[0002] Traditional buoy inspection mainly relies on manual regular inspection and the threshold alarm mechanism of a single sensor, which has significant defects such as narrow perception dimension, response lag, high false alarm rate, and high maintenance cost; manual inspection requires regular dispatch of ships or divers to check the wear of the buoy anchor chain, biological attachment, or equipment failure. The single inspection cost in remote waters is relatively high and the inspection cycle is relatively long, resulting in a very high lag rate in discovering equipment failure; while the monitoring system based on fixed sensors can only obtain surface water quality parameters, and cannot identify problems such as underwater structure damage, anchor chain fracture, or illegal ship collision. Moreover, the mechanical threshold is easily interfered by wind and wave noise, and the false alarm rate is relatively high.
[0003] In recent years, the breakthroughs in Internet of Things and artificial intelligence technologies have provided a new path for buoy intelligence: the multi-modal sensor array can synchronously collect the deformation of the buoy body structure, the state of the anchor chain, the underwater corrosion image, and the dynamic data of the surrounding water area, and construct a holographic perception network of "body state - environmental disturbance - abnormal event"; the lightweight AI model realizes real-time data processing through the edge computing module, improves the anchor chain fracture recognition speed to the second level, and uses transfer learning technology to adapt to the environmental characteristics of different sea areas.
[0004] However, the existing technology still faces bottlenecks such as difficulties in spatio-temporal alignment of multi-source heterogeneous data and insufficient model robustness in complex environments, resulting in a relatively high false judgment rate of equipment failures; the present invention focuses on constructing a state feature vector through the multi-source heterogeneous perception data set of the buoy, further obtaining a health score and the probability distribution of abnormal types, then generating early warning information, and using unmanned inspection equipment for verification, so as to realize the intelligent sensing and identification of the buoy, and provide real-time and high-precision technical support for buoy intelligent identification.

[0031] Among them, S1 specifically includes the following steps:
[0032] S11. Establish the multi-modal data acquisition array based on a meteorological sensor, a hydrological sensor, a high-precision positioning device, and an image acquisition device.
[0033] In this embodiment, a multi-modal data acquisition array is constructed through collaborative deployment of multiple sensors; first, an anti-erosion meteorological sensor group including a three-cup anemometer, a temperature and humidity sensor, and a piezoelectric barometer is installed on the top of the buoy; second, according to the actual inspection task requirements, a hydrological sensing unit is arranged at an appropriate position of the buoy to ensure effective acquisition of the required data, and the wave motion trajectory is captured by integrating a CTD probe, an acoustic Doppler current profiler, and a six-axis inertial measurement unit; the high-precision positioning device uses a dual-frequency GNSS receiver to be coupled with an inertial navigation system (INS), and the positioning jitter caused by surges is eliminated through Kalman filtering; the image acquisition device consists of a panoramic camera, a side-scan sonar, and an infrared thermal imager, and an anti-corrosion image acquisition unit is deployed in the underwater part of the buoy through dynamic waterproof packaging technology, and a time synchronizer is used to ensure the timing alignment of visual data and sensor data.

