Image Defect

Detection of substation equipment can promptly and effectively discover equipment overheating defects and prevent equipment failures. Traditional manual diagnosis methods are difficult to deal with the massive infrared images generated by the autonomous inspection of substation robots and drones. At present, most of the infrared image defect recognition is based on traditional machine learning algorithms, with low recognition accuracy and poor generalization capability. Therefore, this paper develops a method for identifying infrared defects of substation equipment based on the improvement of traditional ones. First, based on the Faster RCNN, target detection is performed on 6 types of substation equipment including bushings, insulators, wires, voltage transformers, lightning rods, and circuit breakers to achieve precise positioning of the equipment. Afterwards, different classes are identified based on the sparse representation-based classification (SRC), so the actual label of the input sample can be obtained. Finally, based on the temperature threshold discriminant algorithm, defects are identified in the equipment area. The measured infrared images are used for experiments. The average detection accuracy achieved by the proposed method for the 6 types of equipment reaches 92.34%. The recognition rate of different types of equipment is 98.57%, and the defect recognition accuracy reaches 88.75%. The experimental results show the effectiveness and accuracy of the proposed method.

Abstract. Automatic cloud type recognition of ground-based infrared images is still a challenging task. A novel cloud classification method is proposed to group images into five cloud types based on manifold and texture features. Compared with statistical features in Euclidean space, manifold features extracted on symmetric positive definite (SPD) matrix space can describe the non-Euclidean geometric characteristics of the infrared image more effectively. The proposed method comprises three stages: pre-processing, feature extraction and classification. Cloud classification is performed by a support vector machine (SVM). The datasets are comprised of the zenithal and whole-sky images taken by the Whole-Sky Infrared Cloud-Measuring System (WSIRCMS). Benefiting from the joint features, compared to the recent two models of cloud type recognition, the experimental results illustrate that the proposed method acquires a higher recognition rate with an increase of 2 %–10 % on the ground-based infrared datasets.

Abstract The existing technology of automatic classification and recognition of welding negative images by computer is difficult to achieve a multiple classification defect recognition while maintaining a high recognition accuracy, and the developed automatic recognition model of negative image defect cannot meet the actual needs of the field. Therefore, the convolutional neural network (CNN)-based intelligent recognition algorithm for negative image of weld defects is proposed, and a B/S (Browser/Server) architecture of weld defect feature image database combined with CNN is established subsequently, which converted from the existing CNN by the migration learning method. It makes full use of the negative big data and simplifies the algorithm development process, so that the recognition algorithm has a better generalization ability and the training algorithm accuracy of 97.18% achieved after training. The results of the comparison experiments with traditional recognition algorithms show that the CNN-based intelligent recognition algorithm for defective weld negatives has an accuracy of 92.31% for dichotomous defects, which is significantly better than the traditional recognition algorithm, the established recognition algorithm effectively improving the recognition accuracy and achieving multi-category defect recognition. At the same time, the CNN-based defect recognition method was established by combining the image segmentation algorithm and the defect intelligent recognition algorithm, which was applied to the actual negative images in the field with good results, further verifying the feasibility of CNN-based intelligent recognition algorithm in the field of defect recognition of welding negative images.

Substation equipment is not only the main part of the power grid but also the essential part to ensure the development of the national economy and People's Daily life of one of the important infrastructure. How to ensure its normal operation and find the sudden failure has become a hot issue to be solved urgently. For thermal fault diagnosis needs to classify and identify different power equipment first, this paper designed an SVM infrared image classifier, which can effectively identify three types of common power equipment. The classifier extracts HOG features from the infrared images of power equipment processed by the above segmentation and combines them with SVM multiclassification to achieve the purpose of improving the recognition accuracy. The experiment uses the classifier to identify three kinds of equipment, and the results show that the comprehensive recognition accuracy of the classifier is more than 95.3%, which is better than the traditional classification method and meets the demand for classification accuracy. In this paper, the traditional method of relative temperature difference is improved by using the temperature data of the infrared image, which can automatically judge the thermal failure level of electric power equipment. Experiments show that the diagnosis system designed in this paper can classify faults and give treatment suggestions while judging whether there are thermal faults for three types of power equipment, which verifies the feasibility and effectiveness of the substation infrared diagnosis technology designed in this paper.

