tested, the processing device 110 may also combine a plurality of initial images by performing a related procedure of image processing to generate a panel image to be tested required for subsequent processing.
In addition to the pre-processing procedure, the processing device 110 obtains the sample data 125 stored in advance in the sample storage device 120 (step S304). It can be seen that the sample data 125 should be established before the line segment defect is actually detected. In order to create the sample data 125, the processing device 110 must first collect information about the location of the line segment to be detected. Referring to fig. 4A and 5 together, fig. 4A is a schematic diagram of an ideal sample panel image used according to an embodiment of the invention, and fig. 5 is a flowchart of establishing sample data according to an embodiment of the invention. An ideal sample panel image corresponding to the ideal sample panel can be obtained by controlling the image capturing apparatus 100 to capture an ideal sample panel and performing the above steps S300 and S302 (step S500). In the present embodiment, the ideal sample panel image 40 shown in fig. 4A includes a plurality of pixels, and the plane thereof is formed by extending from the X axis (hereinafter, also referred to as the first axis direction) and the Y axis (hereinafter, also referred to as the second axis direction). By the image processing technique, the processing device 110 can find the existing line segments 400, 402, 404 and 406 extending along the Y axis and the existing line segments 410, 412 and 414 extending along the X axis from the ideal sample panel image 40 (step S502). The position information of the existing line segments 400-414 found in step S502 can be directly used for subsequent processing, or, as shown in fig. 5, after an ideal sample panel image is subjected to image processing and the position information of the corresponding existing line segment is found, it can be further determined whether or not further ideal sample panel images need to be obtained (step S504). If other ideal sample panel images need to be obtained, the processing device 110 will repeat steps S500-S502 again to obtain the position information of another set of existing line segments. On the other hand, if it is not necessary to obtain another ideal sample panel image, the processing device 110 proceeds to step S506 with the position information of all existing line segments and continues the subsequent processing.
It should be noted that although the existing line segment can be found in step S502 by manual marking, the present invention proposes to improve the process of finding the existing line segment automatically. In order to find the existing line segments without relying on human labor, in one embodiment, the processing device 110 may first binarize the image values of the pixels in the ideal sample panel image, i.e., adjust the ideal sample panel image that originally exhibits gray scale or color during shooting to an image with only black and white colors. Next, the processing device 110 starts to calculate the number of pixels representing the color (e.g., black) of the existing line segment appearing on the same X-axis coordinate (hereinafter referred to as a first calculated number), and the number of pixels representing the color (e.g., black) of the existing line segment appearing on the same Y-axis coordinate (hereinafter referred to as a second calculated number). For example, referring to fig. 4B, the horizontal axis represents the coordinate value of the X axis, and the vertical axis represents the number n of black pixels, so that the heights of the four straight lines from left to right in fig. 4B represent the number of black pixels of the existing line segment 400, the number of black pixels of the existing line segment 402, the number of black pixels of the existing line segment 404, and the number of black pixels of the existing line segment 406, respectively; referring to fig. 4C, the horizontal axis represents the coordinate value of the Y axis, and the vertical axis represents the number n of black pixels, so that the heights of the three straight lines from left to right in fig. 4C represent the number of black pixels of the existing line segment 414, the number of black pixels of the existing line segment 412, and the number of black pixels of the existing line segment 410, respectively.
In the embodiment shown in FIG. 4A, for each X-axis coordinate except the positions of the existing line segments 400-406, the black pixels existing due to the existing line segments 410-414 may be calculated, and the black pixels generated due to the camera distortion or the image processing misjudgment may also be calculated, so that the portions of the existing line segments not extending along the Y-axis must be excluded after obtaining the first calculated number corresponding to each X-axis coordinate in FIG. 4B. Thus, a preset value (hereinafter referred to as a first preset value) may be set in advance and only the coordinates where the first calculated number exceeds the first preset value may be set as the positions where existing line segments exist. Similarly, for each Y-axis coordinate except the positions of the existing line segments 410-414, the black pixels existing due to the existing line segments 400-406 may be calculated, and the black pixels generated due to the camera distortion or the image processing misjudgment may also be calculated, so that the portions of the existing line segments not extending along the X-axis must be excluded after the second calculated number corresponding to each Y-axis coordinate in FIG. 4C is obtained. Then, it is also possible to previously set a preset value (hereinafter referred to as a second preset value) and set only the coordinates where the second calculated number exceeds the second preset value as the positions where existing line segments exist.
