[0003] The occurrence of soil and stone embankment seepage has the characteristics of spatial and temporal randomness and concealment, and timely discovery, accurate identification and positioning of seepage are the key to ensuring the safety of soil and stone embankments. Although some large soil and stone embankments are equipped with pressure measuring pipes, seepage pressure gauges and water measuring weirs, etc. monitoring facilities, they are usually only installed at a few key sections, which may miss the danger. In addition, most river embankments are not equipped with any seepage monitoring facilities. In addition, there are geophysical methods such as high-density electrical method, transient electromagnetic method and geological radar method, which are mainly used for detecting internal seepage hazards of embankments during non-flood season.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0041] The following examples are only used to more clearly illustrate the technical solutions of the present application, and cannot be used to limit the protection scope of the present application.
[0042] Embodiment one
[0043] As shown in Figure 1 The earth and rock dam leakage danger unmanned aerial automatic patrol and early warning method comprises:
[0044] Step 1, divide the range of the earth and rock dam site which is too long or positionally dispersed, and arrange a plurality of distributed box type ground stations at selected positions of the earth and rock dam site;
[0045] Step 2, clearly define the detection operation range, flight path and flight operation timetable of the unmanned flight platform controlled by each distributed box type ground station;
[0046] Step 3, use the unmanned flight platform to carry the infrared thermal imager and the high-definition visible light camera to continuously and with a certain degree of overlap, shoot and acquire the infrared images and visible light images of the earth and rock dam site within the monitoring range of the distributed box type ground station;
[0047] Step 4, transmit the infrared images and visible light images collected by the unmanned flight platform to the distributed box type ground station to which the unmanned flight platform belongs;
[0048] Step 5, the distributed box type ground station transmits the infrared images and visible light images to the deep convolutional neural network model;
[0049] Step 6, the deep convolutional neural network model identifies the dam leakage type: if the dam leakage type is slope leakage or piping, sends early warning information to the mobile terminal,
[0050] The early warning information comprises the dam leakage type, the latitude and longitude of the unmanned flight platform, the height of the unmanned flight platform, the time of collecting the infrared images by the unmanned flight platform, the infrared images and the corresponding visible light images.
[0051] Step 7, the engineering technician reviews whether the slope seepage occurs according to the seepage type, the infrared image and the visible light image received in the mobile terminal, and if it is confirmed that the slope seepage occurs, the seepage position is determined according to the latitude and longitude of the unmanned aerial platform, and emergency rescue is organized.
[0052] As shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the dam seepage type includes normal, low-temperature piping, high-temperature piping, low-temperature slope seepage or high-temperature slope seepage, and high temperature and low temperature are relative, and high temperature means that the temperature of the seepage water is higher than the background (i.e. normal slope). The deep convolutional neural network model focuses on the contour and texture features of the seepage outlet. The infrared radiation temperature result in each window is mapped to a certain color space (such as gray space, HSV color space or RGB color space) according to its maximum value and minimum value, and the color scale value in the image represents the corresponding temperature value. According to the research results, each day is divided into two time periods: the river water temperature is higher than the slope / dam foot accumulated water; the river water temperature is lower than the slope / dam foot accumulated water. When the river water temperature is higher than the dam slope, a high-temperature abnormal area with a trailing contour feature will appear in the infrared image, which is called high-temperature slope seepage. Since the infrared image is mapped to the color scale value according to the maximum value and the minimum value, the high temperature in the infrared image is represented by a larger (greater than 128) color scale value, and the low temperature in the infrared image is represented by a smaller (less than 128) color scale value.
[0053] If the deep convolutional neural network model judges that the dam seepage type is low-temperature piping, high-temperature piping, low-temperature slope seepage or high-temperature slope seepage, and the corresponding classification score is greater than or equal to 0.80, the warning information is sent to the mobile terminal. The mathematical expression for calculating the classification score is:
[0054]
[0055] wherein x i is the output of the fc-replaced layer, i = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.
