[0029] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0030] As attached Figure 1 The photovoltaic panel detection method based on infrared thermal imaging shown includes the following steps:

[0031] P1. Photovoltaic panel area division: First, use the Python-based OpenCV image processing library to extract frames from the photovoltaic panel video stream collected in the monitoring probe observation area second by second. For example, a video stream with a frame rate of 60fps extracts one frame every 60 frames as the result output, and obtains a series of image sequences with different timestamps but equal time intervals. The photovoltaic panel is segmented and recognized based on a mature semantic segmentation algorithm. The segmentation model architecture, backbone network and compilation environment framework are not limited in this solution. The labels used for identification are positive pixels, that is, pixels in the photovoltaic panel range in the image, and negative labels are background pixels.

[0032] The image sequence containing the timestamp and pixel classification label results of semantic segmentation recognition is obtained. The background data is removed, noise is reduced, and geometric correction is performed through the OpenCV image algorithm library of the Python programming language to obtain a panel area image that meets the standard. It is generally a rectangular area with a constant aspect ratio. The specific area varies slightly due to different sizes of photovoltaic panels. The technicians need to make adjustments according to the actual situation. The photovoltaic panels in the target area are bound to the corresponding index number of the photovoltaic panel through the spatial position relationship, which is recorded as P ID , so as to establish the corresponding relationship between the detection result and the panel in the subsequent recognition and detection tasks. Then, the specific frame-by-frame recognition result image at a specific time node is assigned a unique coding identification number F ID Its specific composition is as follows Figure 2 shown.

[0033] In this embodiment, it is specifically necessary to explain that an equal area division method can be adopted, which is to divide into multiple small grids according to a certain size, and then perform data collection in each small grid. The area for data collection can be clearly defined, which is convenient for management and subsequent data processing.

[0034] P2. Photovoltaic panel data collection: Data collection mainly consists of the panel part and the non-panel part. The panel part includes hot spot parameters and cold spot parameters; the non-panel part includes temperature parameters and appearance parameters. The temperature parameters in the non-panel parameters include inverter temperature c, photovoltaic junction box temperature d, and distribution cabinet temperature e. They are collected by integrating mature sensor components and transmitted through communication means such as the Internet of Things or all-optical networks. Finally, the data set for the input model is obtained through data preprocessing; the appearance parameters include line corrosion area η and bracket wear volume ρ, which need to be summarized in combination with the observation summary evaluation table of the operation and maintenance technicians.

[0035] The panel part is mainly collected by P1 and given F ID The frame extraction recognition result image is obtained by secondary recognition and acquisition, wherein the hot spot parameter includes the crack length coefficient Bubble coefficient And the impurity area factor For crack length factor Impurity area factor It is necessary to use semantic segmentation algorithm for collection again; for the bubble number coefficient Object detection algorithms should be used for acquisition.

[0036] The cold spot parameters include the fragment area coefficient Fracture depth coefficient α and black piece area coefficient β; the fragment area coefficient and black piece area coefficient should be identified and analyzed using semantic segmentation algorithm, and the fracture depth coefficient should be calculated comprehensively in combination with the above crack length identification results. The collection strategy of the hot spot parameters is to collect at uniform time intervals during the photovoltaic power generation period, and the collection strategy of the cold spot parameters is to collect at uniform time intervals during the non-photovoltaic power generation period.

[0037] In some implementation cases, for the crack length coefficient in the above-mentioned cold spot parameter Usually, it is necessary to use a semantic segmentation algorithm to identify crack features first. It is necessary to use the Deeplab-V3+ algorithm architecture based on the ResNet-50 backbone network and use the pytorch deep learning framework based on the python language for encoding. In this embodiment, a pre-trained crack detection model is used for transfer learning to obtain better recognition results, and the model can be iterated with a lower amount of training / verification data to achieve good data acquisition results. The crack feature recognition result is usually a semantic segmentation mask image (Mask). The crack recognition result mask is converted into an output in JSON data format through the Python-based OpenCV image processing library, which records the inflection point coordinates of the boundary line of each pixel category in the image pixel coordinate system, and the boundary coordinates of the pixel semantic recognition result as crack class data are marked as P. L The above boundary coordinates are used as input and the orthogonal skeleton method provided by mature computing libraries such as scikit-image is used to calculate the average width of the cracks in the i-th sub-region of all n sub-regions detected on this panel. The longitudinal length of the crack μ i Perform calculations and calculate the crack length coefficient of the i-th sub-area of ​​the photovoltaic panel The formula is

[0038]

The technical path is the same as the aforementioned crack length coefficient, and the semantic segmentation recognition result is a mask image containing the impurity coverage area. The impurity coverage area may usually appear in multiples, so it is necessary to use a target detection algorithm to identify and count the impurity feature areas and bind them to the corresponding semantic segmentation blocks; the target detection technical solution recommends that implementers also use a pre-trained model, whose model architecture uses Faster-RCNN, and the backbone network uses mature technical routes such as VGG-19. The aforementioned semantic segmentation and target detection for the impurity feature area are also based on the acquisition and assignment of F as described in P1. IDThe frame extraction recognition result image, the recognition result of the semantic segmentation detection model is usually a mask of several closed recognition areas. Each area is converted into a labeling file in JSON data format through the OpenCV function library and assigned a first preset number j for the closed impurity feature area therein; the result of target detection and recognition is a closed range frame, which is also converted into a labeling file in JSON format, and the closed detection frame therein is assigned a second preset number i; when the closed geometric area marks of the two preset numbers satisfy that the second preset number frame area covers the first preset number frame and the covering area is greater than or equal to 80%, the value i=j is assigned. If the aforementioned recognition result that satisfies the second preset number i has a total of n impurity feature coverage areas, the total number of pixels in the semantic segmentation recognition result mask image of the i-th impurity feature coverage area is ψ i , and the currently identified collection is assigned F ID The total number of pixels of the frame extraction recognition result image is Τ i , then the impurity area coefficient of the i-th impurity coverage feature area is The formula is

