Abstract

Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to a system for predicting the safe working time limits of power line inspectors based on electroencephalogram (EEG) monitoring. Specifically, it relates to a system for predicting the safe working time limits of power line inspectors based on deep learning technology and EEG monitoring technology. Background Technology
[0002] Power line inspection work often involves a large amount of work at height, requiring a safe working time limit prediction system to predict the safe working time limits of inspection personnel in advance. This provides a reference for on-site work scheduling and ensures the safe conduct of inspection work. Power line inspection personnel need to maintain a high level of concentration for extended periods while working at heights, which often leads to fatigue, impairing judgment and reaction capabilities, increasing the probability of dangerous accidents, and affecting the stable operation of the power system. Therefore, it is necessary to adopt a reliable method for predicting safe working time limits. This method can assess the physiological state of inspection personnel based on physiological signal monitoring, predict their safe working time limits in advance, provide a reference for on-site work scheduling, effectively protect the safety of inspection personnel, improve inspection efficiency, and ensure the stable operation of the power system.
[0003] Monitoring fatigue levels is crucial for the safety of power line inspection personnel working at heights. Using electroencephalography (EEG) signals as a physiological assessment tool can provide a more accurate and objective evaluation, allowing for the prediction of safe working hours for inspection personnel. By collecting EEG signals before work and monitoring them in real time during operations, the condition of inspection personnel can be better assessed, helping to predict safe working hours, assisting in on-site work scheduling, and reducing the probability of accidents.
[0004] Using deep learning technology to process EEG signals offers several advantages for predicting the safe working time limits of power line inspection personnel. First, EEG signals can help capture the real-time working status of inspection personnel, such as fatigue or focus, thus more accurately predicting their working time limits. Second, deep learning technology can facilitate complex classification and feature extraction of EEG signals, leading to a better understanding of the work characteristics and status of inspection personnel. This mechanism can help predict factors such as the inspection personnel's fatigue level, mental state, work ability, and reaction time, providing a reference for on-site work scheduling and ensuring safe operation. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a system for predicting the safe working time limit of power inspection personnel based on electroencephalogram (EEG) monitoring.
[0006] The technical solution adopted in this invention is: a power inspection personnel safety work time limit prediction system based on EEG monitoring, including an EEG monitoring power safety helmet (1) and a safety work time limit prediction module (2). The EEG monitoring power safety helmet (1) collects EEG signals from the power inspection personnel's brain in real time and transmits the data to the safety work time limit prediction module (2) through 5G data transmission. The safety work time limit prediction module (2) proposes a long sequence time prediction model (LSTPModel) to process the EEG signals of the power inspection personnel, predict the safety work time limit of the power inspection personnel before the operation, and perform safety work time limit prediction calibration based on the real-time transmitted EEG signals during the operation, providing a reference for on-site work command and dispatch.
[0007] The aforementioned electroencephalogram (EEG) monitoring electric safety helmet (1) includes: a power supply module (11), EEG acquisition electrodes (12), a bioelectric signal digital-to-analog converter (13), an MCU processor (14), and a 5G communication module (15). The power supply module (11) is powered by a battery and obtains different operating voltages required by different chips on each module through a voltage conversion chip to power each module. The EEG acquisition electrodes (12) are integrated in the shell of the electric safety helmet, with a total of two electrodes distributed at FP1 and FP2 in the 10-20 international standard lead electrode distribution. The electrodes are connected to the bioelectric signal digital-to-analog converter (13) through wires to collect EEG signals from different brain regions. The described bioelectric signal digital-to-analog converter (13) has a built-in programmable gain amplifier (PGA), internal reference, and on-chip oscillator to perform digital-to-analog conversion on EEG signals; the described MCU processor (14) adopts an Xtensa-LX6 core with a working frequency of 300MHz and communicates with the bioelectric signal digital-to-analog converter (12) via the SPI bus. It is responsible for controlling the bioelectric signal digital-to-analog converter (12) to collect EEG signals at a fixed sampling frequency f = 250Hz and send them to the MCU processor (14) via the SPI bus. After the transmission is completed, the MCU processor (14) transmits the EEG signal data to the safe working time limit prediction module (2) via the 5G communication module (15).
[0008] The safety work time limit prediction module (2) proposes a long sequence time prediction model (LSTPModel), which is deployed in the cloud to process the original EEG signal, extract the time dimension sequence characteristics of the EEG signal, and predict the expected safety work time limit of the operator.
