Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of data anomaly recognition, and particularly relates to a multi-bridge monitoring data anomaly recognition method and system based on multi-modal feature fusion. Background Art

[0002] With the development of a new generation of information technologies such as advanced sensing, Internet of Things, big data, and artificial intelligence, structural health monitoring technology has currently been widely applied to the monitoring and maintenance of civil engineering structures. Long-term monitoring will generate a large amount of SHM data, and these monitoring data record rich performance evolution information during the operation of the bridge, including the structural load and response behavior rules under normal operating conditions, as well as the rare loads and responses in special events such as typhoons, ship collisions, earthquakes, fires, and traffic accidents.

[0003] By mining and analyzing the large amount of monitoring data collected by the SHM system, the safety and applicability of the bridge structure during its service life can be evaluated. However, due to monitoring system failures, such as improper sensor installation, quality damage, and long-term use, etc., the monitoring data collected by the SHM system may be interfered by various anomalies, seriously affecting the data analysis results. Therefore, how to quickly and effectively identify and detect abnormal data is a major challenge in the field of bridge health monitoring.

[0004] For various data anomaly patterns existing in bridge SHM data, training a convolutional neural network model to automatically identify and classify abnormal data is an effective method. The convolutional neural network has a powerful feature extraction ability. Existing technologies usually visualize the time-series data and input it into the convolutional neural network for training, converting the abnormal recognition problem of time-series data into an image classification problem. However, this method is limited by the pixel size of the image, which may lead to the loss or interference of the spatial information of the data. To overcome this limitation, the fusion of multi-modal information is proposed as an effective solution. By integrating data from different modalities, the internal characteristics of the data can be more comprehensively characterized, significantly improving the accuracy and robustness of abnormal recognition. At the same time, there is often a serious data imbalance problem in the SHM data of a single bridge, that is, the number of each abnormal category in the data set varies greatly. On the one hand, this is reflected in the imbalance between the sample sizes of normal data and abnormal data. Usually, the normal monitoring data is much more than the abnormal data. At the same time, it is also reflected in the imbalance of the sample numbers of each abnormal pattern within the abnormal data. This imbalance problem of the single-bridge monitoring data often leads to confusion in the recognition results between some categories, affecting the final abnormal data recognition accuracy. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To solve the technical problems existing in the background art, the present invention aims to provide a multi-bridge monitoring data anomaly recognition method and system based on multi-modal feature fusion, aiming to solve the problem of low recognition accuracy of some abnormal data caused by the current image-based abnormal data classification method and the imbalance of single-bridge monitoring data.

[0006] To solve the technical problems, the technical solution of the present invention is:

[0007] A multi-bridge monitoring data anomaly automatic recognition method based on multi-modal feature fusion, the method comprising:

[0008] S1: Normalize the original time series data set and segment it into a series of fixed-length segments to obtain the normalized time series data segments;

[0009] S2: Convert the obtained normalized time series data segments into grayscale images, simultaneously extract the statistical features in the time series data, and manually label the images and statistical features with tags, and output the grayscale image data set, the statistical feature data set, and the labeled normal / abnormal tags;

[0010] S3: Based on the output result of step S2, establish a multi-modal convolutional neural network model, use the data sets from multiple bridges, and input the grayscale images and the corresponding statistical features into the network model for training simultaneously to obtain a trained multi-modal deep learning model;

[0011] S4: Use the trained multi-modal deep learning model to perform anomaly recognition on the target bridge SHM data.

[0012] It can be understood that there is an imbalance in the SHM data of a single bridge: the amount of normal data is much larger than that of abnormal data, and the amount of data in different abnormal categories in the abnormal data varies greatly. Therefore, when creating the data set, the SHM data from multiple bridges are used to complement each other to form a combined and more balanced data set.

[0013] It can be understood that the designed multi-modal convolutional neural network combines image features and statistical features for classification. The image encoder part uses the ResNet model to extract rich image features, and the statistical feature encoder part extracts statistical features (peak intensity, standard deviation, linearity, and linear fitting slope) from the time series data. These features provide statistical information of the data, which helps the model better understand the distribution and trend of the data. In the classification stage, the model concatenates these two features to form a more comprehensive feature vector, making full use of the information of both modalities.

[0014] Further, before the step S1, the method further comprises:

[0015] Collect the SHM time series data of multiple bridges, including acceleration, deflection, stress, and temperature data, to form an original time series data set.

[0016] Further, step S2 includes:

[0017] S201: Read the segmented time series data, plot each sample data as a 224×224 grayscale image, and extract statistical features. The image and statistical features are saved in png and npy formats respectively;

[0018] S202: Manually label the abnormal pattern labels for the generated data images and statistical feature samples.

