Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of image acquisition technology, and in particular to a hyperspectral imaging acquisition device for identifying recycled fibers. Background Art

[0002] Recycled fibers come from a wide range of sources and may contain different types of fiber raw materials. Accurately identifying their composition and purity helps ensure that products meet relevant standards and quality requirements.

[0003] Due to the differences in chemical and molecular structures of fibers made of different materials, they absorb, reflect or transmit spectra of different wavelengths in different ways, thus having their own spectral characteristics. The hyperspectral imaging acquisition device collects image information of fibers in different spectral bands to obtain the spectral fingerprint of the target. It can accurately identify and classify a large number of fiber samples in a short period of time, greatly improving the efficiency of recycled fiber processing and helping to quickly separate and classify different types of fibers for subsequent reprocessing and utilization.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0038] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments; based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0039] See also Figure 1-Figure 2, a hyperspectral imaging acquisition device for recycling fiber identification, comprising a hyperspectral imager 1, a main control computer 2 and an image processing system 3;

[0040] The hyperspectral imager 1 is used to collect images of the cross-section of recycled fibers. The hyperspectral imager 1 uses a hyperspectral camera. When collecting hyperspectral images, it is necessary to ensure that the illumination is uniform, the intensity is moderate, there is no shadow and reflection interference, and the light source is stable and covers the spectral range required by the camera to ensure imaging quality and accuracy.

[0041] The main control computer 2 is electrically connected to the hyperspectral imager 1 and is used to receive images collected by the hyperspectral imager 1, and the image processing system 3 is loaded in the main control computer 2;

[0042] The image processing system 3 is used to process, analyze and compare the collected images to identify the fiber components;

[0043] The image processing system 3 includes an image preprocessing module 31, a feature extraction module 32 and a comparison and evaluation module 33;

[0044] The image preprocessing module 31 is used to preprocess the images collected by the hyperspectral imager 1;

[0045] The feature extraction module 32 is used to extract features from the pre-processed image;

[0046] The comparison and evaluation module 33 is used to compare the extracted feature data and provide an identification result.

[0047] See also Figure 1 , a hyperspectral imaging acquisition device for recycling fiber identification, wherein the image preprocessing module 31 preprocesses the collected fiber cross-section image in a manner including image correction 311 , image enhancement 312 , and size normalization 313 ;

[0048] Image Correction 311: Perform radiation correction on the original image through the radiation correction field to eliminate the radiation differences between different bands, so that the spectral information in the image more accurately reflects the true characteristics of the fiber;

[0049] The image correction 311 also includes geometric correction, that is, during the acquisition process, due to factors such as the movement of the device or sample, the image may be geometrically distorted. The image is geometrically corrected using geometric correction algorithms, such as affine transformation and polynomial fitting, to ensure that the fiber morphology and position in the image are accurate;

[0050] Image enhancement 312: Since fiber images may have problems such as noise and low contrast, it is necessary to enhance the corrected image. The histogram equalization method is used to improve the image contrast and make the fiber features more obvious.

[0051] Use filtering algorithms to remove noise points in the image and smooth the image, but be careful to avoid excessive filtering that may cause blurring of fiber edges;

[0052] Size Normalization 313: To facilitate subsequent processing and analysis, the image size is normalized. Depending on the input requirements of the model, the image can be resized to a uniform size, such as 256×256 pixels or 512×512 pixels.

[0053] See also Figure 1 , a hyperspectral imaging acquisition device for recycling fiber identification, wherein the feature extraction module 32 includes spectral feature extraction 321 and spatial feature extraction 322;

[0054] The spectral feature extraction 321 extracts the spectral curve of each fiber pixel from the hyperspectral image and analyzes its spectral features, such as absorption peak, reflection peak, spectral slope, etc. Different types of chemical fibers have unique spectral absorption and reflection characteristics within specific wavelength ranges. These features can serve as an important basis for fiber identification.

[0055] Calculating the first-order and second-order derivatives of the spectral curve can highlight the changing trend and inflection point information of the spectral curve, which helps to more accurately distinguish different chemical fibers. For example, some chemical fibers have obvious extreme points in the first-order derivative at a specific wavelength, which can be used for identification.

[0056] The spatial feature extraction 322 includes texture feature extraction and shape feature extraction;

[0057] The texture feature extraction method uses gray-level co-occurrence matrix, local binary pattern and other methods to extract the spatial texture features of fibers in hyperspectral images. The surface texture of chemical fibers is closely related to their type and production process. For example, the thickness, uniformity and weaving method of the fibers are all reflected in the texture features.

[0058] Shape feature extraction: The shape features of the fiber, such as length, width, aspect ratio, and circularity, are obtained through edge detection, contour extraction, and other algorithms. These shape features are important for identifying the type and quality of the fiber.

[0059] The comparison and evaluation module 33 includes a discriminant model 331;

[0060] Establishment of the discriminant model 331: By training with chemical fiber sample data of known categories, a discriminant model 331 based on a convolutional neural network is established, with the extracted features as input and the class labels of the samples as output. By learning the relationship between the features and the categories of the samples, the discriminant model 331 can accurately classify and identify unknown fibers;

[0061] Optimization of the discriminant model 331: using an independent test data set to verify the discriminant model 331 and evaluate its accuracy and reliability. If the performance of the model is not satisfactory, further optimization of the model parameters, feature selection or other improvement measures may be adopted to improve the discrimination ability of the discriminant model 331.

[0062] After preprocessing and feature extraction, the hyperspectral image of the chemical fiber to be identified is input into the trained discriminant model 331 , which outputs the predicted category of the fiber to achieve identification of the chemical fiber.

[0063] While embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations may be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, and that the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
