Adaptive Multi-threshold Based Mura Detection on A LCD Panel

적응적 임계화법에 기반한 LCD 얼룩 검사

In this paper, a new automated defects detection method for a TFT-LCD panel is presented. An input image is preprocessed to lessen small abnormal noises and non-uniformity of the image. The adaptive multi-thresholds are used to detect Muras, which are the major defects occurred on TFT-LCD panels. Those are determined adaptively depending on the brightness and the brightness distribution of a local block. For the synthetic images and real Mura images, the proposed algorithm can effectively detect Muras in a reasonable time.
