Description

[0047] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are some embodiments of the present invention, but not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0048] Current optical imaging systems are highly sensitive to the natural environment and are easily affected by weather conditions such as rain, snow, and fog, making single-mode optical image information insufficient for accurate analysis of scene damage. Infrared polarization imaging technology utilizes the polarization characteristics of the target's radiated light waves to significantly enhance the difference between camouflaged or dimly lit targets and the background, filter out interference, improve signal contrast, highlight target contour information, and achieve high-precision extraction of scene change features. This has potential application advantages in the field of damage scene change detection.

[0049] Machine learning-based optical image detection methods, represented by deep learning, have attracted increasing attention. They employ a layered structure similar to neural networks, consisting of multiple layers such as convolutional layers, pooling layers, and fully connected layers, with different layers performing different functions. In the field of image change detection, deep learning technology is increasingly demonstrating its advantages in accuracy and robustness. It uses deep neural networks to learn feature representations suitable for change detection from images, thereby improving change detection performance.

[0050] However, while directly applying these deep learning change detection models to infrared polarization imaging can detect changes in the target scene, it fails to fully utilize the polarization information of different targets, thus affecting the detection accuracy.

[0051] In view of this, given the difficulty of fully utilizing the polarization information of the target to detect scene changes using existing technologies, this invention provides a scene change detection and damage assessment method based on infrared polarization imaging. This method can fully utilize the infrared polarization characteristics of the scene, improve the accuracy of scene change detection, and provide a new technical approach for damage performance assessment.

[0052] The following describes the specific implementation of the above concept.

[0053] Please refer to Figure 1 This invention provides a scene change detection method based on infrared polarization imaging, the method comprising:

[0054] Step 100: Obtain infrared intensity, infrared polarization degree, and polarization angle images of the target scene before and after the change;

[0055] Step 102: Perform feature registration on the infrared intensity, infrared polarization degree, and polarization angle images before and after the change, respectively, to obtain the registered infrared intensity, infrared polarization degree, and polarization angle image group.

[0056] This step 102 involves performing feature registration on the infrared intensity images before and after the change to obtain an infrared intensity image group, performing feature registration on the infrared polarization degree images before and after the change to obtain an infrared polarization degree image group, and performing feature registration on the polarization angle images before and after the change to obtain a polarization angle image group.

[0057] Step 104: Perform intra-group difference processing on the registered infrared intensity, infrared polarization degree, and polarization angle image groups respectively to obtain three kinds of two-phase difference images corresponding to infrared intensity, infrared polarization degree, and polarization angle.

[0058] Step 106: Based on the obtained two-phase difference images, one or more candidate change point image blocks are obtained through image block extraction and filtering.

[0059] Step 108: Input the extracted candidate change point image patch into the trained detection model to obtain the change detection result; the detection model is constructed based on the PCANet network and the SVM classification and detection module.

[0060] Step 110: Based on the change detection results, the final change detection image of the target scene is obtained through region filling and noise filtering. The final change detection image of the target scene can display the actual areas in the target scene that are identified as having changed in image form.

[0061] In this embodiment of the invention, infrared intensity, infrared polarization degree, and polarization angle images of the target scene before and after the change are used as detection input data. Combined with a deep learning detection model, automated target scene change detection is achieved, thereby quickly identifying the changed areas in the scene. This fully utilizes infrared polarization intensity, polarization degree, and polarization angle information to improve the accuracy of scene change detection and provides a new technical approach for assessing the damage effectiveness of scene changes caused by natural disasters, human-caused damage, and other factors.

[0062] The following description Figure 1 The execution method for each step is shown.

[0063] Optionally, for step 100, images of the infrared intensity, infrared polarization degree, and polarization angle of the target scene before and after the change are obtained, including:

[0064] Using a polarization detection system, the radiance of the target scene before and after the change in different polarization directions is measured, and the infrared intensity, infrared polarization degree, and polarization angle images of the target scene before and after the change are calculated respectively.

[0065] Among them, the radiance of the target scene before and after the change in different polarization directions can be measured by measuring three different polarization directions of 0°, 60° and 120° before and after the change, or by measuring four different polarization directions of 0°, 45°, 90° and 135° before and after the change. No further limitation is given here.

[0066] Using the above embodiments, the radiance in different polarization directions can be measured using a polarization detection system, and the infrared intensity, infrared polarization degree, and polarization angle images of the target scene before and after the change can be determined. In other embodiments, the infrared intensity, infrared polarization degree, and polarization angle images before and after the change can also be directly read.

[0067] Optionally, for step 102, feature registration is performed on the infrared intensity, infrared polarization degree, and polarization angle images before and after the change, including:

[0068] The MSER-SURF feature fusion registration method was used to perform feature registration on the infrared intensity, infrared polarization degree, and polarization angle images before and after the change.

[0069] Sensor shifts may occur when measuring data before and after changes. Feature registration can eliminate image differences introduced by external factors. The above embodiment uses the MSER-SURF feature fusion registration method to achieve feature registration, which has the advantages of fast processing speed and high processing accuracy, and is more suitable for infrared image feature registration.

[0070] For step 104, the registered infrared intensity, infrared polarization degree, and polarization angle image groups should be subjected to intra-group difference processing to maintain consistency, that is, both should be either the result after the change minus the result before the change, or both should be the result before the change minus the result after the change.

