The safety monitoring of the prior art for power operation is mostly focused on the monitoring of workers, such as the monitoring of non-standard behavior of workers and the monitoring of the standardization of workers wearing safety protection equipment, but ignores the fact that workers are in a high-altitude scaffold, and some behaviors of workers in ordinary environments such as reaching out do not pose a safety problem, but reaching out and other behaviors in a high-altitude scaffold do pose a safety problem. SUMMARY

[0023] It should be noted that the following detailed description is exemplary in nature and is intended to provide further description of the present application. Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which the present application belongs.

[0024] It should be noted that the terms used herein are only intended to describe specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the exemplary embodiments according to the present application.

[0025] In the case of no conflict, the embodiments in the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0026] Embodiment one

[0027] As shown in Figure 1 The present embodiment discloses a power operation site safety monitoring method based on image recognition, comprising:

[0028] Obtaining an image to be detected containing a scaffold and an operation personnel;

[0029] Using a human key point recognition algorithm to recognize the image to be detected, obtaining a key point of the operation personnel;

[0030] Using a frame recognition model to recognize the image to be detected, obtaining a scaffold frame;

[0031] According to the position relationship between the key point of the high-altitude personnel and the scaffold frame, it is obtained whether there is a high-altitude unsafe behavior of the operation personnel on the scaffold.

[0032] In the present embodiment, the dangerous behavior of the operation personnel on the scaffold includes a body stretching behavior, i.e. the body is stretched backward, forward or outward to perform operation, the human key point is offset, and the high-altitude body stretching behavior is very dangerous for the position located high above the scaffold.

[0033] The quality of the image has a great influence on the detection effect, and the image is easily affected by factors such as collection equipment and light in the image collection process, therefore, the image to be detected needs to be preprocessed.

[0034] In the present embodiment, the preprocessing includes uniform light processing and denoising processing of the image. The Mask uniform light method can eliminate the image light contrast, enhance the image light small contrast, and make the image illumination and brightness consistent. The wavelet transform can preserve the frequency information and spatial information of the image.

[0035] The embodiment obtains an image to be detected containing a scaffold and a worker, identifies key points of the worker, and identifies a scaffold frame to determine a distance between the worker and the scaffold frame in two dimensions of depth and level. Once a certain key point of the upper body of the worker is beyond a preset threshold relative to the scaffold frame, it indicates that the worker has a leaning behavior on the scaffold, resulting in a certain distance between the human body and the scaffold.

[0036] In the embodiment, an openpose extraction model is used to extract key points of the worker. The openpose extraction model can extract human key point information using a basic two-dimensional image.

[0037] The openpose extraction model uses a bottom-up structure to extract human key points, including a head vertex, a head center point, a left shoulder point, a right shoulder point, a shoulder center point, a body center point, a left leg center point, and a right leg center point.

[0038] According to the obtained key point information of the worker, pixel point coordinates and depth information of each key point are determined. The position relationship with the scaffold is determined in the horizontal direction to determine the distance between the worker and the scaffold in the image to be detected. The distance between the worker and the scaffold in the image to be detected is determined in the depth direction according to the depth information of the key points.

[0039] Since multiple surfaces of the scaffold can be used by the worker to climb and perform work, the position relationship between the worker and the scaffold is determined from two aspects to avoid the problem of inaccurate judgment due to the same depth distance between the worker and the scaffold, but a leaning behavior occurs in the horizontal direction, resulting in inaccurate judgment.

[0040] In the embodiment, a frame recognition model is used to identify the image to be detected to obtain a scaffold frame. Specifically, a scaffold mask image is binarized, and the mask region is labeled as red when obtained. The region can be easily labeled by binarization. The SUSAN corner detection algorithm is used to detect the corners of the binarized image to obtain the corner coordinates of the scaffold.

[0041] In the embodiment, the binarized scaffold mask image is first dilated and then eroded using the image closing operation principle of image morphology.

[0042] According to the obtained corner coordinates of the scaffold, line information of the entire scaffold is obtained by connecting lines. The scaffold lines are traversed to obtain pixel points and depth distances of each point of the scaffold lines.

[0043] In the embodiment, the scaffold frame information is obtained by using the corner point coordinates, and the position relationship of the worker relative to the scaffold is determined according to the scaffold frame information and the depth distance and the pixel point position of the key points of the worker.

[0044] If the depth distance between the key points of the worker and each position of the scaffold frame is within the preset first threshold range, the worker does not have an unsafe behavior on the scaffold.

[0045] If the depth distance between the key points of the worker and each position of the scaffold frame is outside the preset first threshold range, the worker has a high-altitude body-probing unsafe behavior on the scaffold.

[0046] If the pixel distance between the key points of the worker and each position of the scaffold frame is within the preset second threshold range, the worker does not have an unsafe behavior on the scaffold.

[0047] If the pixel distance between the key points of the worker and each position of the scaffold frame is outside the preset second threshold range, the worker has a high-altitude body-probing unsafe behavior on the scaffold.

[0048] It should be noted that the first threshold and the second threshold can be set according to actual conditions, so as to indicate that the worker exceeds the safe distance relative to the scaffold.
