INSTRUMENTAL METHODS AND MEANS OF AUTOMATED QUALITY EVALUATION OF RADIOGRAPHIC IMAGES IN DICONDE FORMAT
(pp. 30-39)

Abstract. The approach to evaluation and structuring of radiation nondestructive testing results in DICONDE digital format is considered. A quantitative mathematical model and a set of algorithms for evaluating the quality of radiographic images and information completeness of DICONDE-tags are given, and a comparative analysis of various tools for their processing is carried out. An ER-model of relational database structure for efficient storage and interaction with the results of radiation nondestructive testing has been developed. An example of analyzing the quality of the radiographic image of a welded joint, including interaction with the database and file storage of DICONDE-files, is considered to evaluate the performance of instrumental methods and software tools.

Keywords: radiation nondestructive testing, DICONDE, computer vision, mathematical modeling, algorithms and data structures.