The image data is used by the on-board AI chip to perform corrosion recognition and structural crack detection in real time, and the abnormal area automatically triggers detailed shooting; the underwater robot information acquisition device uses an electric propulsion type to carry a side-scan sonar, a multi-spectral underwater camera and a sacrificial anode protection potential sensor, and is linked with the buoy bottom beacon through an ultra-short baseline positioning system, and performs three-dimensional scanning along the preset spiral descent path. The sonar constructs a three-dimensional point cloud of the anchor chain in real time, and the camera uses a robotic arm to assist in taking macro photos of the corrosion of the riveting points, and synchronously collects potential data to evaluate the risk of anti-corrosion layer failure.
[0035] Furthermore, the multi-modal data acquisition array constructs a three-dimensional monitoring system using a multi-dimensional assisted inspection mode. The multi-dimensional assisted inspection mode includes manual inspection, which calibrates the equipment parameters through regular on-site verification to meet the special inspection requirements after sudden failures and extreme weather, and makes up for the technical monitoring blind spots; the telemetry and remote control system based on the communication network realizes the real-time acquisition and remote control of the buoy position, attitude, and hydrological parameters; the AIS system carried by passing ships can automatically receive the status information broadcast by the buoy and transmit it back to the management platform through the ship-shore data link to form a mobile monitoring network, which is especially suitable for information blind spot filling in remote sea areas and emergency situations; the three-dimensional monitoring system significantly improves the monitoring effect of the buoy.
[0036] In an optional embodiment, the navigation light is integrally installed on the upper part of the buoy lamp holder, and realizes intelligent day and night switching through a photosensitive sensor; it stands by and saves energy during the day, automatically turns on at night and maintains the stroboscopic function to provide a clear channel mark for ships; its control unit is interconnected with the buoy central processor. When the water quality sensor detects that the oil pollution exceeds the standard, the navigation light switches to a red warning stroboscopic light and synchronously triggers an alarm signal to the shore-based monitoring platform; in addition, the navigation light is equipped with an AIS receiver, which can identify the information of ships within a short distance; the built-in self-diagnostic chip regularly transmits voltage and temperature parameters to the cloud, supports remote adjustment of the flashing mode, realizes intelligent cooperation with the buoy system, and significantly improves the efficiency of water area safety monitoring.
[0037] S12. Obtain the meteorological data, hydrological data, position information and image information of the buoy according to the multi-modal data acquisition array, so as to construct the multi-source heterogeneous perception data set.
[0038] In this embodiment, meteorological data of the buoy environment, including wind speed, wind direction, temperature, humidity, air pressure and visibility, are obtained through meteorological sensors; hydrological data of the buoy position, including water temperature, salinity, water flow velocity, pH value, dissolved oxygen, chlorophyll, nutrients, turbidity, oil pollution, wave data, current data, ship wastewater pollution and ship exhaust emissions, are obtained through hydrological sensors; the position information of the buoy, including longitude and latitude, altitude, inclination, movement trajectory and relative positions of adjacent buoys, is obtained through a high-precision positioning device; image information of the buoy, including buoy appearance information, anchor chain status, ship traffic flow information and environmental information, the buoy appearance includes buoy coloring, buoy corrosion and buoy fouling, and the environmental information includes ship search and rescue signals.
[0039] Specifically, the multi-spectral sensor system (integrated with fluorescence, ultraviolet and infrared technologies) carried by the buoy operates around the clock and is deployed close to the water surface. The fluorescence sensor identifies oil by detecting the specific wavelength fluorescence emitted by the oil after being excited by ultraviolet light. The ultraviolet sensor non-contactly scans the ultraviolet band reflected by the water surface to locate the oil film, and the infrared sensor assists in quantifying the thickness of the oil film. At the same time, the buoy combines the positioning device to track the diffusion path of the oil pollution and transmit it to the shore-based monitoring platform to provide precise support for emergency response.
[0040] It should be noted that the relevant influencing factors of visibility in meteorological data include rain, fog, snow and haze.
[0041] Furthermore, firstly, the clocks of various sensors are aligned through the time synchronization controller to ensure that meteorological data, hydrological data, dual-frequency GNSS / INS combined positioning data and panoramic images form a millisecond-level aligned spatiotemporal sequence; secondly, edge computing nodes are deployed, and a sliding window mechanism is used for data cleaning, including three-point calibration of temperature, salinity and depth data, Kalman filter denoising of positioning data, and adaptive histogram equalization of image data; finally, a spatiotemporal index database is constructed to store multi-source data in four dimensions (time + longitude + latitude + depth) according to UTC timestamps and WGS84 coordinates, and the sensor metadata (range, accuracy, unit) is semantically annotated through the JSON-LD framework to form a multi-source heterogeneous perception data set containing physical quantity time series, spatial trajectories, structural images and environmental contexts, providing standardized data input for subsequent feature fusion.
[0042] It should be noted that the temperature, salinity and depth data refer to the temperature data, salinity data and depth data of seawater.
[0043] In an optional embodiment, the multi-modal data acquisition array constructs an intelligent monitoring network covering the waters around the buoy by integrating various environmental perception devices; the equipped high-definition video camera is combined with a millimeter-wave radar to capture the changes in the water surface ripples in real time. When a person accidentally falls into the water, a unique "splash-human body posture" coupling recognition algorithm can give a warning within seconds, complete the determination of the falling into water event, and synchronously trigger a positioning mark; the infrared thermal imager and the multi-spectral water quality analyzer work together to detect the person falling into water at night through abnormal temperature detection, and can accurately identify the characteristic absorption peak of the oil film on the water surface. When hydrocarbon pollutants are detected, the spectral matching database will automatically compare the oil sample fingerprint library to generate a pollution level assessment report, achieving a warning within seconds; the sonar sensor of the multi-modal data acquisition array can penetrate turbid waters to draw an underwater three-dimensional topographic map, and combine with an AI model to predict the spread path of the oil pollution, providing support for emergency decision-making; the sensor data is preprocessed by the edge computing node and transmitted to the shore-based monitoring platform through a low-latency network; at the same time, by deploying high-precision tension sensors and vibration monitors, the anchor chain status data is collected in real time, and millisecond-level analysis is performed in combination with edge computing. Once the precursor of the anchor chain breakage is detected, an audible and visual alarm is immediately triggered and pushed to the shore-based monitoring platform synchronously, achieving a response within seconds, striving for the golden time for emergency disposal, and ensuring a response within seconds in a complex environment.
[0044] In addition, in terms of data encryption and physical protection, a hierarchical protection strategy is adopted: at the hardware layer, the sensor nodes are equipped with explosion-proof and waterproof enclosures, and a three-axis vibration sensor and a tracking module are built in. Abnormal displacement triggers the self-destruction circuit to fuse the data storage chip; at the transmission layer, a data encryption algorithm is deployed to encrypt the multi-source heterogeneous perception data set, and the data is synchronized to the shore-based monitoring platform through dual-channel redundant transmission. The session key is rotated regularly through a dynamic key distribution system; and integrity verification is performed on the cleaned data, and abnormal data blocks are automatically isolated; at the storage layer, blockchain technology is used to generate a Merkle tree structure for the encrypted multi-modal data according to the UTC timestamp, and anti-tampering verification of distributed storage nodes is realized through the PBFT consensus mechanism; at the access layer, multi-factor authentication is set, and minimum privilege access control is implemented based on the zero-trust architecture. The audit log is encrypted with random numbers for data synchronization.

[0052] In this embodiment, the visual modality uses a pre-trained 3D-CNN network to extract the structural deformation spatio-temporal features (outputting a 512-dimensional vector) from 10 consecutive seconds of image slices (300 frames). The temporal modality uses bidirectional LSTM to model the dynamic evolution and capture the dynamic evolution patterns of parameters such as wind speed and salinity (outputting a 256-dimensional vector).

After each group passes through lightweight convolution and global max pooling, the initial probability is output through the Sigmoid activation function, and then the probability distribution of the abnormal type is obtained through Softmax normalization.
