Surface morphology segmentation and evaluation of diamond lapping pad based on improved Mask R-CNN by Wenlong SUO, Yanfen LIN, Congfu FANG

“…Dilated convolution is introduced in stage 3, and each residual block in stage 3 is improved into a residual block using dilated convolution to expand the receptive field, enhance the model's ability to extract deep semantic features of abrasive particles and pore targets of smaller scales on the surface of the lapping pad, and improve segmentation performance for abrasive grain and pore targets of different scales. The loss function and mean average precision (mAP) of Mask R-CNN are used to comprehensively reflect the performance of the model. …”
