In this paper, a modified YOLOv3 net has been proposed for surface defect detection. Different from other pixel-level segmenting methods, YOLOv3 locates the regions of surface defects with bounding rectangles. Compared with conventional detectors, the operating efficiency of YOLOv3 is rather high without generating region proposals by sliding boxes. Although pixel-level details of defects are omitted in the process, the primary information of the location of detects and class labels are extracted by YOLOv3 with high accuracy. This information is sufficient for surface defect inspection, and computational efficiency has been improved, simultaneously. To further light the structure of YOLOv3, loss function optimization and pruning strategy have been adopted in the original YOLOv3. The pruning ratio is determined by the tradeoff between detecting accuracy and computational efficiency. In our experiments, we compared the performance of modified YOLOv3 with several state-of-the-art methods, and modified YOLOv3 achieves the best performance on six types of surface defects in DAGM 2007 dataset.

Image-based hair modeling methods enable artists to produce abundant 3D hair models. However, the reconstructed hair models could not preserve the structural details, such as uniformly distributed hair roots, interior strands growing in line with real distribution and exterior strands similar to images. In this paper, we propose a novel approach to construct a realistic 3D hair model from a hybrid orientation field. Our hybrid orientation field is generated from four fields. The first field makes the surface structure of a hairstyle be similar to the input images as much as possible. The second field makes the hair roots and interior hair strands be consistent with actual distribution. The tracing hair strands can be confined to the hair volume according to the third field. And the fourth field makes the growing direction of one point at a strand be compatible with its predecessor. To generate these fields, we construct high-confidence 3D strand segments from the orientation field of point cloud and 2D traced strands. Hair strands automatically grow from uniformly distributed hair roots according to the hybrid orientation field. We use energy minimization strategy to optimize the entire 3D hair model. We demonstrate that our approach can preserve structural details of 3D hair models.Keywords Image-based hair modeling · Hybrid orientation field · Fractional anisotropy · Preserving structural details · Tracing hair strand Electronic supplementary material The online version of this article (
