Comparison of shape features for the classification of wear particles
Wear particle shapes are divided into four classes: regular, irregular, circular and elongated. They have been classified using backpropagation neural networks which have been trained using different sets of rotation-, scale- and translation-invariant shape features derived from particle boundaries. The features include: Fourier coefficients based on either boundary curvature analysis or XY co-ordinates of boundary points; statistical moments of the curvature distribution (including standard deviation, skewness and kurtosis); and two general shape descriptions (aspect ratio and roundness). In order to evaluate the performances of the features, a series of tests have been carried out on a wear particle database, and the results are compared. The boundary-curvature-based Fourier descriptors produce a shape classifier with the highest performance. The neural network trained by the Fourier features derived from the boundary data provides a slightly lower classification rate which is similar to that achieved using three statistical moments combined with the two general shape features.
