The classification of steel surface defects plays a very important role in analyzing their causes to improve manufacturing process and eliminate defects. However, defective samples are very scarce in actual production, so using very few samples to construct a good classifier is a challenge to be addressed. If the layer number of the model with proper depth is increased, the model accuracy will decrease (not caused by overfit), and the training error as well as the test error will be very high. This is called the degradation problem. In this paper, we propose to use feature extraction + feature transformation + nearest neighbors to classify steel surface defects. In order to solve the degradation problem caused by network deepening, the three feature extraction networks of Residual Net, Mobile Net and Dense Net are designed and analyzed. Experiment results show that in the case of a small sample number, Dense block can better solve the degradation problem caused by network deepening than Residual block. Moreover, if Dense Net is used as the feature extraction network, and the nearest neighbor classification algorithm based on Euclidean metric is used in the new feature space, the defect classification accuracy can reach 92.33% when only five labeled images of each category are used as the training set. This paper is of some guiding significance for surface defect classification when the sample number is small.
