Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of security inspection machine technology, and in particular to a package cutting method, device, electronic device and storage medium. Background Technology

[0002] With the advancement of the times and the development of society, security inspection machines are being used in more and more places, such as train stations, subway stations, airports, bus stations, and the logistics industry. Currently, in the logistics industry, when security inspection machines are used to inspect parcels, the parcels pass through a conveyor belt. First, the six-sided scanning device on the security inspection machine can automatically identify the parcel information based on the parcel's unique logistics information code. Then, the security inspection machine images the parcel and cuts it based on the image information, allowing the parcel information and the image information to be linked together. When suspected dangerous items are detected, the sender and recipient's relevant information can be directly retrieved.

[0003] Among them, such as Figure 1 The package shown appears to be a complete package, but due to the properties of X-rays, some parts inside the package are made of easily penetrable materials. This results in the package's image information appearing as follows after being exposed to X-rays. Figure 2 The information shown indicates that cutting the package based on its imaging information may split it into two packages, leading to errors in the correlation between subsequent package information and the package's imaging information. Consequently, when a suspected dangerous item is detected, it may be impossible to find the sender's and recipient's information. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This application provides a package cutting method, apparatus, electronic device, and storage medium to improve the accuracy of package cutting.

[0005] Firstly, a package cutting method is applied to a security inspection machine along the movement direction of the machine's conveyor belt, including a first detector, a second detector, an X-ray emitter, and a third detector. The distance between the second detector and the third detector and the X-ray emitter is less than a preset threshold. The method includes:

[0006] When the first detector detects the presence of a target package, if the X-ray emitter is not turned on, then the X-ray emitter is turned on.

[0007] When the second detector detects the target package, it begins to collect energy data corresponding to the target package; wherein, the energy data is the data received by the X-ray receiver when the target package passes through the X-ray emitter and emits X-rays;

[0008] The third detector detects whether the target package has left the area where the X-rays are projected.

[0009] Once it is determined that the target package has left the area of ​​the X-ray projection, the acquisition of energy data corresponding to the target package is terminated;

[0010] The target area corresponding to the target package is cut out based on the collected energy data using a preset package cutting method.

[0011] Optionally, the distance between the first detector and the X-ray emitter is related to the speed of the security inspection machine conveyor belt and the time required for the X-ray emitter's energy to stabilize.

[0012] Optionally, the method further includes:

[0013] If no other packages are detected within a preset time period after the first detector detects the target package, it is determined whether the target package has left the area of ​​the X-ray projection; wherein, the preset time period is longer than the time required for the target package to be transmitted from the first detector to the second detector;

[0014] If it is determined that the target package has left the area where the X-rays are projected, then the X-ray emitter is turned off.

[0015] Optionally, the step of cutting out the target area corresponding to the target package based on the collected energy data using a preset package cutting method includes:

[0016] The collected energy data is rendered into an image using an image rendering model;

[0017] Obtain the coordinate information of the target region in the image;

[0018] The target region is obtained by segmenting the image with other regions based on the coordinate information; wherein, the other regions are the regions in the image excluding the target region.

[0019] In this embodiment, when the target package is detected by the first detector, if the X-ray emitter is not turned on, the X-ray emitter is turned on so that the X-rays emitted by the X-ray emitter are in a stable energy state when the target package arrives. Based on the detection of the target package by the second and third detectors, the energy data of the target package from entering the X-ray projection area to leaving the area is collected. The target area corresponding to the target package is determined according to the energy data and the package is cut. Complete package data can be obtained, so that the package cutting process is not affected by the contents of the package, thereby effectively improving the accuracy of package cutting.

[0020] Secondly, a package cutting method is provided, applied to a security inspection machine, along the movement direction of the conveyor belt of the security inspection machine, including a first detector, an X-ray emitter, and a second detector, wherein the distance between the second detector and the X-ray emitter is less than a preset threshold, the method comprising:

[0021] When the first detector detects the presence of a target package, if the X-ray emitter is not turned on, then the X-ray emitter is turned on.