[0009] The proposed Long Sequence Temporal Prediction (LSTP) Model comprises a Gram field transform module, an adaptive shape convolution module, and an Informer encoder module connected in series. The Gram field transform module first concatenates the EEG signals from two channels to obtain a long sequence. Then, it performs the Gram field transform on this long sequence, transforming the one-dimensional sequence information into two-dimensional image information. The specific steps of the Gram field transform algorithm are as follows:
[0010] 1) Convert the EEG signal data X = {x1, x2, ..., x...} n Normalized to the interval [-1, 1], the normalized data is denoted as X. ′ ={x ′ 1,x ′ 2,...,x ′ n}
[0011] 2) Convert the normalized data to polar coordinates, including the polar angle σ. i =cos -1 x i ′ and polar axis r i =t i / N,x i ′ t represents the normalized value of this data point. i Represents the position in the sequence.
[0012] 3) Define the inner product between two sequence points as... <x i ,x j >=cos(σ i +σ j The Gram matrix is calculated using the inner product:
[0013]
[0014] This matrix with a custom inner product is the result of the Gram angle field transform algorithm. It is an n×n square matrix that ultimately transforms the n-dimensional frequency domain feature sequence into n×n×1-dimensional image data.
[0015] The adaptive shape convolution module uses adaptive shape convolution to perform convolution operations on image data. The adaptive shape convolution module includes, in sequence:
[0016] 1) A data input layer, the input data being the image data output by the Gram field transform module;
[0017] 2) An adaptive shape convolutional layer consists of 45 adaptive shape convolutional kernels. Each adaptive shape convolutional kernel is composed of N convolution points with their respective offsets β = {β1, β2, ..., β...}.N It consists of offsets of different lengths in different directions, using PReLU as the activation function. Where N, β, and λ are parameters obtained through training. With N and β obtained through training, the adaptive special-shaped convolutional kernel can adaptively adjust the size and shape of the convolutional kernel according to the characteristics of the input image data, and adaptively and efficiently extract the hidden EEG signal time-dependent sequence features in the EEG sequence Gram field image data to obtain the time-series feature map.
[0018] 3) A batch channel normalization layer normalizes the temporal feature map in parallel along the batch dimension and the channel dimension. Then, the batch dimension normalized output and the channel dimension normalized output are weighted and summed with the adaptive parameters α and 1-α, respectively, to obtain the normalized output of the batch channel normalization layer, which accelerates the model training process and reduces the degree of overfitting.
[0019] 4) A Dropout layer randomly selects a neuron in the previous layer with probability p1 so that it does not output anything, where p1 = 0.25;
[0020] 5) A Flatten layer transforms multidimensional data into one-dimensional data, yielding a time-series feature sequence;
[0021] The adaptive shape convolution module extracts the hidden EEG signal time-dependent sequence features in the EEG sequence Gram field image data through adaptive shape convolution, and finally obtains the high-level semantic feature sequence.
[0022] The Informer encoder module consists of three Informer encoders and a linear regression layer connected in series. The Informer encoder receives high-level semantic feature sequences, processes the temporal feature sequences using a probabilistic sparse self-attention mechanism, and uses self-attention distillation to filter the dominant attention weights, reducing the model size. It then performs further feature extraction on the temporal feature sequences to obtain the correlation between different channels in the temporal feature sequences. The output of the Informer encoder is input into a linear regression layer, and regression yields the prediction results of the safe working time limit for power inspection personnel.
[0023] The long sequence time prediction model (LSTPModel) is pre-trained based on a pre-built database of safe working time for power inspectors. Then, it is federated training based on ten minutes of EEG signal data collected by power inspectors wearing EEG monitoring power safety helmets (1) before high-altitude operations. The model is then personalized and fine-tuned to obtain preliminary prediction results of the safe working time limit for power inspectors, providing a preliminary reference for the command and dispatch of on-site inspection work.
[0024] During their work, power inspectors wear EEG monitoring safety helmets (1) to collect EEG signals in real time and transmit the data to the safe work time limit prediction module (2) via 5G data transmission. The safe work time limit prediction module (2) analyzes the EEG signals in real time and corrects the preliminary prediction results of the safe work time limit of the power inspectors in real time, providing reference and safety guarantee for the command and dispatch of on-site work.
