Classification Report of Model Training.

Image preprocessing and edge detection are critical in industrial machine vision for workpiece dimension measurement. Challenges arise from interference regions on workpiece surfaces, complicating edge detection and roundness assessment. This paper investigates the application of AI-based detection methods within the industrial image analysis framework of coordinate measuring machines. Initially, two models with varying hole sizes and counts were designed in SolidWorks, fabricated using a Prolight 3-axis CNC milling machine, and analyzed. A transfer learning approach mitigated overfitting on the limited dataset of model surface features. The study employed a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) to identify interference regions and predict circularity, enhancing measurement accuracy. Validated with a testing dataset, the CNN achieved 100% classification accuracy, confirmed by a Confusion Matrix. Fine-tuning of the CNN with specific training data leveraged image preprocessing to enhance features via multi-layer convolution, pooling, and detailed analysis through fully connected layers. Comparative diameter analysis across Models 1–2 showed all methods maintained ≤0.05 mm deviation from actual values, with CNN exhibiting minor variations at Model 1’s points 3,7,9 while matching CMM precision (r = 1.000) and outperforming vision systems in Model 2’s multi-hole measurements, supported by ANOVA-confirmed discrimination (F = 34,514,683, p
