[0046] The present invention is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments so that those skilled in the art can better understand the present invention and implement it, but the embodiments are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0047] In addition, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. The components of the embodiments of the present application described and shown in the drawings here can be arranged and designed in various configurations. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present application provided in the drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the application claimed for protection, but merely represents the selected embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments of the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without making creative work belong to the scope of protection of the present application.

[0048] Reference Figure 1 As shown, the present invention provides a method for quantitative recognition of transmission line monitoring images, the method comprising:

[0049] S100, acquiring monitoring images and equipment parameters; the monitoring images include a target depth value; the equipment parameters include: transmission line tower spacing, safety distance, line elevation value and sag limit value;

[0050] In step S100, the power transmission line monitoring device is generally fixedly installed, and the monitoring image and equipment parameters of various equipment are collected through the monitoring device, wherein the monitoring image also includes the target depth value in the image, and the equipment parameters include the transmission line tower spacing, safety distance, line elevation value, sag limit value and safety distance limit value. The line elevation value refers to the distance from a certain point along the plumb line direction to the absolute base surface, and the sag limit value is the distance between the maximum sag of the overhead line and the ground.

[0051] S200, identifying the monitoring image according to a convolution algorithm to generate a recognition image;

[0052] In step S200, the monitoring image is recognized by a convolution algorithm to obtain a recognition image, thereby realizing the recognition of common intrusions (cranes, trailers, excavators, etc.) and targets such as wildfires.

[0053] S300, inputting the recognition image into a monocular depth estimation model to generate depth information;

[0054] In step S300, the steps before inputting the recognition image into the monocular depth estimation model include: inputting the monitoring image and the target depth value into a deep neural network to generate a monocular depth estimation model.

[0055] In actual application scenarios, the monocular depth estimation model is trained based on a training data set, which includes monitoring images collected by the monitoring device and target depth values ​​included in the monitoring images. The monitoring images and target depth values ​​are input into the deep neural network to train the monocular depth estimation model. When the identification image to be screened is input again, the monocular depth estimation model can evaluate the depth information of each area in the identification image, that is, the depth map. Among them, the height information of the line tower and the intrusion is used as a constraint condition of the monocular depth estimation model. After adding this constraint condition, the results obtained by the monocular depth estimation model can be more accurate.

[0056] S400, performing geometric analysis on the depth information to generate relative height information;

[0057] In step S400, the depth information of each region is analyzed according to the analysis to obtain the relative height information of the target in the recognition image.

[0058] S500, acquiring a depth threshold from the depth information according to the transmission line tower spacing and the safety distance;

[0059] In step S500, a corresponding depth threshold is selected from the depth information based on the transmission line tower spacing and the safety distance.

[0060] S600, generating a height range according to the line elevation value, the sag limit value, the safety distance and the relative height information;

[0061] In step S600, the corresponding height range is defined according to the line elevation, sag limit, safety distance and relative height information, wherein the line elevation value refers to the distance from a certain point to the absolute base plane along the plumb line direction, and the sag limit is the distance between the maximum sag of the overhead line and the ground.

[0062] S700, generating a mask image according to the depth threshold and the height range;

[0063] In step S700, the step of generating a mask image according to the depth threshold and the height range includes: forming a focus area by enveloping the depth threshold and the height range; and generating a mask image according to the focus area.

[0064] In actual application scenarios, the area formed by the depth threshold and the height range envelope is the focus area. The mask image of the focus area is obtained, and the mask image is constructed for each fixed camera. The intrinsic and extrinsic parameters of the camera are known when installed, and the scale factor of the scene is obtained in advance based on the pinhole imaging model. The actual scene focus area can be determined according to the threshold. The actual scene is the world coordinate, and the captured image has image coordinates. The vertex coordinates of the actual scene focus area can be obtained according to the tower coordinates, and the vertex coordinates are mapped to the image coordinates to obtain the mask image.

[0065] The threshold determination method of the actual scene focus area is as follows: the coordinates of the tower are known, the camera is installed on the tower, and its coordinates are also known. There are power lines between the towers, and the line sag can be calculated according to relevant regulations. The corresponding voltage level can get the safety distance. Therefore, when the depth is within the range of the camera's visible depth to the depth of the next tower, the height greater than (maximum sag-safety distance) and the height less than (tower height + safety distance) are both the height of interest, and the width is the left and right boundaries of the tower + safety distance + 10m; the depth is within the range of the tower safety distance + 10m to the tower depth, and the height is within the range of the tower base to (tower height + safety distance), that is, an L-shaped body in space is formed, and the L-shaped body has a total of 10 vertices. According to the camera's intrinsic parameters, extrinsic parameters and the scale factor of the scene, the 10 vertices are mapped to the imaging plane, and the mask image is obtained.

