Discerning Weld Seam Profiles from Strong Arc Background for the Robotic Automated Welding Process via Visual Attention Features

Abstract In the robotic welding process with thick steel plates, laser vision sensors are widely used to profile the weld seam to implement automatic seam tracking. The weld seam profile extraction (WSPE) result is a crucial step for identifying the feature points of the extracted profile to guide t...