[0022] After waiting for a first preset time, the energy data corresponding to the target package is collected; wherein, the first preset time is the time required for the energy of the X-ray emitter to stabilize, and the energy data is the data received by the X-ray receiver when the target package passes through the X-ray emitted by the X-ray emitter;

[0023] The second detector is used to detect whether the target package has left the area where the X-rays are projected.

[0024] Once it is determined that the target package has left the area of ​​the X-ray projection, the acquisition of energy data corresponding to the target package is terminated;

[0025] The target area corresponding to the target package is cut out based on the collected energy data using a preset package cutting method.

[0026] Optionally, the distance between the first detector and the X-ray emitter is related to the speed of the security inspection machine conveyor belt and the time required for the X-ray emitter's energy to stabilize.

[0027] Optionally, the method further includes:

[0028] If no other packages are detected within a second preset time period after the first detector detects the target package, it is determined whether the target package has left the area of ​​the X-ray projection; wherein, the second preset time period is longer than the first preset time period;

[0029] If it is determined that the target package has left the area where the X-rays are projected, then the X-ray emitter is turned off.

[0030] Optionally, the step of cutting out the target area corresponding to the target package based on the collected energy data using a preset package cutting method includes:

[0031] The collected energy data is rendered into an image using an image rendering model;

[0032] Obtain the coordinate information of the target region in the image;

[0033] The target region is obtained by segmenting the image with other regions based on the coordinate information; wherein, the other regions are the regions in the image excluding the target region.

[0034] In this embodiment, when the target package is detected by the first detector, if the X-ray emitter is not turned on, the X-ray emitter is turned on so that the X-rays emitted by the X-ray emitter are in a stable energy state when the target package arrives. After waiting for a first preset time, energy data of the target package entering the X-ray projection area is collected. When the second detector detects that the target package has left the X-ray projection area, the collection of energy data ends. The target area corresponding to the target package is determined based on the energy data, and the package is cut. Complete package data can be obtained, so that the package cutting process is not affected by the contents of the package, thereby effectively improving the accuracy of package cutting.

[0079] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, and not all of them. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application. Unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this application can be arbitrarily combined with each other. Furthermore, although a logical order is shown in the flowchart, in some cases, the steps shown or described may be performed in a different order than that shown here.

[0080] The terms "first" and "second" in the specification, claims, and accompanying drawings of this application are used to distinguish different objects, not to describe a specific order. Furthermore, the term "comprising" and any variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive protection. For example, a process, method, system, product, or device that includes a series of steps or units is not limited to the listed steps or units, but may optionally include steps or units not listed, or may optionally include other steps or units inherent to these processes, methods, products, or devices. The term "multiple" in this application can mean at least two, for example, two, three, or more, and the embodiments of this application do not impose limitations.

[0081] To facilitate understanding, the design concept of the embodiments of the present invention will be introduced below.

[0082] As mentioned earlier, current security screening machines cut packages based on imaging information during the security screening process. During this process, the package may be cut into two packages, for reasons such as... Figure 3 As shown, Figure 3 This is a structural diagram of a security inspection machine in a related technology provided in an embodiment of this application. If the conveyor belt of the security inspection machine travels from left to right, the infrared sensor 1 detects the presence of a target package. If the X-ray is not activated when a target package is detected, it is activated, and imaging information of the target package is collected. The target package is then cut based on the imaging information. The X-ray is deactivated if no package passes through within a certain time period detected by the infrared sensor 2. At this time, if there are two objects in the target package, and the material between the two objects is permeable by X-rays, the package cutting based on the imaging information may cut one package into two packages, resulting in a cutting rate greater than 100% (i.e., the actual number of packages is less than the number of packages obtained after cutting). The package information and the package imaging information cannot be accurately correlated within a certain time period.