[0071] Optionally, for step 106, based on the obtained two-phase difference images, one or more candidate change point image patches are obtained through image patch extraction and filtering, including:

[0072] Based on the preset image block size k1×k1, the obtained two-phase differential images are cropped using a sliding window with a window size of k1×k1 and a step size of k1. The cropped image block has no missing or overlapping areas relative to the original two-phase differential images. If the cropped image size is less than k1×k1, zero-padding is performed to obtain a k1×k1 image block; k1 is a positive integer.

[0073] The obtained image block is binarized according to the preset threshold; the binarization process includes setting the pixels in the image block that exceed the corresponding threshold to 1 and the rest to 0.

[0074] Output the image patch with the non-zero matrix as the candidate change point image patch.

[0075] The above embodiment cropps the three types of two-phase difference images into k1×k1 image blocks, and then performs binarization processing. Taking the two-phase difference image corresponding to infrared intensity as an example, the preset corresponding threshold is a grayscale threshold. In the cropped image block, if the grayscale of a pixel is greater than the preset grayscale threshold, the pixel is set to 1; otherwise, it is set to 0, thus achieving binarization. Binarization processing can filter out pixels that have not changed or have only slightly changed in the temporal difference image. After binarization processing, an image block with an all-zero matrix can be considered to have no change information. The above processing is beneficial for redundancy removal, reducing computational load, and improving change detection efficiency.

[0076] Optionally, for step 108, the detection model includes two PCA layers, one output layer, and one SVM classification and detection module;

[0077] The first PCA layer is used to perform PCA convolution operation on the input candidate change point image patch and output a feature map.

[0078] The second PCA layer is used to perform PCA convolution operation on the feature map output by the first PCA layer again, and output a new feature map.

[0079] The output layer is used to perform layer normalization on the feature maps output by the first PCA layer and the second PCA layer respectively, and then merge them in the L2 dimension to obtain the final output feature map; L2 represents the number of convolutional kernels in the second PCA layer, which can usually be determined based on experience.

[0080] The SVM classification and detection module is used to perform classification and detection based on the final output feature map to obtain change detection results.

[0081] Principal Component Analysis (PCANet) network models are characterized by their simple structure and ease of training, and they can easily produce good results with a small number of samples. However, the output layer of PCANet takes too long to encode features, making it difficult to meet real-time requirements. Furthermore, change detection does not rely on deep features, and directly calling the model does not easily achieve ideal detection results. To address this issue, this invention proposes a detection model based on the Fast-PCANet network and an SVM classification and detection module, such as... Figure 2 As shown, a Fast-PCANet network is used, taking candidate change point image patches as input, and performing convolution operations on the input data using L1 PCA convolution filters of size k1×k1 to obtain N. block ×L1 feature maps of size k1×k1 are generated, which yields the feature map of PCA convolutional layer 1, where L1 represents the number of convolution kernels used in the first PCA layer for PCA convolution operations, and N... blockThis represents the number of input image patches; then, the feature map of PCA convolutional layer 1 is used as input, and L2 PCA convolutional filters of size L1×k2×k2 are used to perform convolution operations on the feature map of PCA convolutional layer 1 to obtain N. block The feature maps of size k1×k1 are obtained by generating L1×L2 feature maps, which represents the feature map of PCA convolutional layer 2. L2 represents the number of convolutional kernels in the second PCA layer. The feature maps of PCA convolutional layer 1 and PCA convolutional layer 2 are then merged in the L2 dimension after layer normalization to obtain the final output feature map. Finally, the final output feature map is classified and detected by support vector machine (SVM).

[0082] In the above embodiments, the present invention adjusts the output layer to obtain the Fast-PCANet network, which is designed for the characteristics of infrared polarization imaging change detection. Compared with the complex and time-consuming output layer form of the traditional PCANet network, the processing speed is significantly improved, which can effectively reduce the scene change detection time. Furthermore, it can fully integrate multi-dimensional infrared polarization information to improve the scene change detection accuracy and provide technical support for realizing real-time scene change detection.

[0083] Optionally, for step 110, based on the change detection results, the final change detection image result of the target scene is obtained through region filling and noise filtering, including:

[0084] Based on the change detection results, the changed regions are identified in the target scene image;

[0085] The closed operation is used to fill the determined change areas in the target scene image;

[0086] Median filtering is used to remove noise from the identified change areas in the target scene image, resulting in the final change detection image of the target scene.

[0087] The above embodiments, based on change detection results, process the final change detection image of the target scene for display through region filling and noise filtering, making the display results more intuitive. Furthermore, the final change detection image of the target scene can also be displayed in color to differentiate between missed and false detection areas.

[0088] This invention also provides a damage assessment method based on infrared polarization imaging, the method comprising:

[0089] Using the scene change detection method described in any of the above embodiments, the final change detection image result of the target scene is obtained;

[0090] Based on the final change detection image results of the target scene, the degree of damage is assessed.

[0091] Using the above embodiments, the degree of damage can be assessed based on the final change detection image results of the target scene. For example, the damage ratio can be assessed based on the area ratio of the changed region in the target scene, and the damage area can be assessed based on the specific location of the changed region in the target scene.

The device embodiment can be implemented through software, hardware, or a combination of both. From a hardware perspective, as...
