Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of electric power detection combined with computer vision, and in particular to an ADSS optical cable electric corrosion target detection method based on a correlation matrix. Background Art

[0002] ADSS optical cable (All-Dielectric Self-Supporting Optical Fiber Cable) has become one of the important applications in the field of power communication due to its all-dielectric self-supporting characteristics. However, despite its superior weather resistance and corrosion resistance, which makes it more suitable for long-term field installation, ADSS optical cable is particularly susceptible to electrical corrosion in certain areas. Among them, the twisted wire area of ​​the optical cable has become the main location for high incidence of electrical corrosion due to its structural characteristics and the influence of the external environment. The twisted wire area not only often accumulates moisture and pollutants, but also its complex structure is prone to potential difference, which accelerates the corrosion process under certain conditions. As the electrical corrosion effect intensifies, it is easy to cause the surface sheath of the optical cable to break, causing cable breakage failure.

[0003] The detection methods for ADSS cable electrical corrosion problems cover a variety of technical means, including optical microscope detection, chemical reagent detection, potential difference measurement, infrared thermal imaging detection, sound wave detection, and automatic detection methods based on image processing, etc., but their accuracy is relatively limited. The current detection methods mainly rely on manual inspections, which have problems such as low efficiency and large subjective errors.

[0004] There is an urgent need to accurately detect the electrical corrosion that may occur on the surface of ADSS optical cables based on computer vision technology, especially to effectively monitor the corrosion in the area near the twisted wires, so as to achieve comprehensive monitoring and early warning of the optical cable channel.

[0054] Figure 3 Schematic diagram of SIFT feature point extraction for ADSS optical cable electrical corrosion. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0055] In the following description, a large number of specific details are provided to provide a more thorough understanding of the present invention. However, it is apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention can be implemented without one or more of these details. In other examples, in order to avoid confusion with the present invention, some technical features known in the art are not described.

[0056] The voltage-equalizing ring is an optical cable accessory used to equalize the voltage distribution of the optical cable in the electric field. Although the widespread use of insulating rings can reduce the probability of electrical corrosion, with the increase in the operating time of the ADSS optical cable, the accumulation of electrical marks, the effects of rain and dirt, and the influence of its local discharge effect, it is easy to cause the outer sheath of the optical cable to heat up, deform and be damaged, and the corrosion process to gradually accelerate.

[0057] Therefore, this embodiment aims to propose a method for detecting ADSS optical cable electrical corrosion targets based on a correlation matrix, and accurately detect the electrical corrosion that may occur on the surface of the ADSS optical cable based on computer vision technology, especially to effectively monitor the corrosion situation in the area near the twisted wire, so as to achieve comprehensive monitoring and early warning of the optical cable channel. The process is shown in Figure 1 As shown, the implementation steps are as follows:

[0058] Step 1: Image data acquisition

[0059] Step 1a: Image acquisition

[0060] The system regularly captures real-time images of ADSS optical cables through cameras installed in the optical cable channel. These cameras should have high resolution and the ability to adapt to all-weather environments to ensure that they can capture subtle electrical corrosion phenomena on the surface of the optical cable.

[0061] Step 2: Target detection and electrical corrosion identification

[0062] Step 2a: Model loading

[0063] The system analyzes the acquired images through the pre-trained YOLO model. The training data set of the model contains various forms of electrical corrosion phenomena (points, lines, cracks, etc.). The model can efficiently detect the electrical corrosion area and provide the location information and confidence of each detection frame.

[0064] Step 2b: Object Detection Output

[0065] After being processed by the model, the system outputs the location information (such as bounding box coordinates) and confidence score of each detected electrocorrosion phenomenon, which is used to indicate the probability of electrocorrosion phenomenon. These detection results provide preliminary electrocorrosion areas:

[0066] Detection box : The rectangular box output by the model represents the corrosion area. , where x and y are the coordinates of the center point of the detection box, and w and h are the width and height respectively.

