Smoothing Complete Feature Pyramid Networks for Roll Mark Detection of Steel Strips

Steel strip acts as a fundamental material for the steel industry. Surface defects threaten the steel quality and cause substantial economic and reputation losses. Roll marks, always occurring periodically in a large area, are put on the top of the list of the most serious defects by steel mills. Es...