[0083] In view of this, the embodiments of this application provide the following two solutions:

[0084] The first method involves a security inspection machine along its conveyor belt, comprising a first detector, a second detector, an X-ray emitter, and a third detector. The distances between the second and third detectors and the X-ray emitter are less than a preset threshold. When the first detector detects a target package, if the X-ray emitter is not activated, it is activated, and the package is detected by the second detector. When the second detector detects the target package, it begins collecting energy data from the X-rays emitted by the X-ray emitter as the target package passes through the X-ray receiver. The third detector then checks whether the target package has left the X-ray projection area. Once it is determined that the target package has left the X-ray projection area, the collection of energy data corresponding to the target package ends. Based on the collected energy data, a preset package cutting method is used to cut out the target area corresponding to the target package. In this way, because the package cutting process is not affected by the contents of the package, the package can be accurately cut.

[0085] The second method involves a conveyor belt along the security inspection machine, comprising a first detector, an X-ray emitter, and a second detector. The distance between the second detector and the X-ray emitter is less than a preset threshold. When the first detector detects a target package, if the X-ray emitter is not activated, it is activated. After waiting for a preset time, energy data corresponding to the target package is collected. The second detector detects whether the target package has left the X-ray projection area. Once it is determined that the target package has left the X-ray projection area, the collection of energy data corresponding to the target package ends. A preset package cutting method is used to cut out the target area corresponding to the target package based on the collected energy data. In this way, since the package cutting process is not affected by the contents of the package, the package can be accurately cut.

[0086] After introducing the design concept of the embodiments of this application, the package cutting method provided by the embodiments of this application will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0087] Example 1

[0088] Please refer to Figure 4 As shown, Figure 4In a security inspection machine structure provided in this application embodiment, if the conveyor belt of the security inspection machine runs from left to right, infrared sensor 1, infrared sensor 2, and infrared sensor 3 are respectively the first detector, the second detector, and the third detector, and infrared sensor 4 is not working. If the conveyor belt of the security inspection machine runs from right to left, infrared sensor 4, infrared sensor 3, and infrared sensor 2 are respectively the first detector, the second detector, and the third detector, and infrared sensor 1 is not working. Considering that after the X-ray emitter is turned on, it takes a certain amount of time for the X-ray emitter's energy to stabilize (i.e., the X-ray energy to stabilize), the distance between infrared sensor 1 and infrared sensor 4 (i.e., the first detector) and the X-ray emitter can be determined based on the speed of the security inspection machine's conveyor belt and the time required for the X-ray emitter's energy to stabilize. For example, if the conveyor belt of the security inspection machine moves at a speed of 2 m / s and the X-ray requires a settling time of 1 s, then the distance between the first detector and the X-ray emitter needs to be greater than or equal to 2 m. Preferably, considering that the actual speed of the security inspection machine conveyor belt may have an error compared with the set speed, the distance between the first detector and the X-ray emitter is set to be greater than 2 m.

[0089] Furthermore, infrared sensor 2 and infrared sensor 3 are respectively disposed on both sides of the X-ray emitter, and the distance between infrared sensor 2 and infrared sensor 3 and the X-ray emitter is less than a preset threshold. Preferably, the second detector and the third detector are close to the X-ray emitter.

[0090] The following describes a package cutting method applied to the above-described security inspection machine structure according to an embodiment of this application. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 5 As shown, Figure 5 The package cutting method in this application embodiment is described in the following process:

[0091] Step 501: When the first detector detects the presence of the target package, if the X-ray emitter is not turned on, then turn on the X-ray emitter;

[0092] In this embodiment of the application, the first detector is used to detect whether there is a target package, and when the first detector detects the presence of a target package, it determines the state of the X-ray emitter. If it is determined that the X-ray emitter is not turned on, the X-ray emitter is turned on. If the X-ray emitter is already turned on, the current state is maintained.

[0093] As one possible implementation, in this embodiment of the application, if the first detector does not detect any other packages within a preset time after detecting the target package, it indicates that there are no packages that need to be inspected temporarily. Therefore, it can also be determined whether the target package has left the X-ray detection surface. If the target package has left the X-ray detection surface, the X-ray emitter is turned off. When the first detector detects the target package again, the X-ray emitter is turned on again to save resources.