[0067] Next, the coordinates of the four vertices of the detection box are expressed as homogeneous coordinates:

[0068]

[0069]

[0070]

[0071]

[0072] Step 3: Feature point extraction and correlation matrix construction

[0073] Step 3a: Feature point extraction

[0074] In the identified electro-corrosion area, the local feature extraction algorithm is further used to extract the twisted wire-electro-corrosion key feature points. The selection of feature points is not only based on the local features of the image, but also limited by the output corrosion area frame to reduce the interference of irrelevant information. In the area, the SIFT (Scale Invariant Feature Transform) algorithm is used to extract key feature points to form a feature point set .

[0075] Step 3b: Construct the incidence matrix H

[0076] Using the extracted twisted wire feature points, the correlation matrix H is constructed:

[0077] First, the feature points are represented by homogeneous coordinates:

[0078]

[0079] in, and are the corresponding feature points in the current image and the reference image respectively.

[0080] For perspective transformation on a two-dimensional plane, the correlation matrix H is a 3×3 matrix, expressed as:

[0081]

[0082] According to the matching relationship of feature points, a linear equation system is constructed:

[0083]

[0084] Expand to get:

[0085]

[0086] Since the coordinates after feature matching are still homogeneous coordinates, they need to be normalized:

[0087]

[0088] Step 4: Use the correlation matrix to distinguish the skeins from other parts

[0089] Step 4a: Through the characteristics of the correlation matrix H, the twisted wire area can be effectively distinguished from other areas:

[0090] Analyze the matrix eigenvalues ​​and calculate the eigenvalues ​​and eigenvectors of the correlation matrix. The characteristic value of , the corresponding eigenvector represents the symmetric transformation.

[0091] Define the discriminant function :

[0092]

[0093] like If it is close to 0, it is judged as a twisted wire area; If it is greater than a certain threshold, it is determined as a non-twisted wire area.

[0094] During the feature point matching process, the matching error is calculated:

[0095]

[0096] In the twisted wire area, the error is smaller; in other areas, the error is larger.

[0097] Step 5: Precise location of the electrocorrosion area

[0098] Using the characteristics of the correlation matrix, the precise location of the electrocorrosion area can be achieved:

[0099] Map the electrocorrosion areas in the current image to the reference image:

[0100]

[0101] in, is the bounding box of the electrocorrosion area, and H is the association matrix. The corresponding vertex coordinates are:

[0102]

[0103] When the correlation matrix changes abnormally in the twisted wire area (such as the matrix elements deviate from ), which may indicate electrical corrosion or other anomalies in the area and require further inspection.

[0104] Step 6: Iterative optimization of the incidence matrix

[0105] In order to improve the accuracy of the correlation matrix, an iterative optimization method is used:

[0106] The correlation matrix of the twisted wire area as initial value.

[0107] Iteration formula:

[0108]

[0109] in, is the adjustment amount for the kth iteration.

[0110] Adjustment calculation: , α is the learning rate; E(*) is the error function:

[0111]

[0112] in, is the weight coefficient, and the weight of the twisted wire area is higher.

[0113] When the error Converge to threshold or the maximum number of iterations is reached When , stop the iteration.

[0114] Below is an example of the correlation matrix comparing the twisted and non-twisted regions:

[0115] After calculation, the correlation matrix of the twisted wire area is:

[0116]

[0117] The diagonal elements of this matrix are close to , the off-diagonal elements are close to 0.

[0118] In the non-twisted wire region, the correlation matrix is:

[0119]

[0120] The elements of this matrix do not show obvious characteristics, and the diagonal elements are close to 1.

[0121] Use the characteristics of the correlation matrix to distinguish and calculate the discriminant function:

[0122] For the twisted wire area:

[0123] For non-twisted areas:

[0124] Setting Thresholds ,but:

[0125] like , determined as the twisted wire area;

[0126] like , determined as a non-twisted wire area.

[0127] result:

[0128] Twisted wire area , which is determined as the twisted wire area; , determined as a non-twisted wire area.

[0129] In the next step, the identified twisted wire area is used for target detection of electrocorrosion, which can effectively locate and identify the electrocorrosion area. The correlation matrix of the twisted wire area has stable characteristics and can be used as a benchmark; the correlation matrix of the electrocorrosion area is abnormal due to structural deformation. By using the numerical difference of matrix elements and the increase of matching error, combined with eigenvalue analysis, the electrocorrosion area can be accurately identified and its position can be accurately located through matrix operations.
