🧵 Carbon Fiber Defect Sample Dataset (CFYD + WPSD)

This repository presents sample images from two industrial defect datasets — Carbon Fiber Yarn Defects Dataset (CFYD) and Woven Preform Surface Defects Dataset (WPSD).

These datasets were constructed to support defect detection in carbon fiber manufacturing, covering both yarn-level and preform-level production stages.

📘 Dataset Overview

This dataset project contains two sub-datasets, each corresponding to a distinct stage in the composite preform manufacturing process.

1️⃣ Carbon Fiber Yarn Defects Dataset (CFYD)

The CFYD dataset focuses on the yarn delivery stage of carbon fiber production.

• —Raw Data: 2,108 high-resolution images (4096×3000)
• —Processed Data: Each raw image was divided into 1024×1024 patches
• —Cleaned Data: After discarding blurred or noisy samples, approximately 10,000 valid patches were retained
• —Defect Categories:
• —Fuzz
• —Broken Yarns
• —Fiber Clumps
• —Loose Filaments
• —Normal Category: Images without visible defects
• —Purpose: Enables fine-grained defect localization and recognition in slender fiber structures.

2️⃣ Woven Preform Surface Defects Dataset (WPSD)

The WPSD dataset focuses on the weaving stage of carbon fiber preform manufacturing.

• —Raw Data: 1,574 preform images (4096×3000)
• —Processed Data: Each image was partitioned into 1024×1024 patches
• —Cleaned Data: After manual screening, approximately 5,000 valid patches were retained
• —Defect Categories:
• —Knots
• —Yarn Breakage
• —Floating Yarns
• —Normal Category: Defect-free woven surfaces
• —Note: Defect instances in this dataset are comparatively rarer than in CFYD, reflecting real-world manufacturing distributions.

Each subfolder contains one representative image that illustrates a specific type of surface or yarn defect. All images are resized and standardized for visualization purposes.

⚠️ Important Notes

• —The current dataset contains sample images only and does not represent the full datasets used in the publication.
• —The complete datasets (CFYD & WPSD) used for model training, testing, and evaluation in the paper will be fully released upon official publication.
• —These samples are shared solely for academic reference and visualization.