[0019] Further, the statistical features include: peak intensity, standard deviation, linearity, and linear fitting slope; in the image-based abnormal data classification method, the statistical features of the data are introduced to strengthen the discrimination effect between abnormal patterns;

[0020] The formula for peak intensity is:

[0021]

[0022] In formula (1), D 0.9 is the distance between the upper and lower bounds of the data values where 90% of the data points in the sample are located, x max is the maximum value in the data, x min is the minimum value in the data. This feature index is mainly used to identify the outlier anomalies in the data;

[0023] The formula for standard deviation is:

[0024]

[0025] In formula (2), x i is the value of each data point, μ is the sample mean, and N is the total number of data points in the sample. This feature index is mainly used to identify the sub-small and over-range anomalies in the data;

[0026] The formula for linearity is:

[0027]

[0028] In formula (3), max(|Δx i |) is the maximum value of the absolute deviation between the smooth curve and the fitting line of all data points in the sample, x max and x min are the maximum and minimum values in the sample respectively. This feature index is mainly used to identify the drift anomalies in the data;

[0029] The slope of the linear fit is the slope of the fitted line obtained by using the least squares linear regression for all data points in the sample, which represents the degree of baseline shift. This characteristic index is used to identify trend anomalies in the data.

[0030] Further, step S3 specifically includes:

[0031] The multi-modal convolutional neural network model includes a convolutional layer, a pooling layer, and a fully connected layer. The overall structure is divided into three parts: an image encoder, a statistical feature encoder, and a fusion classifier. Among them, the image encoder is based on the ResNet neural network. The last fully connected layer is removed, and it receives a grayscale image input of size 224×224 and extracts the image features therein, outputting 512 image feature vectors. The statistical feature encoder consists of two fully connected layers, activated by the ReLU function in the middle, receives the numerical inputs corresponding to 4 statistical features and maps them to 512-dimensional features, which is consistent with the dimension of the image features. The fusion classifier splices and fuses the extracted image features and statistical features, and realizes the final classification through the fully connected layer.

[0032] The training steps of the multi-modal convolutional neural network model include:

[0033] S301: Manually label the abnormal mode labels for the SHM datasets of multiple bridges, and divide the datasets into a training set and a validation set according to a ratio of 8:2. The training set should mainly include the data samples of the bridges to be measured. For the abnormal modes with a small number, the data samples of other bridges are used for supplementation.

[0034] S302: Based on the designed multi-modal convolutional neural network model, train the network weight parameters suitable for abnormal data recognition, adjust the hyperparameters according to the training results, and obtain the optimal training model.

[0035] Further, the ResNet neural network introduces the structure of residual blocks. The residual blocks are composed of two convolutional layers, and each convolutional layer is followed by a batch normalization layer and a ReLU activation function.

[0036] The purpose of batch normalization is to make the data distribution of each layer input in the network more stable and accelerate the learning speed of the model. The batch normalization formula is as follows:

[0037]

[0038] In formula (4): x i is the input sample, μ is the sample mean, σ is the sample variance, ∈ is a very small value used to prevent the denominator from being zero, γ and β are the scaling parameter and the offset parameter, and the standardized data is linearly transformed.

[0039] The ReLU activation function features low computational complexity and can effectively mitigate the problems of gradient explosion and gradient disappearance that may occur during neural network training. The formula is as follows:

[0040] f(x) = max(0, x) (5).

[0041] Furthermore, the step S4 includes:

[0042] Segment the SHM data of the bridge to be measured into grayscale images and extract 4 statistical features. Input the data samples of the bridge to be measured into the trained multi-modal convolutional neural network model for identification and classification to obtain the abnormal pattern it belongs to.

[0043] A multi-bridge monitoring data anomaly automatic recognition system based on multi-modal feature fusion, characterized in that the system is applied to any of the above methods, and the system includes:

[0044] Data collection module: used to collect the SHM time series data of multiple bridges, including acceleration, deflection, stress, and temperature data, to form an original time series data set;

[0045] Data preprocessing module: used to perform normalization processing on the original time series data set and segment it into a series of fixed-length segments to obtain the normalized time series data segments;

[0046] Feature extraction and annotation module: used to convert the obtained normalized time series data segments into grayscale images, extract the statistical features in the time series data at the same time, and manually mark the images and statistical features with labels, and output the grayscale image data set, the statistical feature data set, and the labeled normal / abnormal labels;

[0047] Deep learning training module: Based on the output results of the feature extraction and annotation module, establish a multi-modal convolutional neural network model, use the data sets from multiple bridges, input the grayscale images and the corresponding statistical features into the network model for training at the same time, and obtain the trained multi-modal deep learning model;

[0048] Anomaly detection module: Use the trained multi-modal deep learning model to identify anomalies in the SHM data of the target bridge.

