Abstract

Detecting irregularity in an image or video is an important task in quality control or automatic visual inspection. This paper presents an image embedding technique for detecting an irregularity or abnormality in images. This can further be utilized in image screening application. In the proposed architecture, deep adversarial autoencoder is trained to extract the features from images. Using these features and skip-gram model, we develop the image2vec architecture to capture contextual probability in an image. Various score aggregation techniques are explored and its performance is reported. As a case study, we present a scenario of foreign body object detection in clinical-grade X-ray images. The proposed approach is found to correctly detect and localize abnormality in images.