Defect detection of electromagnetic luminescence (EL) cells is the core step in the production and preparation of solar cell modules to ensure conversion efficiency and long service life of batteries. However, due to the lack of feature extraction capability for small feature defects, the traditional single shot multibox detector (SSD) algorithm performs not well in EL defect detection with high accuracy. Consequently, an improved SSD algorithm with modification in feature fusion in the framework of deep learning is proposed to improve the recognition rate of EL multi-class defects. A dataset containing images with four different types of defects through rotation, denoising, and binarization is established for the EL. The proposed algorithm can greatly improve the detection accuracy of the small-scale defect with the idea of feature pyramid networks. An experimental study on the detection of the EL defects shows the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm. Moreover, a comparison study shows the proposed method outperforms other traditional detection methods, such as the SIFT, Faster R-CNN, and YOLOv3, in detecting the EL defect.

Reflection in images is common and the removal of complex noise such as image reflection is still being explored. The problem is difficult and ill-posed, not only because there is no mixing function but also because there are no constraints in the output space (the processed image). When it comes to detecting defects on metal surfaces using infrared thermography, reflection from smooth metal surfaces can easily affect the final detection results. Therefore, it is essential to remove the reflection interference in infrared images. With the continuous application and expansion of neural networks in the field of image processing, researchers have tried to apply neural networks to remove image reflection. However, they have mainly focused on reflection interference removal in visible images and it is believed that no researchers have applied neural networks to remove reflection interference in infrared images. In this paper, the authors introduce the concept of a conditional generative adversarial network (cGAN) and propose an end-to-end trained network based on this with two types of loss: perceptual loss and adversarial loss. A self-built infrared reflection image dataset from an infrared camera is used. The experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of this GAN for removing infrared image reflection.

Spoofing Detection

The importance of the Global Positioning System (GPS) and related electronic systems continues to increase in a range of environmental, engineering and navigation applications. However, civilian GPS signals are vulnerable to Radio Frequency (RF) interference. Spoofing is an intentional intervention that aims to force a GPS receiver to acquire and track invalid navigation data. Analysis of spoofing and authentic signal patterns represents the differences as phase, energy and imaginary components of the signal. In this paper, early-late phase, delta, and signal level as the three main features are extracted from the correlation output of the tracking loop. Using these features, spoofing detection can be performed by exploiting conventional machine learning algorithms such as K-Nearest Neighbourhood (KNN) and naive Bayesian classifier. A Neural Network (NN) as a learning machine is a modern computational method for collecting the required knowledge and predicting the output values in complicated systems. This paper presents a new approach for GPS spoofing detection based on multi-layer NN whose inputs are indices of features. Simulation results on a software GPS receiver showed adequate detection accuracy was obtained from NN with a short detection time.

Due to the limitation of energy consumption and power consumption, the embedded platform cannot meet the real-time requirements of the far-infrared image pedestrian detection algorithm. To solve this problem, this paper proposes a new real-time infrared pedestrian detection algorithm (RepVGG-YOLOv4, Rep-YOLO), which uses RepVGG to reconstruct the YOLOv4 backbone network, reduces the amount of model parameters and calculations, and improves the speed of target detection; using space spatial pyramid pooling (SPP) obtains different receptive field information to improve the accuracy of model detection; using the channel pruning compression method reduces redundant parameters, model size, and computational complexity. The experimental results show that compared with the YOLOv4 target detection algorithm, the Rep-YOLO algorithm reduces the model volume by 90%, the floating-point calculation is reduced by 93.4%, the reasoning speed is increased by 4 times, and the model detection accuracy after compression reaches 93.25%.

The presented paper proposes an algorithm for palmprint recognition using seven different machine learning algorithms. First of all, we have proposed a region of interest (ROI) extraction methodology which is a two key points technique. Secondly, we have performed some image enhancement techniques such as edge detection and morphological operations in order to make the ROI image more suitable for the Hough transform. In addition, we have applied the Hough transform in order to extract all the possible principle lines on the ROI images. We have extracted the most salient morphological features of those lines; slope and length. Furthermore, we have applied the invariant moments algorithm in order to produce 7 appropriate hues of interest. Finally, after performing a complete hybrid feature vectors, we have applied different machine learning algorithms in order to recognize palmprints effectively. Recognition accuracy have been tested by calculating precision, sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, dice, Jaccard coefficients, correlation coefficients, and training time. Seven different supervised machine learning algorithms have been implemented and utilized. The effect of forming the proposed hybrid feature vectors between Hough transform and Invariant moment have been utilized and tested. Experimental results show that the feed forward neural network with back propagation has achieved about 99.99% recognition accuracy among all tested machine learning techniques.
