摘要：AbstractAs the key basis materials of Ni-MH and Ni/Cd battery electrode, the quality of the nickel foam products is closely related with the performance and safety of rechargeable batteries. In order to meet the requirements of automatic defect inspection, this paper proposes an image segmentation method for the appearance defects of nickel foam. Nickel foam image has the characteristics of a low degree of differentiation between foreground and background, basic structure of mutual adhesion, surface morphology for complex random texture features. In order to extract defects from complex nickel foam surface image, a novel selective filtering method is proposed to preprocess the original image, thereby reducing the effects of the above factors, and then a modified PCNN method is used to segment the defect area. The results show that the proposed method can effectively segregate the defects from the background, which lays a foundation for the automatic detection of the appearance quality of nickel foam.