[0040]

[0041] In this embodiment, for the bubble coefficient parameter in the hot spot parameter First, it is necessary to identify the bubble features of the panel, which contain two key information: quantity and area. Two deep learning image detection algorithms, semantic segmentation and target detection, are required. The implementation ideas of semantic segmentation and target detection algorithms for bubble features are similar to those of the impurity area coefficient mentioned above. The related methods have similar ideas, and the results are also a mask image containing the bubble coverage area and a closed detection frame of the bubble detection area. Similarly, the semantic segmentation and target detection for the bubble coefficient part are also based on the acquisition and assignment of F in P1. ID The frame extraction recognition result image, the recognition result of the semantic segmentation detection model is usually a mask of several closed recognition areas. Each area is converted into a label file in JSON data format through the OpenCV function library and the first preset number j is assigned to the closed bubble feature area therein; the result of target detection recognition is a closed range frame, which is also converted into a label file in JSON format, and the closed detection frame therein is assigned a second preset number i; when the closed geometric area marks of the two preset numbers satisfy that the second preset number frame area covers the first preset number frame and the covering area is greater than or equal to 90%, the value i=j is assigned. If the above recognition result that satisfies the second preset number i has a total of n bubble feature coverage areas, the total number of pixels in the semantic segmentation recognition result mask image of the i-th bubble feature coverage area is δ i, and the total number of pixels of the currently identified frame extraction recognition result image collected and assigned FID is Τ i , then the bubble coefficient of the i-th bubble feature coverage area is The formula is

[0042] In this embodiment, the fragment area coefficient in the cold spot parameter is It is necessary to first identify the fragment features of the panel. The technical path is the same as the impurity area coefficient mentioned above. The semantic segmentation recognition result is a mask image containing the impurity coverage area. Fragment areas may usually appear in multiples. Therefore, it is necessary to use a target detection algorithm to identify and count the impurity feature areas and bind them to the corresponding semantic segmentation blocks. The relevant target detection technical solution should adopt the same solution as the target detection of impurity feature areas. The semantic segmentation and target detection for the fragment feature area are also based on the acquisition and assignment of F in P1. ID The frame extraction recognition result image, the recognition result of its semantic segmentation detection model is usually a mask of several closed recognition areas. Each area is converted into a labeling file in JSON data format through the OpenCV function library and the first preset number j is assigned to the closed impurity feature area therein; the result of target detection recognition is a closed range frame, which is also converted into a labeling file in JSON format, and the closed detection frame therein is assigned a second preset number i; when the closed geometric area marks of the two preset numbers satisfy that the second preset number frame area covers the first preset number frame and the covering area is greater than or equal to 80%, the value i=j is assigned. If the above-mentioned recognition result that satisfies the second preset number i has a total of n fragment feature areas, the total number of pixels in the semantic segmentation recognition result mask image of the i-th fragment feature area is And the currently identified collection is assigned F ID The total number of pixels of the frame extraction recognition result image is Τ i , then the impurity area coefficient of the i-th impurity coverage feature area is The formula is

[0043]

[0044] In this embodiment, the black patch area coefficient β in the cold spot parameter needs to first identify the black patch features of the panel, which also contains two types of key information: quantity and area. It is necessary to use two types of deep learning image detection algorithms: semantic segmentation and target detection. The implementation ideas of semantic segmentation and target detection algorithms for black patch features are similar to those of the aforementioned bubble coefficient. The related methods have similar ideas, and the results are also a mask image containing the black patch coverage area and a closed detection frame of the black patch detection area. Similarly, the semantic segmentation and target detection for the black patch area coefficient part are also based on the acquisition and assignment of F in P1. ID The result image of the frame extraction recognition, the recognition result of the semantic segmentation detection model is usually a mask of several closed recognition areas. Each area is converted into a label file in JSON data format through the OpenCV function library and assigned a first preset number j for the closed black film feature area therein; the result of the target detection recognition is a closed range frame, which is also converted into a label file in JSON format, and the closed detection frame therein is assigned a second preset number i; when the closed geometric area marks of the two preset numbers satisfy that the second preset number frame area covers the first preset number frame and the covering area is greater than or equal to 90%, the value i=j is assigned. If the above recognition result that satisfies the second preset number i has a total of n black film feature coverage areas, the total number of pixels in the semantic segmentation recognition result mask image of the i-th black film feature coverage area is x i , and the currently identified collection is assigned F ID The total number of pixels of the frame extraction recognition result image is Τ i , then the black patch area coefficient of the i-th black patch feature coverage area is β i , the formula is

[0045] In this embodiment, the fracture depth coefficient α in the cold spot parameter needs to be further calculated in combination with the result of the crack feature identification described above. The fracture depth coefficient α needs to be combined with the average width ω of the i-th crack among all n cracks detected in the crack feature detection result. i and the mean value of pixels within the feature range of the i-th crack The calculation is performed, wherein the pixels within the crack feature range are converted through the JSON file obtained by the mask conversion of the crack feature recognition result described above and the original image for intersection calculation and image cropping before output. The skeleton line (axis) of the i-th crack is calculated based on the orthogonal skeleton line method in the scikit-image computing library, and the length of the skeleton line is l pixels. The corresponding crack width of any pixel point k of the skeleton line is calculated as (The crack width is the length from the normal line of any pixel on the skeleton line to the edges of the crack on both sides, in pixels) and the qth pixel value of the ith crack of the n cracks is the total m pixels. The fracture depth coefficient α of the i-th crack is i The formula is
