This paper main goal is to detect anomalies in photovoltaic panels installed in power generation systems using thermographic images. It was used image processing techniques and pattern recognition by means of artificial neural network with supervised and adaptive training. In order to implement the anomaly detection system it was selected from the tutorial "Solar Cell Development" by FLIR systems, thermographic images of photovoltaic cells with defects. The language of technical computing, MATLAB©, was used to make the preprocessing of all the collected images and it was also used for the training of an ABNET network, a PSOM network and a MLP network. Through the cross-validation method, the hit rate of the ABNET’s network and PSOM’s network was 87.5% and for the MLP the hit rate was 96.0%. The results corroborate for the use of these neural networks on a bank of images that will be created through a Research and Development Project (R&D) in progress.