[0094] Step 502: When the second detector detects the target package, begin collecting the energy data corresponding to the target package;

[0095] In this embodiment, when the second detector detects the target package, it indicates that the target package is about to enter the X-ray projection area (i.e., the X-ray detection surface). At this time, energy data corresponding to the target package is collected to determine the target area corresponding to the target package. The energy of the X-rays decreases after the object in the target package passes through the X-ray detection surface; that is, the energy received by the X-ray receiver is different from the energy emitted by the X-ray emitter. The degree of energy attenuation varies depending on the object. For objects without objects or objects that X-rays can penetrate, the X-ray energy does not decrease; that is, the energy received by the X-ray receiver is the same as the energy emitted by the X-ray emitter. Therefore, the aforementioned energy data refers to the data received by the X-ray receiver when the target package passes through the X-ray detection surface.

[0096] Step 503: Detect whether the target package has left the area of ​​X-ray projection using the third detector;

[0097] As described in step 502, when the second detector detects the target package, it indicates that the target package has entered the X-ray detection surface. At this time, the third detector can detect whether the target package has left the X-ray detection surface. Specifically, the third detector continuously emits infrared signals to detect whether the target package exists. If the emitted infrared signal can detect the package information, it indicates that the target package has not yet left the X-ray detection surface. If the emitted infrared signal cannot detect the package information, it indicates that the target package has left the X-ray detection surface.

[0098] Step 504: When it is determined that the target package has left the area of ​​X-ray projection, the acquisition of energy data corresponding to the target package is terminated;

[0099] Step 505: Cut out the target area corresponding to the target package based on the collected energy data using a preset package cutting method.

[0100] The energy data collected includes all energy data collected between the second detector detecting the target package and the third detector detecting that the target package has left the X-ray detection surface.

[0101] During the energy data acquisition process, the acquired energy data can be rendered into an image using an image rendering algorithm. Then, the coordinate information of the target area in the image can be obtained. Based on this coordinate information, the target area can be segmented from other areas (i.e., the areas in the image excluding the target area) to obtain the target area.

[0102] As one possible implementation, in this embodiment of the application, after segmenting the target area from other areas based on the coordinate information of the target package in the image, image recognition can be performed on the obtained image of the target area to analyze the attributes of the items corresponding to the target package. If there are suspected dangerous items in the package, the coordinate information of the suspected dangerous items is obtained, and the image of the target area, the coordinate information of the suspected dangerous items, and the attribute information of the suspected dangerous items are displayed on the display for secondary verification by manual verification. The energy data corresponding to the target package is then deleted. If there are no suspected dangerous items in the package, the energy data corresponding to the target package is directly deleted.

[0103] In the specific implementation process, when the first detector detects the presence of a target package, it is determined whether the X-ray emitter is turned on. If it is not turned on, the X-ray emitter is turned on to stabilize the X-ray energy and improve the accuracy of data acquisition. When the second detector detects the presence of a target package, the energy data corresponding to the target package is collected. When the third detector detects the departure of the target package, the collection of energy data corresponding to the target package ends. The energy data collected in a continuous period of time is determined as the data corresponding to one package, thus realizing package cutting. In this way, since the package cutting process is independent of the imaging information of the package, the package cutting is not affected by the material inside the package, which can effectively improve the accuracy of package cutting.