Through the method, the process of searching the existing line segments can be automated, and the labor consumption is reduced.
Please refer back to fig. 5. After the operations of steps S500 to S504, the processing device 110 first groups existing line segments obtained from the same ideal sample panel image in step S506. When grouping, the processing device 110 classifies different existing line segments into different Position groups (Position groups). For example, as mentioned above, the existing line segments 400-414 can be obtained from the ideal sample panel image 40, and thus the processing device 110 classifies the different existing line segments 400-414 into different position groups, for example, the existing line segment 400 is classified into a first position group, the existing line segment 402 is classified into a second position group, the existing line segment 404 is classified into a third position group, the existing line segment 406 is classified into a fourth position group, the existing line segment 410 is classified into a fifth position group, the existing line segment 412 is classified into a sixth position group, and the existing line segment 414 is classified into a seventh position group. The positions included in each position group may include positions within a predetermined range from the existing line segments, in addition to the positions of the existing line segments. For example, the first position group may include a section extending from the leftmost end of the ideal sample panel image 40 all the way to the right to the section covered at the center line between the existing line segment 400 and the existing line segment 402; the second group of locations may include a range extending from the centerline between the existing line segment 400 and the existing line segment 402 all the way to the right to the centerline between the existing line segment 402 and the existing line segment 404; a third group of locations may include a region extending from the centerline between the existing line segment 402 and the existing line segment 404 all the way to the right to the region encompassed by the centerline between the existing line segment 404 and the existing line segment 406; the fourth group of positions may include a range extending from the centerline between the existing line segment 404 and the existing line segment 406 all the way to the right of the rightmost end of the ideal sample panel image 40. Similarly, the fifth position group may include a region extending from the top of the ideal sample panel image 40 all the way down to the center line between the existing line segment 410 and the existing line segment 412; the sixth group of positions may include an interval extending straight down from the midline between the existing line segment 410 and the existing line segment 412 to the extent covered at the midline between the existing line segment 412 and the existing line segment 414; the seventh group of locations may include the interval extending from the centerline between the existing line segment 412 and the existing line segment 414 all the way down to the lowermost end of the ideal sample panel image 40.
It should be noted that the size of the segment covered by each position group may be defined in other ways, for example, a segment including 10 pixels near the position of each existing line segment, and the like, which can be adjusted by those skilled in the art as required.
Next, when there is only one ideal sample panel image for which the operation of step S506 is required, the processing device 110 may carry the information on each position group (the position of the existing line segment in each position group) obtained at this time into step S508 and perform the subsequent processing. In contrast, if there are many ideal sample panel images that require the operation of step S506, the processing device 110 needs to perform the above-mentioned classification operation once for each of the different ideal sample panel images. As known to those skilled in the art, since different ideal sample panel images obtained by photographing each of a plurality of ideal sample panels are to be processed, it is expected that corresponding existing line segments in these ideal sample panel images should fall at approximate positions. For example, an existing line segment 400 found in the first ideal sample panel image would theoretically appear in the same location as an existing line segment 400 found in the second ideal sample panel image; even in view of possible errors in the image processing, the existing line segments 400 found in the first ideal sample panel image should not be too far apart from the existing line segments 400 found in the second ideal sample panel image. Therefore, after performing the aforementioned Position Group classification on each ideal sample panel image, the processing device 110 may classify Position groups that are close to each other and obtained from different ideal sample panel images into the same Position Group (Position Group Set).
In various embodiments, the processing device 110 may employ any suitable classification criteria to classify the different location groups into the same location group, for example, to compare the coverage of the first location group of the first ideal sample panel image with the coverage of the first to fourth location groups of the second ideal sample panel image that also include the existing line segment extending along the Y-axis, and to classify the location group of the second ideal sample panel image that overlaps most with the coverage of the first location group of the first ideal sample panel image into the same location group as the first location group of the first ideal sample panel image. Similar operations are also applied to each position group of each ideal sample panel image in step S506 to thereby divide the existing line segments into a plurality of position groups.
After the processing of step S506, each position group includes at least one existing line segment. Next, the processing device 110 averages the positions of the existing line segments in each position group in step S508 to obtain the corresponding average result (if there is only one existing line segment, the average result is naturally the position of the existing line segment), and stores the obtained average result in the sample data 125 so that each average result becomes a sample line segment position or a part of the sample data 125 (step S510). It is obvious that when the average result has only one (i.e. only one position group), the sample segment position (or the sample data 125) has only one content; when the average result has N, the sample segment position (or the sample data 125) has N contents.
