As a new type of intelligent maintenance tool, transmission line-guided robots can patrol and monitor lines by moving along them. However, since transmission lines are often located in complex environments, the quality of the captured images may be affected by multiple factors such as weather, light, and vibration, resulting in insufficient image resolution and detail information, which in turn affects the patrol effect.

[0003] In recent years, the rapid development of deep learning technology has provided new ideas and methods for image enhancement. In particular, convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have shown powerful capabilities in the field of image processing. Recursive convolutional neural networks (RCNNs) can achieve efficient image denoising and enhancement while retaining image details by introducing recursive structures. However, a single RCNN still has certain limitations when processing highly complex images. Generative adversarial networks (GANs), as another deep learning model, also have problems such as difficulty in stable training when used alone. Therefore, it is necessary to design an image enhancement method for a data set applied to transmission line guided robots to solve the above problems. Summary of the invention
