英文摘要：

Aimed at the problem of detection of welding pool edge of aluminum alloy MIG welding,a method of pulse coupled neural network algorithm was adopted for edge detection of welding pool.The principle of pulse coupled neural network algorithm was introduced first.Then,on the platform of software MATLAB,the edge detection of welding pool image was conducted with pulse coupled neural network.Finally,the detection result obtained with the algorithm presented in this paper and that with canny operator were compared and analyzed.The result showed that it was feasible to use the pulse coupled neural network algorithm for detecting the edge of welding pool image.The extracted edge was distinct and continuous and the influence of noise on welding pool image was effectively eliminated.By using this algorithm,the processing time of single frame of image was 54 ms.