[0056] As shown in Figure 3As shown, the first infrared image input deep convolutional neural network model is determined to be high-temperature piping, with a score of 0.93; the second infrared image input deep convolutional neural network model is determined to be low-temperature piping, with a score of 0.96; the third infrared image input deep convolutional neural network model is determined to be normal state, with a score of 1.00; the fourth infrared image input deep convolutional neural network model is determined to be high-temperature slope seepage, with a score of 1.00; the fifth infrared image input deep convolutional neural network model is determined to be low-temperature slope seepage, with a score of 0.99; and the sixth infrared image input deep convolutional neural network model is determined to be normal state, with a score of 0.94. The deep convolutional neural network model obtained by training includes:

[0058] training the deep convolutional neural network model using a dam seepage infrared image database, the dam seepage infrared image database including infrared images of a soil and rock dam site slope and a water surface in a normal state, infrared images in a low-temperature piping state, infrared images in a high-temperature piping state, infrared images in a low-temperature slope seepage state, and infrared images in a high-temperature slope seepage state collected at different distances and different angles;
[0059] based on the feature extractor AlexNet and the solver Adam, the deep convolutional neural network model constructs a mapping relationship between the infrared image as input and the dam seepage type as output, and iteratively trains the parameters of the deep convolutional neural network model;
[0060] after meeting the iteration stopping condition, the final deep convolutional neural network model is obtained.
[0061] The unmanned aerial vehicle-mounted automatic patrol and early warning device for soil and rock dam seepage danger is used to execute any one of the above methods, and includes a plurality of distributed box-type ground stations, a central control station, and a plurality of mobile terminals. The distributed box-type ground stations are in communication connection with the central control station, and the central control station and the mobile terminals are in communication connection;
[0062] The distributed box-type ground stations are arranged at the soil and rock dam site. The distributed box-type ground stations include a storage battery, a data repeater, a wireless transceiver, an infrared thermal imager, a high-definition visible light camera, a processor, and at least one unmanned flight platform. The processor is electrically connected to the storage battery, the data repeater, and the wireless transceiver. The infrared thermal imager and the high-definition visible light camera are installed on the unmanned flight platform, and are used to acquire infrared images and visible light images of the soil and rock dam site, and send them to the central control station.
[0063] The central control station comprises a wireless receiver, a wireless transmitter and a control processor for determining the type of dam leakage at the earth-rock dam site, storing the collected infrared images and visible light images and sending early warning information to the mobile terminal.
[0064] The mobile terminal is configured to receive and view the early warning information.
[0065] An electronic device, comprising a memory, a processor and a computer program stored in the memory and executable on the processor, wherein the processor implements the steps of the method of any one of the preceding claims when executing the program.
[0066] A computer readable storage medium having a computer program stored thereon, wherein the computer program implements the steps of the method of any one of the preceding claims when executed by a processor.
[0067] Before training, the initial learning rate, the mini-batch, the maximum number of iterations and the validation frequency of the deep convolutional neural network model are set.
[0068] After every set number of iterations, the learning rate is multiplied by a set reduction factor to obtain a new learning rate.
[0069] The dam leakage infrared image database comprises infrared images (1400) of the earth-rock dam slope in a normal state and the water surface in a normal state, infrared images (1200) of the low-temperature piping state, infrared images (1200) of the high-temperature piping state, infrared images (1200) of the low-temperature slope leakage state and infrared images (1200) of the high-temperature slope leakage state collected at different distances and different angles. The slope leakage state has a clear tailing profile feature in the infrared image; the piping state has the feature of spreading around the piping outlet in the infrared image; the temperature distribution of the slope in the normal state and the water surface in the normal state is uniform. The high temperature is represented by a large (greater than 128) color scale value in the infrared image, and the low temperature is represented by a small (less than 128) color scale value in the infrared image.
[0070] Before training, the initial learning rate, the mini-batch, the maximum number of iterations and the validation frequency of the deep convolutional neural network model are set.
[0071] After every set number of iterations, the learning rate is multiplied by a set reduction factor to obtain a new learning rate.
[0072] Specifically, the initial learning rate of the deep convolutional neural network model is set to 0.001, the mini-batch is set to 64, the maximum number of iterations is set to 60, and the validation frequency is set to 50; after every 10 iterations, the learning rate is multiplied by a reduction factor of 0.1 to reduce the learning rate. In addition, to improve the training efficiency, the learning rate of the fully connected layer is set to 5 times that of other layers.
[0073] As shown in Figure 4 , the deep convolutional neural network model is a deep convolutional neural network based on transfer learning and trained, and the feature extractor is AlexNet. Alternatively, the feature extractor can be one or more of SqueezeNet, ResNet, GoogLeNet or VGG-19.
