[0002] During the construction of tunnel projects, the stability of surrounding rock has an important impact on the safety and quality of the project. The degree of surrounding rock fragmentation is directly related to the stability and construction safety of the tunnel. The traditional method of identifying the degree of surrounding rock fragmentation mainly relies on manual observation and experience judgment, and has the following problems: 1. High subjectivity: The manual identification method relies on the experience of geological engineers. The judgment results of different personnel may vary greatly and lack consistency.
[0003] 2. Inefficiency: Manual identification requires a lot of on-site investigation and manual analysis, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive and cannot meet the needs of rapid construction.
[0004] 3. Lack of accuracy: Due to the limited resolution ability of the human eye, manual identification is difficult to accurately identify tiny cracks and broken features, which may lead to misjudgment and missed judgment.

[0016] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings: Example 1
[0017] A method for intelligently identifying the degree of crushing of surrounding rock of a tunnel comprises the following steps: Step S1: Image preprocessing: 1.1 Noise Removal: Use Gaussian filtering to remove noise from the image, ensure image quality, and improve image clarity and contrast; reduce random noise in the image, enhance image smoothness, and lay the foundation for subsequent processing; after using Gaussian filtering, the high-frequency information of the image (such as edges, noise, etc.) will be weakened, making the image look smoother, but if the kernel is too large, it may also make the image too blurred and reduce its clarity. This application uses a medium kernel size of 7×7; 1.2 Image Enhancement: Adaptive histogram equalization is used to improve the contrast of the image, making the details of the image more visible, highlighting the detailed features of the surrounding rock, facilitating subsequent processing, and enhancing the local contrast of the image; compared with traditional histogram equalization, adaptive histogram equalization can more effectively enhance image details, especially in some images with shadows or uneven brightness; its working principle is: in adaptive histogram equalization, the image is divided into multiple small blocks, the histogram of each small block is calculated and equalized, and finally the difference processing is performed; (1) Image segmentation First, adaptive histogram equalization divides the image into several small blocks (also called "context areas" or "windows"). These small blocks are local areas of the image and are usually of the same size. The granularity of the division (i.e., the size of the small blocks) can be adjusted as needed. Select block size: The size of the block directly affects the effect of adaptive histogram equalization. Smaller blocks can enhance local contrast more finely, but may introduce more noise. Larger blocks tend to smooth the process and the effect is close to global equalization. (2) Local histogram calculation For each small block, adaptive histogram equalization will calculate the histogram of the pixel values in the area separately. The histogram represents the frequency distribution of pixel values of various gray levels in the small block. Calculate the local histogram: count the pixels in each small block and generate the distribution of its gray level, i.e. histogram; (3) Local histogram equalization After obtaining the local histogram, adaptive histogram equalization performs an equalization operation on the histogram. The purpose of histogram equalization is to redistribute the grayscale values of pixels so that the grayscale distribution of pixels in the small block is more uniform, thereby enhancing the contrast. Equalization: The local histogram is converted into a uniform distribution through the cumulative distribution function (CDF), and the grayscale values of the pixels are redistributed accordingly; (4) Interpolation processing Since each small block is processed independently, directly splicing them may form obvious boundaries between small blocks, causing the image to look discontinuous; in order to eliminate these block effects, adaptive histogram equalization uses interpolation processing; Boundary smoothing: For each pixel, adaptive histogram equalization not only considers the equalization results of the small block where it is located, but also considers the equalization results of its neighboring small blocks. The final pixel value is obtained by weighted averaging these results. This interpolation method can smoothly transition the differences between different small blocks and reduce the blocking effect. Step S2: Feature extraction: In the edge detection of feature extraction, the Canny edge detection algorithm is used to extract the edges in the image and identify the boundaries of cracks and broken areas. The Canny algorithm locates the significant edges in the image by calculating the gradient change of the pixel gray value; Step S3: Image segmentation: Image segmentation uses the image threshold segmentation method: setting a threshold according to the gray value of the image to segment the image into broken areas and non-broken areas. Threshold segmentation is a simple and effective method suitable for situations where image features are obvious. There are many threshold segmentation methods. This application uses an adaptive threshold segmentation method. Step S4: Feature analysis: The crack parameters, contrast and homogeneity of the rock are calculated from the processed images, and combined with the parameter boundary criteria of intact rock and broken rock, an analysis method for intelligently identifying the degree of surrounding rock fragmentation is obtained; 4.1 Crack analysis Calculate the length, width and density of cracks to quantify the degree of fragmentation. Fracture analysis can provide more detailed fragmentation information. The more cracks there are, the longer and wider they are, the higher the degree of fragmentation of the rock. 4.2 Contrast Analysis Calculate the contrast of the processed image data. The contrast reflects the difference in pixel values in the image; it describes the grayscale difference between adjacent pixels. The larger the value, the rougher the texture of the image and the greater the grayscale difference. If the contrast is high, it usually means that there are obvious edges or boundaries in the image, which means that the rock is more broken. 4.3 Homogeneity analysis The homogeneity of the image data after calculation and processing. Homogeneity reflects the consistency of the grayscale in the image. The larger its value is, the more uniform the texture of the image is and the smaller the grayscale variation is. High homogeneity usually means that the regional variation in the image is smaller and the texture is smoother, which means that the degree of rock fragmentation is lower.
[0018] The Gaussian filtering in step S1 uses a discretized window sliding window convolution method.