[0049] A computer device includes a memory, a processor, and a computer program stored on the memory and executable on the processor. When the processor executes the program, it implements the multi-bridge monitoring data anomaly automatic recognition method based on multi-modal feature fusion described in any of the above.

[0050] A computer-readable storage medium stores a computer program thereon, and when the program is executed by a processor, it implements the multi-bridge monitoring data anomaly automatic recognition method based on multi-modal feature fusion described in any one of the above.

[0051] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of the present invention are as follows:

[0052] The present invention collects and fuses the SHM time-series data of multiple bridges as a data set, and normalizes the data from different sources. By combining the image features and statistical features of the time-series data, the recognition and classification accuracy of data anomalies is improved; after manually labeling the data set that fuses the SHM data of multiple bridges, the image samples and statistical features are simultaneously input into the designed multi-modal convolutional neural network model for training, and based on the deep learning algorithm, different patterns of anomalies in the bridge SHM data are automatically recognized and classified with high precision, providing a basis for bridge operation status evaluation and early warning.

[0058] The following describes the specific embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the embodiments:

[0059] It should be noted that the structures, ratios, sizes, etc. shown in this specification are only used to cooperate with the content disclosed in the specification for those skilled in this technology to understand and read, and are not used to limit the implementation conditions of the present invention. Any modification of the structure, change of the proportional relationship, or adjustment of the size should still fall within the scope covered by the technical content disclosed in the present invention without affecting the effects that the present invention can produce and the purposes that can be achieved.

[0060] Meanwhile, terms such as "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "middle", and "one" cited in this specification are only for the convenience of clear description and do not limit the scope of implementation of the present invention. Changes or adjustments to their relative relationships, without substantial changes in the technical content, should also be regarded as the scope of implementation of the present invention.

[0061] Example 1:

[0062] An automatic abnormal recognition method for multi-bridge monitoring data based on multi-modal feature fusion, as Figure 1 shown, includes the following steps:

[0063] Step 1: Collect SHM time series data (acceleration, deflection, stress, temperature, etc.) of multiple bridges;

[0064] Step 2: Normalize the original SHM time series data of multiple bridges and scale the data within the range of [-1, 1]; the purpose of this step is to eliminate the data feature differences existing in the bridge SHM data from different sources. Data normalization is a common technique in data preprocessing and can effectively eliminate errors caused by different dimensions. Subsequently, an overlapping sliding window with a length of w is used to segment the original SHM data of the bridge to be analyzed. The value of w is related to the sampling frequency of the data. When the sampling frequencies of data from different sources vary greatly, the value of w should be modified to make the number of data points in a single sample close.

[0065] Step 3: Visualize the normalized time series data, convert it into a grayscale image, extract statistical features from the time series data at the same time, and randomly select some images and statistical features through manual marking to construct a training set;

[0066] Step 3.1: Plot the segmented data into a grayscale image with a size of 224×224 for convenient subsequent input into the neural network model. At the same time, to avoid interference, hide the coordinate axes in the image, and save the image in png format; extract 4 statistical features (peak intensity, standard deviation, linearity, and linear fitting slope) from the time series data and save them in npy format, where:

[0067] Peak intensity:

[0068]

[0069] In formula (1), D 0.9 is the distance between the upper and lower bounds of the data values where 90% of the data points in the sample are located, x max is the maximum value in the data, x min is the minimum value in the data. This feature index is mainly used to identify outliers in the data. When there are outliers in the sample, the value of I p is close to 0;

[0070] Standard deviation:

[0071]

[0072] In formula (2), x i is the value of each data point, μ is the sample mean, and N is the total number of data points in the sample. This characteristic index is mainly used to identify sub-minimum and out-of-range anomalies in the data. The standard deviation extracted from out-of-range data is significantly higher than that extracted from normal data, while the standard deviation of sub-minimum data is significantly smaller than that of normal data;

[0073] Linearity:

[0074]

[0075] In formula (3), max(|Δx i |) is the maximum value of the absolute deviation between the smooth curve and the fitting straight line of all data points in the sample, and x max and x min are the maximum and minimum values in the sample respectively. This characteristic index is mainly used to identify drift anomalies in the data. The R L value corresponding to normal data should be close to 0, while drift anomalies usually show irregular up and down fluctuations of the data, and the R L is larger; trend anomalies are manifested as the baseline tilt of the data, but the corresponding R L value is as close to 0 as that of normal data;

[0076] Linear fitting slope: The slope of the fitting straight line obtained by using the least squares linear regression for all data points in the sample, which represents the degree of baseline offset. This characteristic index is mainly used to identify trend anomalies in the data.

