Due to factors such as long-term operation, external environmental changes, and material aging, water heating pipes are prone to problems such as deformation, texture damage, and temperature anomalies. If these problems are not detected and maintained in a timely manner, it may lead to serious consequences such as reduced heating efficiency, water leakage, and even pipe bursting, threatening building safety and increasing maintenance costs. Therefore, real-time monitoring and anomaly detection of the operating state of water heating pipes have become an important research direction in the maintenance of building heating systems.

[0141] The first image preprocessing layer performs grayscale conversion, denoising, and alignment processing on the pipeline time-series image data to generate the preprocessed first pipeline time-series image data;

[0142] The first feature extraction layer extracts the edge intensity, local gradient change, and structural similarity of each frame of image from the first pipeline time-series image data to construct a first pipeline feature vector;

[0143] The outlier factor calculation layer analyzes the first pipeline time-series image data using the local outlier factor algorithm based on the first pipeline feature vector to obtain the local outlier factor;

[0144] The anomaly detection layer analyzes the local outlier factor and the local outlier factor threshold to identify the abnormal feature points and cluster and label them as abnormal areas;

[0145] The result output layer identifies the abnormal area and calculates the pipeline deformation anomaly coefficient.

[0146] Use time series analysis algorithms to dynamically monitor pipeline deformation, extract time-related features of pipeline deformation through this analysis, including but not limited to the bending degree, sag degree, and deformation rate of the pipeline, and evaluate the structural changes of the pipeline based on these features. The severity of pipeline deformation is judged according to the deformation rate, bending degree, and amplitude of deformation. Larger bending degrees and higher deformation rates may cause greater pressure on the pipeline structure and a higher risk of failure.

[0147] Further, the pipeline texture anomaly module includes a second image preprocessing layer, a second feature extraction layer, an abnormal texture detection layer, and a texture output layer;

[0148] The second image preprocessing layer performs denoising, image segmentation, and gray normalization on the pipeline feature image data to obtain the first pipeline feature image data;

[0149] The second feature extraction layer constitutes the second pipeline feature by extracting local texture features, global texture features, and detail texture features from the first pipeline feature image data.

[0150] The abnormal texture detection layer classifies the texture features through a support vector machine classification model to obtain the distribution characteristics of the texture abnormal area.

[0151] The texture output layer identifies the distribution characteristics of the texture abnormal area and calculates and obtains the pipeline texture abnormal coefficient.

[0152] By analyzing the texture features of the pipeline image, information such as the roughness, crack width, crack length, color change, edge sharpness, and texture fineness of the pipeline surface is extracted. The texture feature analysis method automatically identifies the corrosion area of the pipeline based on the texture distribution of the image and quantifies the degree of corrosion. The severity of corrosion is evaluated according to the fineness of the texture features, crack width, and length. Areas with wider and longer cracks and smaller texture fineness may indicate more severe corrosion and a higher failure risk of the pipeline.

[0153] Furthermore, the pipeline temperature anomaly module includes a third image preprocessing layer, a multi-modal image registration layer, a feature extraction and fusion layer, and a temperature anomaly detection layer.

[0154] The third image preprocessing layer performs denoising, contrast enhancement, and normalization processing on the pipeline thermal imaging image data and pipeline ordinary imaging data respectively to obtain the preprocessed first thermal imaging image and first ordinary imaging image.

[0155] The multi-modal image registration layer performs feature point matching on the preprocessed thermal imaging image and ordinary imaging image to generate a multi-modal image.

[0156] The feature extraction and fusion layer extracts temperature gradient features from the thermal imaging image in the multi-modal image and extracts geometric edge features from the ordinary imaging image in the multi-modal image to generate a multi-modal feature vector.

[0157] The temperature anomaly detection layer analyzes based on the multi-modal feature vector and the standard pipeline multi-modal feature vector and calculates and generates the pipeline temperature anomaly coefficient.

[0158] Combined with thermal imaging and ordinary imaging image data, the leakage area of the pipeline is detected through data fusion technology. Thermal imaging images are used to detect areas with abnormal temperature distributions, and ordinary imaging images are used to exclude interference from external environmental factors and accurately locate the position of the leakage point. By analyzing the temperature change amplitude in the thermal imaging image and the water stain signs in the ordinary image, the size of the leakage area and the degree of temperature change are related to the severity of the leakage. Areas with a larger temperature change amplitude and a larger leakage area may indicate a more serious leakage problem.

[0159] Furthermore, the specific calculation formula for the pipeline deformation anomaly coefficient is:

[0160] ;

[0161] Where, is the pipeline deformation anomaly coefficient, is the total number of abnormal feature points, is the local outlier factor of the abnormal feature point , is the preset local outlier factor threshold, is the gradient intensity of the abnormal feature point , is the gradient intensity of all abnormal feature points, is the weight of the abnormal feature point ;
