Summary:1. Field of the Invention A method involves training a system to identify inspection sites on a printed circuit board. The method uses a priori information, which includes a sample pad description. A training region of interest is created within an image of the printed circuit board. A search tool is run to find pad candidates within the training region. The pad candidates are filtered and false pad candidates are eliminated. The filtered pad candidates are averaged to provide an average, and are modified based on the average.
