Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of image processing technology and relates to a method for classifying the degree of sedimentary dust pollution based on image perception. Background Technology

[0002] For enterprises involved in the production and processing of combustible dust, monitoring and controlling the amount of dust deposits in localized areas is crucial to ensuring production safety. Combustible dusts, such as sawdust, grain dust, and chemical powders, can form flammable mixtures with air under certain conditions, which can potentially ignite upon contact with an ignition source such as a spark or static electricity. Therefore, assessing the level of pollution from these dusts is a key step in preventing fires and explosions. Enterprises must implement effective monitoring measures to regularly test the dust concentration and deposition status in the environment.

[0003] Currently, most factories assess the degree of dust contamination in localized areas through manual visual inspection. This method is not only time-consuming and inefficient, but also highly susceptible to subjective factors, making it difficult to guarantee the consistency and accuracy of the assessment. In contrast, image processing technology offers a more comprehensive and dynamic monitoring method. Image monitoring systems can be integrated with existing safety monitoring systems, utilizing deployed video surveillance facilities to determine the dust deposition situation in contaminated areas based on real-time captured images, greatly improving the enterprise's safety early warning and accident response capabilities.

[0004] In the factory environment of processing enterprises, the similarity in color between accumulated dust and the surface of the area to be monitored makes it difficult for image processing algorithms to distinguish between dust and background, thus reducing detection accuracy. Meanwhile, changes in lighting conditions further affect the accuracy of image-based methods, making dust detection even more challenging. These problems not only reduce the precision and resolution of image-based measurements but also increase the complexity of data processing, posing a challenge to accurately determining the degree of dust contamination in a region. Therefore, effectively capturing the image features of deposited dust and researching and developing methods that can quickly and efficiently detect the degree of dust contamination in polluted areas are of great significance for improving the practicality of image processing technology in determining the degree of dust contamination in working environments. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of this, the purpose of this invention is to provide a method for classifying the degree of deposited dust pollution based on image perception, which can determine the degree of deposited dust pollution in a target area in real time based on captured images, thereby improving the enterprise's safety early warning and accident response capabilities.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: A method for classifying the degree of sedimentary dust pollution based on image perception, the method comprising: S1. Design markers to determine the level of dust pollution in the target area, and obtain image sets of markers with different cleanliness levels.

C ,according to C The value is used to classify the degree of dust pollution in the target area.

Unless otherwise specified, the following embodiments and features can be combined with each other.

[0011] This invention proposes an image-aware-based method for classifying the degree of sedimentary dust pollution. The method first designs markers to determine the level of sedimentary dust pollution in a target area and acquires image sets of markers with different cleanliness levels. Based on this, a marker segmentation model is trained using semantic segmentation. Secondly, markers are deployed in the target area, and real-time monitoring images of the target area are acquired. P Marker images are obtained through marker segmentation models, perspective transformation algorithms, and downsampling / upsampling.

C ,according to C The value of is used to classify the degree of dust pollution in the target area.

[0012] like Figure 1 As shown, the specific content of the method of the present invention includes: 1. Acquire images of deposited dust markers I 1) Establish a marker extraction model using semantic segmentation algorithms. ① Design markers to determine the level of dust pollution in a target area. The markers should have low reflectivity, simple and repetitive structures, such as equally spaced parallel yellow and black diagonal stripes. ② Construct a marker dataset, which should include images of markers with different cleanliness levels; ③ Use image labeling software (such as LabelMe) to label the markers in the dataset, and put the label set and the dataset into a semantic segmentation model (such as U-net) to train a marker extraction model.

[0013] 2) Obtain preliminary images of markers using a marker extraction model. ① In the target area where cleanliness assessment is required, set up the designed markers, and use a camera to record images of the target area. Under the condition that the markers are not obstructed and are not contaminated by dust, collect and store the baseline images. ;Will The landmark region baseline image is obtained from the input landmark extraction model. Perspective transformation and downsampling / upsampling operations are performed on the landmarks in the baseline image to make the landmark image size m×n×C, where m, n, and C are the pre-defined length, width, and number of color channels of the landmark image, respectively. This current landmark image is recorded as the landmark baseline image. .

[0014] ② Set the image acquisition interval T, and store the acquired image at intervals of time T. ; ③ Use the established marker extraction model to process the image Real-time target segmentation is performed to extract landmark region maps. The landmarks are then assessed: if a landmark is occluded, the current image is discarded; if the landmark is intact, perspective transformation and downsampling / upsampling operations are performed to give it a uniform size of m×n×C, resulting in the landmark image. .

[0030] 3) Calculate the detailed parameters of the marker. ,

[0031] As dust pollution worsens, the number of straight-line contours of markers decreases, while the number of irregular curved contours increases. To measure the changes in marker contours, a straight-line contour loss parameter is defined. The parameter represents the degree of reduction in straight profiles and the increase in curved profiles. This indicates the degree of increase in the curve profile.

All weak edges connected to strong edges, along with strong edges, are retained to obtain the edge map. .

[0048] C. Secondly, non-maximum suppression is applied to the gradient magnitude value. That is, for each pixel, its two adjacent pixels in the gradient direction are checked. If the current pixel is not a local maximum, it is set to 0, resulting in... .

[0049] D. Select two straight line contours to extract thresholds, using the higher threshold... (usually taken) and low threshold (usually taken) The gradient magnitude value is compared with a threshold; if the gradient magnitude value is greater than a threshold, the gradient magnitude value is considered greater than a threshold.