[0066] S800, performing an AND operation on the recognition image and the mask image to generate a recognition result;

[0067] In step S800, the recognition image and the mask image are subjected to an AND operation, and the steps of generating a recognition result include: performing an AND operation on the recognition image and the mask image to generate an operation result; generating the recognition result according to the operation result; if the operation result is false, the recognition result does not constitute a safety hazard, and the recognition image is stored; if the operation result is true, the recognition result constitutes a safety hazard, and the recognition image is pushed to a display terminal.

[0068] The step of performing an AND operation on the recognition image and the mask image to generate an operation result includes: determining whether the recognition image is within the mask image; if the recognition image is within the mask image, the operation result is true; if the recognition image is not within the mask image, the operation result is false.

[0069] The step of performing an AND operation on the recognition image and the mask image to generate an operation result further includes: determining whether the recognition image is partially within the mask image; if the recognition image is partially within the mask image, the operation result is true; if the recognition image is not partially within the mask image, the operation result is false. The step after storing the recognition image includes: naming the recognition image according to a preset rule.

[0070] In actual application scenarios, an AND operation is performed on the recognition image and the mask image, that is, to determine whether the recognition image is within the mask image. If the recognition image is within the mask image, the result of the AND operation is true. At this time, if the recognition result corresponding to the operation result is the target, it will pose a safety hazard. In this case, the recognition image needs to be pushed to the display terminal, and the staff will evaluate, judge, and perform maintenance on the recognition image.

[0071] If the recognition image is not in the mask image, the result of the operation is false. At this time, the recognition result corresponding to the operation result is that the target will not pose a safety hazard. Then the recognition image needs to be stored, and the recognition image needs to be named according to the preset rules when storing. The preset rules are the image naming rules established by the State Grid for line inspection, which are generally clockwise, from bottom to top, and from left to right. Naming is to locate the specific equipment and components for image shooting, and it can also archive data in an orderly manner. It can also be used as sample annotation information to train image recognition algorithms, and it can also be used for historical data comparison. After that, it is necessary to wait for the next round of transmission recognition and mask operations of the monitoring image of the same scene until the operation result is true, and then push the recognition image to the display terminal.

[0072] Since the recognition image has a certain width of information, it is necessary to determine whether the recognition image is partially within the mask image. If the recognition image is partially within the mask image, then the operation result of the operation is true, and the recognition result corresponding to the operation result is the target, which will pose a safety hazard. In this case, the recognition image needs to be pushed to the display terminal, and the staff will evaluate, judge, and perform maintenance on the recognition image.

[0073] If no part of the recognition image is within the mask image, the result of the operation is false, and the recognition result corresponding to the operation result is the target, which does not pose a safety hazard. The recognition image needs to be stored, and the recognition image needs to be named according to the preset rules when storing. After that, it is necessary to wait for the next round of transmission recognition and mask operation of the monitoring image of the same scene, until the operation result is true, and then push the recognition image to the display terminal.

[0074] S900: Push the recognized image to a display terminal according to the recognition result.

[0075] In step S900, if the operation result of the operation is true, then the recognition result corresponding to the operation result will constitute a safety hazard for the target. The recognition image needs to be pushed to the display terminal based on the recognition result, and the staff will evaluate, judge and perform operation and maintenance on the recognition image.

[0076] Second, refer to Figure 2 As shown, the present application provides a transmission line monitoring image quantification recognition system, the system comprising: a data acquisition module 100, a recognition module 200, a calculation module 300 and an operation module 400;

[0077] The data acquisition module 100 is configured to: acquire monitoring images and equipment parameters; the monitoring images include target depth values; the equipment parameters include: transmission line tower spacing, safety distance, line elevation value, sag limit value and safety distance limit value;

[0078] The recognition module 200 is configured to: recognize the monitoring image according to the convolution algorithm to generate a recognition image; input the recognition image into a monocular depth estimation model to generate depth information; perform geometric analysis on the depth information to generate relative height information;

[0080] The operation module 400 is configured to: perform an AND operation on the recognition image and the mask image to generate a recognition result; and push the recognition image to a display terminal according to the recognition result.