[0074] The models of the wireless receiver, the wireless transmitting device, the control processor, the central control station, the plurality of mobile terminals, the battery, the data relay, the wireless transceiver, the infrared thermal imager, the high-definition visible light camera, the processor and the unmanned aerial vehicle are many in the prior art, and the person skilled in the art can select appropriate models according to actual needs. The present embodiment will not be exemplified one by one.
[0075] The framework of the deep convolutional neural network model includes the feature extractor AlexNet, the fc-replaced layer, the sof-replaced layer and the out-replaced layer, and the feature extractor AlexNet, the fc-replaced layer, the sof-replaced layer and the out-replaced layer are connected in sequence. For details, see Table 1.
[0076] Table 1
[0077]
[0078] The learning rate of the fully connected layer in Table 1 is set to 5 times that of other layers.
[0079] As shown in Figure 5 , the unmanned aerial vehicle carrying equipment has an infrared thermal imager, a high-definition visible light camera and a lighting device, which are used to collect infrared images and visible light images of the earth and rock dam and transmit the collected images to the box-shaped ground station to which they belong. The circuit of the lighting device is in a normally open state by default and is closed only when the unmanned aerial vehicle is in flight operation and the intensity of natural light is weak.
[0080] The model of the unmanned aerial vehicle is a multi-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle or a vertical take-off and landing fixed-wing unmanned aerial vehicle with vertical take-off and landing function. As Figure 6As shown, the distributed box-type ground station can serve as a storage for the unmanned flight platform. The distributed box-type ground station is laid out in the dam site in a complete initial state, and the unmanned flight platform is stored in the distributed box-type ground station. When the unmanned flight platform is started for a flight task, the box of the distributed box-type ground station is opened from the top to release the unmanned flight platform. After the unmanned flight platform completes the task, it automatically returns to the take-off point and enters the opened box of the distributed box-type ground station from the top. After the unmanned flight platform is recovered, the top of the box of the distributed box-type ground station is closed to protect the unmanned flight platform and other devices in the ground station.
[0081] The unmanned flight platform is provided with two foot supports, and the charging contacts of the unmanned flight platform are independently arranged at the bottom of the foot supports of the unmanned flight platform, that is, the anode charging contact 10 is arranged at the bottom of one foot support, and the cathode charging contact 11 is arranged at the bottom of the other foot support. The distributed box-type ground station includes n (n is an integer greater than or equal to 1) unmanned flight platforms, and the energy supply module is arranged at the bottom of the internal box of the box-type ground station and includes a charging cable, a photovoltaic charging device and a battery, which can directly contact the charging contacts of the unmanned flight platform. The power supply electrodes of the energy supply module are alternately arranged in the form of sheet-shaped anode conductive plates 13 and cathode conductive plates 12 and cover the bottom of the internal box of the box-type ground station. The charging connection mode is a "face-to-face" connection mode, and as long as the foot supports of the unmanned flight platform are located in the correct charging plate area when landing, the unmanned flight platform can be successfully charged. This eliminates the harsh requirements for the positioning of the unmanned flight platform in the current "point-to-point" plug-in charging connection mode.
[0082] As shown, Figure 7 The unmanned flight platform realizes flight control through the unmanned aerial vehicle flight control system, realizes load control through the unmanned aerial vehicle load control system, transmits the collected infrared images and visible light images to the distributed box-type ground station through the image transmission system, and transmits the infrared images and visible light images to the central control station through the data transmission module of the distributed box-type ground station. The collected infrared images and visible light images are stored in the data temporary storage module.
[0083] The mobile terminal includes a man-machine interaction module and a first communication module, the man-machine interaction module is used for viewing early warning information or retrieving infrared images and visible light images, and the first communication module is used for communicating with the distributed box-type ground station and the central control station.
[0084] The central control station comprises a data storage module, a man-machine interaction module, a deep convolutional neural network model identification module, an infrared image preprocessing module and a second communication module. The data storage module is used for storing infrared images, visible light images, the height of the unmanned aerial vehicle when collecting the infrared images and the time of the unmanned aerial vehicle when collecting the infrared images. The deep convolutional neural network model identification module is used for carrying and running a deep convolutional neural network model. The infrared image preprocessing module is used for preprocessing the infrared images to obtain images with appropriate sizes. The second communication module is used for realizing data interaction with a mobile terminal or a distributed box-type ground station.
