PCB component recognition with semi-supervised image clustering [Yari-gözetimli görüntü kümeleme ile baskili devre karti bileşeni tanima]

Abstract

Classification of surface mounted devices plays an important role on automated inspection systems of printed component board production. Limited number of publicly available datasets which the components are labeled and high intraclass variance in these datasets causes the supervised approches to be inefficient. In this study a deep learning method, enhanced with an unsupervised clustering system, which uses a small set of labeled data is proposed. The method compared with the current studies and the supervised systems. Most optimized setting reached high accuracy results by outrunning current classification methods. © 2021 IEEE.
