Tire defects are crucial for safe driving. Specialized experts or expensive tools such as stereo depth cameras and depth gages are usually used to investigate these defects. In image processing, feature extraction, reduction, and classification are presented as three challenging and symmetric ways to affect the performance of machine learning models. This paper proposes a hybrid system for cracked tire detection based on the adaptive selection of correlation features and deep belief neural networks. The proposed system has three steps: feature extraction, selection, and classification. First, the oriented gradient histogram extracts features from the tire images. Second, the proposed adaptive correlation feature selection selects important features with a threshold value adapted to the nature of the images. The last step of the system is to predict the image category based on the deep belief neural networks technique. The proposed model is tested and evaluated using real images of cracked and normal tires. The experimental results show that the proposed solution performs better than the current studies in effectively classifying tire defect images. The proposed hybrid cracked tire detection system based on adaptive correlation feature selection and Deep Belief Neural Networks’ performance provided better classification accuracy (88.90%) than that of Belief Neural Networks (81.6%) and Convolution Neural Networks (85.59%).
