摘要

The weld pass classification and the region of interest (ROI) extraction are crucial for enhancing the subsequent feature extraction and image processing speed in robotic automatic multi-layer multi-pass (MLMP) welding. Therefore, a novel model, lightweight weld pass classification and ROI extraction (LCE), is proposed. Initially, LCE is constructed based on object detection by some lightweight modules and structures, achieving a low model scale. Then, an enhanced bounding box regression loss function is presented to improve the precision of LCE. Finally, experiments show that LCE’s mean average precision and processing time are 92.7% and 7.2 ms, respectively. Furthermore, the software encapsulated with LCE also achieves high precision and speed. The main novelties and contributions of this paper include a novel lightweight model and an enhanced loss function, advancing the field of industrial automatic welding.