[0104] Example 2

[0105] Please refer to Figure 6 As shown, Figure 6In another security inspection machine structure provided in this application embodiment, if the conveyor belt of the security inspection machine runs from left to right, infrared sensor 1 and infrared sensor 3 are the first detector and the second detector, respectively, and infrared sensor 2 and infrared sensor 4 are not working. If the conveyor belt of the security inspection machine runs from right to left, infrared sensor 4 and infrared sensor 2 are the first detector and the second detector, respectively, and infrared sensor 1 and infrared sensor 3 are not working. Considering that after the X-ray emitter is turned on, it takes a certain amount of time for the X-ray emitter's energy to stabilize (i.e., the X-ray energy to stabilize), the distance between infrared sensor 1 and infrared sensor 4 (i.e., the first detector) and the X-ray emitter can be determined based on the speed of the security inspection machine conveyor belt and the time required for the X-ray emitter's energy to stabilize. For example, if the speed of the security inspection machine conveyor belt is 2 m / s and the stabilization time required for the X-ray is 1 second, then the distance between the first detector and the X-ray emitter needs to be greater than or equal to 2 m. Preferably, the distance between the first detector and the X-ray emitter is set to be close to 2 m.

[0106] Furthermore, the distance between the infrared sensor 2 or the infrared sensor 3 (i.e., the second detector) and the X-ray emitter is less than a preset threshold; preferably, the second detector is close to the X-ray emitter.

[0107] The following describes a package cutting method applied to the above-described security inspection machine structure according to an embodiment of this application. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 7 As shown, Figure 7 The package cutting method in this application embodiment is described in the following process:

[0108] Step 701: When the first detector detects the presence of the target package, if the X-ray emitter is not turned on, then turn on the X-ray emitter;

[0109] As one possible implementation, in this embodiment of the application, if no other packages are detected within a second preset time period after the first detector detects the target package, it indicates that there are no packages that need to be inspected temporarily. Therefore, it can also be determined whether the target package has left the X-ray detection surface. If the target package has left the X-ray detection surface, the X-ray emitter is turned off. When the first detector detects the target package again, the X-ray emitter is turned on again to save resources.

[0110] Step 702: After waiting for the first preset time, start collecting the energy data corresponding to the target package;

[0111] The first preset duration is the time required for the X-ray emitter's energy to stabilize, and the energy data refers to the data received by the X-ray receiver when the target package passes through the X-ray detection surface.

[0112] In this embodiment of the application, since there is a certain distance between the first detector and the X-ray emitter, in order to reduce the collection of invalid data, when the first detector detects the presence of a target package, it waits for a first preset time before starting to collect energy data.

[0113] Step 703: Detect whether the target package has left the area of ​​X-ray projection using the second detector;

[0114] Step 704: Once it is determined that the target package has left the area of ​​X-ray projection, the acquisition of energy data corresponding to the target package is terminated;

[0115] Step 705: Cut out the target area corresponding to the target package based on the collected energy data using a preset package cutting method.

[0116] The energy data collected includes all energy data collected during the period from when the first detector detects the target package and waits for a first preset time until the second detector detects that the target package has left the X-ray detection surface.

[0117] During the energy data acquisition process, the acquired energy data can be rendered into an image using an image rendering algorithm. Then, the coordinate information of the target area in the image can be obtained. Based on this coordinate information, the target area can be segmented from other areas (i.e., the areas in the image excluding the target area) to obtain the target area.

[0118] As one possible implementation, in this embodiment of the application, after segmenting the target area from other areas based on the coordinate information of the target package in the image, image recognition can be performed on the obtained image of the target area to analyze the attributes of the items corresponding to the target package. If there are suspected dangerous items in the package, the coordinate information of the suspected dangerous items is obtained, and the image of the target area, the coordinate information of the suspected dangerous items, and the attribute information of the suspected dangerous items are displayed on the display for secondary verification by manual verification. The energy data corresponding to the target package is then deleted. If there are no suspected dangerous items in the package, the energy data corresponding to the target package is directly deleted.

[0119] In the specific implementation process, when the first detector detects the presence of a target package, it is determined whether the X-ray emitter is turned on. If it is not turned on, the X-ray emitter is turned on to stabilize the X-ray energy and improve the accuracy of data acquisition. After waiting for a first preset time, the energy data corresponding to the target package is collected. When the second detector detects that the target package has left, the collection of the energy data corresponding to the target package ends. The energy data collected in a continuous period of time is determined as the data corresponding to one package, thus realizing package cutting.
