摘要

In the manufacturing industry, defect classification is crucial but is hampered by challenges from imbalanced data, which often leads to model overfitting when data are scarce. One common solution is to use synthetic data from generative models; however, these models typically produce results that are structurally inconsistent. Addressing these concerns, this paper introduces a novel null embedding optimization technique that generates latent representations closely resembling the original images, significantly enhancing the fidelity of the generated images. This method ensures that synthetic images are not only visually similar to the original images but also subjected to a more extensive and diverse augmentation process, increasing the variability within the dataset. Consequently, this approach effectively doubles the usable dataset size and notably increases the accuracy of classification models by up to 11%.