[0085] The infrared thermal imager and the high-definition visible light camera carried by the unmanned flight platform automatically and continuously collect infrared images and visible light images of the predetermined range of the earth dam back slope and dam toe with a certain degree of overlap, so as to ensure that the collected infrared images and visible light images fully cover the predetermined range of the earth dam back slope and dam toe.
[0086] Further, the infrared images and the visible light images are collected separately and simultaneously, so as to ensure that the infrared images and the visible light images are collected and saved one by one in the form of image pairs. Each image is attached with information such as the longitude and latitude of the unmanned aerial vehicle, the height of the unmanned aerial vehicle when collecting the infrared images and the time of the unmanned aerial vehicle when collecting the infrared images.
[0087] Step 5: The dam infrared images and visible light images collected by the unmanned flight platform are transmitted to the data relay device 3 in the distributed box-type ground station to which the unmanned flight platform belongs through the real-time image transmission system of the unmanned flight platform.
[0088] Step 6: The infrared images and visible light images temporarily stored in the data relay device in the distributed box-type ground station are transmitted to the remote central control station 5 through the wireless transceiver device 4.
[0089] The warning information comprises the seepage type of the earth dam, the longitude and latitude of the unmanned flight platform, the flight height of the unmanned flight platform, the time of the unmanned flight platform when collecting the infrared images, the infrared images, the corresponding visible light images and the number of the infrared images. The unmanned flight platform is a multi-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle or a vertical take-off and landing fixed-wing unmanned aerial vehicle with a vertical take-off and landing function, so as to realize the vertical take-off and landing of the unmanned flight platform from the top of the box of the distributed box-type ground station.
[0090] The central control station can remotely control the flight and load of each unmanned flight platform.
[0091] Before inputting the deep convolutional neural network model, the size of the infrared image is scaled, and the infrared images collected by infrared thermal imagers of different models are uniformly scaled to the size required by the input layer of the deep convolutional neural network model. For example, the feature extractor of the deep convolutional neural network model selects AlexNet, and the received infrared image is uniformly scaled to 227x227x3.
[0092] The central control station stores the received infrared image in the form of a pair of image numbers, that is, two infrared images and a visible light image form an image pair, and share a number.
[0093] Embodiment two
[0094] The temperature field in the soil body without seepage flow is controlled by pure heat conduction. When there is seepage flow, the heat conduction intensity in the soil body will change due to the migration of water in the soil body. When the permeability coefficient of the dam soil body is greater than 10 -6 m / s, the soil conduction heat transfer will be obviously overtaken by the advection heat transfer caused by fluid motion, and even a little liquid flow will cause the soil temperature to adapt to the temperature of the seepage water, thereby causing local irregular changes in the original dam soil temperature field. Therefore, the leakage of the earth-rock dam can be indirectly monitored by temperature measurement.
[0095] Infrared thermal imaging breaks through the single-dimensional limitation of traditional point-type temperature measurement technology, can present a two-dimensional continuous temperature field of the sensed object, has the characteristics of intuitiveness, continuity and wide coverage, and is especially suitable for sensing large temperature fields. Moreover, the thermal imager can normally work at night without light, and therefore the measurement result has spatiotemporal continuity. The combination of infrared thermal imaging and low-altitude unmanned flight platform can realize efficient, flexible and comprehensive coverage of the earth-rock dam leakage danger patrol.
[0096] In view of the severe situation of earth-rock dam flood prevention and the urgent need for full-coverage leakage monitoring means, the present application comprehensively utilizes passive infrared imaging technology, unmanned flight platform, deep learning theory and method to develop an unmanned aerial vehicle-mounted automatic patrol and early warning method and system for earth-rock dam leakage danger, and provides technical support for guaranteeing the long-term service of earth-rock dams and flood prevention and disaster reduction.
[0097] The main parameters of the unmanned flight platform, the airborne infrared thermal imager and the airborne visible light camera used in the embodiments of the present application are shown in Table 2, Table 3 and Table 4, respectively.

The leakage judgment module of the present application automatically identifies the leakage of the embankment based on the infrared image of the embankment. The mobile terminal finally receives the early warning information as shown in Figure 8 or Fig. 9, such as Figure 8 including infrared images and visible light images, the leakage type is low-temperature piping, the longitude of the unmanned aerial platform is 32°8'14.4467000000000412", the latitude of the unmanned aerial platform is 118°26'7.6474000000623343", the flight height of the unmanned aerial platform is 19m, the time is 2021-08-13 14:21, and the image pair number is 2021-08-13-6109;
