The dominant approach for surface defect detection is the use of hand-crafted feature-based methods. However, this falls short when conditions vary that affect extracted images. So, in this paper, we sought to determine how well several state-of-the-art Convolutional Neural Networks perform in the task of surface defect detection. Moreover, we propose two methods: CNN-Fusion, that fuses the prediction of all the networks into a final one, and Auto-Classifier, which is a novel proposal that improves a Convolutional Neural Network by modifying its classification component using AutoML. We carried out experiments to evaluate the proposed methods in the task of surface defect detection using different datasets from DAGM2007. We show that the use of Convolutional Neural Networks achieves better results than traditional methods, and also, that Auto-Classifier out-performs all other methods, by achieving 100 100
