This comprehensive survey identifies emerging trends in AI-driven PV fault detection, highlights the most advanced methodologies, and proposes a novel AI-based approach to enhance fault detection and classification capabilities. . However, PV panels are prone to various defects such as cracks, micro-cracks, and hot spots during manufacturing, installation, and operation, which can significantly reduce power generation efficiency and shorten equipment lifespan. Therefore, fast and accurate defect detection has become a vital. . Cognex inspection systems solve this challenge with AI-powered technology that accurately detects solar panel defects while ignoring normal appearance variations. Aiming at the problems of chaotic distribution of defect targets on photovoltaic panels, large scale span and blurred features, this paper improves the network structure based on the. . Solar panel defect detection, a crucial quality control task in the manufacturing process, often faces challenges such as varying defect sizes, severe image background interference, and imbalanced data sample distribution. To address these issues, this paper proposes the EBBA-Detector.
