How To: Image Filters Technique - MVTec Halcon

In this tutorial, you’ll learn about some of the most used image filters in MVTec HALCON, how they work, and the application. 

First, we will look at smoothing filters, such as mean_image and median_image, and how filter masks work. Then, you’ll get to know some arithmetic filters, like sub_image, invert_image, and scale_image. 

Next, we have a look at many different applications that we can solve with these filters. You’ll learn about what to look out for when using filters on images with reduced domains.

How To: Halcon Deep Learning - MVTec Halcon(Halcon 21.05)

Introduction and Preparation of the Dataset

In the first part of this tutorial series, you will learn what is classification and classification applications. Then, we will look at the first HDevelop example series on HALCON classification. 

Within this program, we will learn how to read and split a dataset. Next, we preprocess the labeled data to be suitable for the deep learning model. 

Then, you will be ready for training, which we will learn about in the next video.

0:00 Intro

0:22 Introduction of the technology

1:20 Working with the HDevelop example  classify_pill_defects_deep_learning_1_preprocess.hdev

1:53 Read the dataset

2:33 Split the dataset for training, validation, and testing

3:30 Preprocess the dataset



Train a Model

In the second part of this tutorial series, you will learn how to train a classification model with MVTec HALCON. 

We will have a look at some hyperparameters that influence the training progress, like for example the learning rate. Additionally, we will learn how and when to augment your data. 

We will have a look at how to interpret the extensive training progress visualization. For example, we will examine the ‘top-1-error’, which is to check the performance of the model during training.

0:29 Select a suitable device for the training

0:53 Training hyperparameters: learning rate, batch size, epochs, …

2:47 Augment the training data

3:36 Visualization of the training progress


Evaluate the Trained Model – HALCON Deep Learning

In the third part of this tutorial series on HALCON’s deep-learning-based classification, we will check the deep-learning-based object detection model we trained in the previous video. 

First, we will inspect some pie charts, visualizing the precision and recall of the model on a given dataset. Additionally, a confusion matrix helps us analyze the classes in detail. Finally, we have a look at the heatmap.

0:00 Intro

0:57 Evaluate the pie charts for precision and recall

2:48 Inspect the heatmap visualization


Apply the Model (Inference) – HALCON Deep Learning

In the last part of this tutorial series on HALCON deep-learning-based classification, we will apply the model we trained and evaluated before.
