On Using XMC R-CNN Model for Contraband Detection within X-Ray Baggage Security Images

We present an X-ray material classifier region-based convolutional neural network (XMC R-CNN) model for detecting the typical guns and the typical knives in X-ray baggage images. The XMC R-CNN model is used to solve the problem of contraband detection in overlapped X-ray baggage images by the X-ray material classifier algorithm and the organic stripping and inorganic stripping algorithm, and better detection rate and the miss rate are achieved. The detection rates of guns and knives are 96.5% and 95.8%, and the miss rates of guns and knives are 2.2% and 4.2%. The contraband detection technology based on the XMC R-CNN model is applied to X-ray baggage images of security inspection. According to user needs, the safe X-ray baggage images can be automatically filtered in some specific fields, which reduces the number of X-ray baggage images that security inspectors need to screen. The efficiency of security inspection is improved, and the labor intensity of security inspection is reduced. In addition, the security inspector can screen X-ray baggage images according to the boxes of automatic detection, which can improve the effect of security inspection.