Referring back to fig. 3, after the sample data 125 obtained through the operation flow of fig. 5 is obtained, the processing device 110 sets the position specified by each content corresponding to the sample segment position in the panel image to be measured and the image block within the specific distance adjacent to the position specified by the content to be measured to be an image of a corresponding segment to be measured according to the sample data 125 (step S306). After obtaining the images of the segments to be detected, the processing device 110 may input the image of each segment to be detected into the neural network classifier 115 (for example, but not limited to, the neural network program MobileNetV2) to determine whether there is a specific segment defect in the image of each segment to be detected by the neural network classifier 115 (step S308).
The neural network classifier 115 should be trained before the line segment flaw is determined. Once the neural network classifier 115 is able to complete the determination training for some types of line segment defects (e.g., line width variation, holes, line breaks, etc.), after the image of the line segment to be detected is input into the neural network classifier 115, the neural network classifier 115 can determine whether the line segment to be detected has these specific types of line segment defects according to a fixed standard.
It should be noted that the aforementioned image of the line segment to be measured is not limited to be completely input into the neural network classification program 115. In various embodiments, the processing device 110 may also divide the image block including the line segment to be detected into a plurality of image sub-blocks, and use each image sub-block as the input data of the neural network classification program 115 so that the neural network classification program 115 can analyze the one image sub-block, thereby determining whether there is a specific line segment defect in the portion of the line segment to be detected included in the one image sub-block. FIG. 6 is a diagram illustrating an image block including a line segment to be measured divided into a plurality of image sub-blocks according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 6, the panel image 60 to be measured includes a plurality of line segments 600, 602, 604, 606, 610, 612, and 614, and the processing device 110 can divide the image block including the line segment to be measured into a plurality of image sub-blocks, which are only exemplified by the line segments 602 and 612. As shown in fig. 6, the processing device 110 can divide the image block including the line segment to be measured 602 into a plurality of image sub-blocks 602-1, 602-2,. and 602-N, and divide the image block including the line segment to be measured 612 into a plurality of image sub-blocks 612-1, 612-2,. and 612-M (each block is shown by a dotted line in the figure). When the processing device 110 determines that there is a specific line defect in the portion of the line segments to be measured included in an image sub-block by using the neural network classification program 115, the type of the line defect and the position of the image sub-block including the line defect may be reported for subsequent handling. For example, if the processing device 110 reports that there is a broken line defect at the position of the image sub-block 612-6 (not shown), the line segment at the position of the image sub-block 612-6 in the panel to be tested can be repaired by laser, so as to improve the yield of the panel. It can be understood by those skilled in the art that in the embodiment of using the image sub-blocks as the input data of the neural network classification program 115, when training the neural network classification program 115, it is necessary to train the received image sub-blocks (instead of the image of the entire line segment to be measured) as the input data, and each image sub-block as the input data of the neural network classification program 115 must be scaled to the same image size, which is not described herein again.
As can be seen from the above description, the present invention has the capability of automatically determining line segment defects.
Referring again to fig. 1, the apparatus 10 may further include an illumination device 140. In the present embodiment, the illumination device 140 and the image capturing device 100 are respectively disposed on two opposite sides of the panel 130 to be tested and project light toward the panel 130 to be tested. Further, in order to reduce the image problem caused by the external light, in the embodiment shown in fig. 7, an opaque sealing partition 700 is further used to combine an opaque region capable of enclosing the image capturing apparatus 100, the panel 130 to be measured and the illumination apparatus 140 shown in fig. 1. In this way, since the light used by the image capturing device 100 is only the light provided by the illumination device 140, the problem caused by the interference of the external light and shadow change on the image can be greatly reduced when the device 70 is used to determine the line segment defect.
In summary, the apparatus and method for detecting panel line segment defects provided in the above disclosure can automatically locate the position of the panel line segment to be detected on the panel through the image of the panel, and further send the located image of the panel line segment to the neural network classification program to determine whether there is a defect in the panel line segment through the neural network classification program trained in advance. Therefore, the technology provided by the invention not only can reduce the manpower required for judging the defects, but also can reduce the problem of uneven panel quality caused by different manual inspection standards.
The above description is only for the preferred embodiment of the present invention, and it is not intended to limit the scope of the present invention, and any person skilled in the art can make further modifications and variations without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, therefore, the scope of the present invention should be determined by the claims of the present application.
