A computer vision inspection system is used in a production line to carry out responsibilities that humans struggle with. In this use case, the system uses high-resolution images to build a full 3D [tridimensional] model of components and their connector pins. As components run through the manufacturing plant, the computer vision system captures various images from different angles to generate a 3D model. These images, when combined and fed to AI [artificial intelligence] algorithms, identify any faulty threading or minor deviation from the design. 1, record 1, English, - computer%20vision%20inspection%20system

The full maximum likelihood classifier uses the Gaussian threshold stored in each class signature to determine if a given pixel falls within the class or not. The threshold is the radius(in standard deviation units) of a hyperellipse surrounding the mean of the class in feature space. If the pixel falls inside the hyperellipse, it is assigned to the class, otherwise it is assigned to a null class. However, for this classification, the null class option was not utilized, thus the thresholds were ignored and every pixel was assigned to the most probable class, the nearest class based upon the Mahalanobis distance measure(Richards, 1986). 3, record 2, English, - class%20signature

Chaque classe est décrite par une ACPP [analyse en composantes principales probabiliste] locale caractérisée par un nombre de vecteurs propres égal à la dimension réduite locale choisie pour cette ACPP et qui constitue une bonne signature de la classe. Ceci est très utile dans le cas où les classes correspondent à des réalités physiques telles que des objets astronomiques, des types de sol ou des étendues d'eau. 3, record 2, French, - signature%20de%20la%20classe

Gyro Scale Factor Error: This is an indication of the angular error which occurs during rotation. E.g. with 300 ppm scale factor error (=0.03%) the angular error is in the area of 0.1 degree after one revolution. 2, record 3, English, - scale%20factor%20error

A gyro's accuracy and performance can be judged by its output errors; for rate sensors the most important are : bias; scale factor error; noise... The scale factor error is the linear deviation of the measured rate from the true rate(normally given as a percentage of full scale). 3, record 3, English, - scale%20factor%20error

Les erreurs de mesure des gyromètres laser peuvent être représentées par des modèles mathématiques beaucoup plus simples que ceux intervenant dans l'étude des gyromètres classiques. Cela résulte essentiellement de l'insensibilité des gyromètres laser aux accélérations. La description de l'erreur d'un gyromètre laser fait intervenir : a) une erreur de zéro [...] b) une erreur imputable au blocage [...] c) une erreur de facteur d'échelle, beaucoup plus faible que dans le cas des gyromètres mécaniques, due à une stabilité imparfaite des propriétés physiques des éléments de l'appareil. 1, record 3, French, - erreur%20de%20facteur%20d%27%C3%A9chelle
