Abstract
Ceramic tiles are controlled to detect surface defects after production because many defects may occur on their surface in the production. The detection of ceramic tile surface defects is usually performed by human observations in most factories. In this paper, an image processing method was proposed to detect the defects. In the proposed method, first the user selects the homogenous region in the image. Then the gradient based image processing algorithm is applied. We conducted our study using simulated and real images to which we applied the conventional image processing methods and our proposed method. The results show that our proposed method has better defect detection performance.
