Abstract
The Industry 4.0 revolution, characterized by the widespread adoption of artificial intelligence and automation, has fundamentally transformed quality inspection processes in manufacturing sectors. Nevertheless, the leather tanning industry continues to rely on conventional visual inspection methods conducted by human operators, which are inherently susceptible to subjectivity, inter-operator variability, and inconsistent outcomes. This study proposes an integrated deep learning framework utilizing the NasNet-Large architecture combined with Local Interpretable Model-Agnostic Explanations (LIME) to automate objective defect detection and quality classification of pickled leather. The research employs a digital image dataset comprising four distinct leather grade categories, each annotated with expert-validated ground truth labels and professional interpretations. Experimental results demonstrate consistent model performance with 75% accuracy in both training and validation phases while achieving improved testing accuracy of 79%. LIME-based interpretability analysis reveals significant spatial convergence between model-identified defect regions and expert-annotated ground truth references. These findings indicate that the developed model exhibits remarkable competence in replicating professional leather quality inspection capabilities. The proposed approach not only enhances inspection efficiency by reducing human-dependent errors but also provides transparent decision-making interpretability - a critical requirement for reliable AI implementation in industrial applications. This research contributes to the advancement of explainable AI systems in material quality assessment, offering methodological innovation and practical implementation value for the leather manufacturing sector.
