Abstract

In the register detection of printing field, a new approach based on Zernike-CNNs is proposed. The edge feature of image is extracted by Zernike moments (ZMs), and a recursive algorithm of ZMs called Kintner method is derived. An improved convolutional neural networks (CNNs) are investigated to improve the accuracy of classification. Based on the classic convolutional neural network (CNN), the improved CNNs adopt parallel CNN to enhance local features, and adopt auxiliary classification part to modify classification layer weights. A printed image is trained with 7 × 400 samples and tested with 7 × 100 samples, and then the method in this paper is compared with other methods. In image processing, Zernike is compared with Sobel method, Laplacian of Gaussian (LoG) method, Smallest Univalue Segment Assimilating Nucleus (SUSAN) method, Finite Impusle Response (FIR) method, Multi-scale Morphological Gradient (MMG) method. In image classification, improved CNNs are compared with classical CNN. The experimental results show that Zernike-CNNs have the best performance, the mean square error (MSE) of the training samples reaches 0.0143, and the detection accuracy of training samples and test samples reached 91.43% and 94.85% respectively. The experiments reveal that Zernike-CNNs are a feasible approach for register detection.