[0077] Step 3.2: Manually label the abnormal pattern labels for the generated image samples and statistical features. Common data abnormal patterns include outliers, sub-minimum, drift, trend, missing, out-of-range oscillation, etc.; Taking the acceleration data in the bridge SHM system as an example, common samples of various abnormal patterns are as Figure 2 shown;

[0078] Step 4: Establish a multi-modal convolutional neural network model. Use the data sets from multiple bridges, and input the grayscale images and the corresponding statistical features into the network model for training at the same time; By fusing the data of multiple bridges, the problem of low recognition accuracy of some abnormal patterns caused by data set imbalance can be eliminated;

[0079] The multi-modal convolutional neural network designed by the present invention includes a convolutional layer, a pooling layer and a fully connected layer. The overall structure is divided into three parts: an image encoder, a statistical feature encoder and a fusion classifier, as Figure 3As shown in the figure. Among them, the image encoder is based on the ResNet neural network. The last fully connected layer is removed. It receives grayscale image inputs of size 224×224 and extracts the image features therein, outputting 512 image feature vectors. The statistical feature encoder consists of two fully connected layers, activated by the ReLU function in the middle. It receives the numerical inputs corresponding to 4 statistical features and maps them to 512-dimensional features (the same dimension as the image features). The fusion classifier concatenates and fuses the extracted image features and statistical features. The image features capture spatial patterns, and the statistical features provide context information. The final classification is achieved through a fully connected layer.

[0080] The ResNet model introduces the structure of residual blocks. As Figure 4 shown, the residual block consists of two convolutional layers, and each convolutional layer is followed by a batch normalization layer and a ReLU activation function.

[0081] The purpose of batch normalization is to make the data distribution of each layer input in the network more stable and accelerate the learning speed of the model. The batch normalization formula is as follows:

[0082]

[0083] In formula (4): x i is the input sample, μ is the sample mean, σ is the sample variance, ∈ is a very small value used to prevent the denominator from being zero, and γ and β are the scaling parameter and the offset parameter, which perform a linear transformation on the standardized data.

[0084] The ReLU activation function has the characteristics of low computational complexity and can effectively alleviate the problems of gradient explosion and gradient disappearance that may occur in the training of neural networks. The formula is:

[0085] f(x) = max(0, x) (5)

[0086] The structure of the residual block can alleviate the phenomenon of gradient disappearance or gradient explosion caused by the deepening of the network layers, and at the same time can reduce the occurrence of overfitting in deep networks.

[0087] Step 4.1: Manually label the abnormal pattern labels for the SHM datasets of multiple bridges, and divide the datasets into a training set and a validation set according to the ratio of 8:2. The training set should mainly include the data samples of the bridges to be measured. For the abnormal patterns with a small number, use the data samples of other bridges for supplementation to avoid the influence of data imbalance.

[0088] Step 4.2: Train the network weight parameters suitable for abnormal data recognition based on the designed multi-modal convolutional neural network model, adjust the hyperparameters according to the training results, and obtain the optimal training model.

[0089] The hyperparameters of the multi-modal convolutional neural network in the present invention include the learning rate, the size of batch input, the regularization coefficient, etc., and the hyperparameters are optimized according to the training results during the training process. The number of iterations is set to 50, and the model is trained. The training process is as Figure 5 shown. As the number of iterations increases, the training accuracy and the validation accuracy increase steadily. When the number of iterations reaches 50, the validation accuracy exceeds 98%. The training results show that in the case of fusing multi-bridge SHM data samples, the data structure of the training set is more balanced. At the same time, the multi-modal convolutional neural network model effectively combines image features and statistical features, and also retains the independent representation ability of each modality, and can realize automatic recognition and classification of SHM data anomalies with high accuracy.

[0090] Step 5: Use the trained convolutional neural network model to identify anomalies in the target bridge SHM data.

[0091] Step 5.1: Segment the SHM data of the bridge to be measured and convert it into a grayscale image, hiding the coordinate axes.

[0092] Step 5.2: Input the data samples of the bridge to be measured into the trained multi-modal convolutional neural network model for recognition and classification to obtain the abnormal patterns to which they belong.

[0093] The present invention uses a multi-modal convolutional neural network model to identify abnormal data, fuses the SHM time-series data of multiple bridges, fuses the SHM time-series data of multiple bridges and combines their image features and statistical features, and synchronously inputs them into the designed multi-modal convolutional neural network for training, and automatically identifies and classifies different patterns of anomalies in the bridge SHM data with high accuracy according to the deep learning algorithm, providing a basis for bridge operation status evaluation and early warning.
