This method can effectively reveal the performance degradation of the LED under different working environments, especially the influence of current fluctuation and temperature change on light intensity and stability.

[0030] The specific acquisition steps of the thermal effect adjustment coefficient μ1 and the light intensity-current interaction adjustment coefficient μ2 stored in the database are as follows: the thermal effect and the interaction effect of current and light intensity of the LED light source under different working environment conditions are obtained through systematic experiments and modeling, in the experimental process, the LED light source runs under different current and temperature environments, collects temperature data and light intensity data at multiple time points, and through statistical analysis and optimization algorithm (such as genetic algorithm, particle swarm optimization algorithm or neural network model) processing of these data, the adjustment effect of temperature fluctuation on the performance of the LED, i.e. the thermal effect adjustment coefficient, can be obtained, in addition, for the interaction effect of current and light intensity, similar methods are used, combined with the light intensity data under different current conditions, a mathematical model of the interaction adjustment between current and light intensity is established, these adjustment coefficients help the system to accurately reflect the complex relationship between current fluctuation and light intensity, through continuous optimization and adjustment, these coefficients are stored in the database, so as to adjust the adjustment parameters of the LED in real time in actual application, to ensure its stability and efficiency, through this method, the database not only stores static influence coefficients, but also records dynamic adjustment parameters in the system running, ensuring more accurate performance evaluation and adjustment.

[0031] The specific implementation example of calculating the comprehensive defect evaluation index of the LED light source is as follows, the following parameters are given:

[0032] The light intensity difference defect index of the LED light source is about 0.763.

[0033] The light intensity influence coefficient stored in the database is about 1.452.

[0034] The current fluctuation defect index of the LED light source is about 0.540.

[0035] The current influence coefficient stored in the database is about 1.621.

[0036] The local thermal effect defect index of the LED light source is about 0.815.

[0037] The thermal effect adjustment coefficient stored in the database is about 1.134.

[0038] The thermal effect influence coefficient stored in the database is about 0.942.

[0039] The light intensity-current interaction adjustment coefficient stored in the database is about 1.365.

[0040] The light intensity-current interaction influence coefficient stored in the database is about 0.890.

[0041] The above data are respectively substituted into the specific formula for calculating the comprehensive defect evaluation index of the LED light source to obtain:

[0042] The comprehensive defect evaluation index of the LED light source is (1.452x0.763)+(1.621x0.540)+(1+0.942x((0.815)^1.134))+(1+0.890x((0.763x0.540)^1.365))≈4.995.

[0043] Specifically, the light intensity time sequence image data includes light intensity images at a plurality of time points, and each light intensity image includes pixel values of a plurality of light source points, i.e. light intensity (brightness) at the light source point position, the light source point positions and quantities in each light intensity image are consistent and one-to-one correspond to the respective light source points in the LED light source, which is used to reflect the brightness intensity distribution of the LED light source points, and the specific steps for obtaining the light intensity difference defect index of the LED light source are as follows: the light intensity images of the LED light source at a plurality of time points under input of a plurality of test currents are respectively comprehensively analyzed to obtain a light intensity difference feature set of the LED light source, including average pixel values, pixel time variance values of a plurality of light source points under input of a plurality of test currents, and time pixel mean values of a plurality of time points; the pixel values of the plurality of light source points in the light intensity images of the LED light source at a plurality of time points under input of a plurality of test currents are respectively combined with the light intensity difference feature set of the LED light source for comprehensive analysis to obtain the light intensity difference defect index of the LED light source.

[0044] The specific formula for calculating the light intensity difference defect index of the LED light source is as follows: Wherein, GqQ is the light intensity difference defect index of the LED light source, XsZ i(u+1)r is the pixel value of the rth light source point in the light intensity image of the LED light source at the u+1th time point under the input of the ith test current, XsZ iur is the pixel value of the rth light source point in the light intensity image of the LED light source at the u+1th time point under the input of the ith test current, XsZ ir is the average pixel value of the rth light source point of the LED light source under the input of the ith test current, XsF ir is the pixel time variance value of the tth light source point of the LED light source under the input of the ith test current, δ1 is the time variance influence coefficient stored in the database, SxS in is the time pixel mean value of the yth time point of the LED light source under the input of the ith test current, δ2 is the time pixel influence coefficient stored in the database, i = 1, 2, 3, …, i0, i0 is the number of test currents, u = 1, 2, 3, …, u0, u0 is the number of time points, r = 1, 2, 3, …, r0, r0 is the number of light source points.

[0045] It needs to be explained that the specific acquisition steps of the time variance influence coefficient δ1 and the time pixel influence coefficient δ2 stored in the database are: by recording the light intensity image data of the LED light source at multiple different time points (such as t1, t2, t3, …), then using variance analysis to calculate the time variance of the light intensity change in the image data, that is, the dispersion degree of the light intensity change between different time points, as the time variance influence coefficient, at the same time, by analyzing the pixel points of the light intensity image at each time point, the performance of each pixel point at different times is calculated, and the time pixel influence coefficient is further obtained. These two coefficients are obtained by regression analysis or data fitting method, and are stored in the database for subsequent use in calculating the light source difference and evaluating the light intensity change.

[0046] In this embodiment, the light intensity difference defect index of the LED light source is defined and calculated in detail, and the performance of the light source is accurately evaluated through the time variance influence coefficient and the time pixel influence coefficient. By analyzing the variance and pixel points of the light intensity image data at multiple different time points, not only the temporal changes of the light source can be effectively captured, but also the light intensity fluctuations and non-uniformity of the LED light source under different current conditions can be revealed, so as to identify potential defects. This method can combine time series data with pixel-level data to provide more comprehensive and accurate defect evaluation than traditional static detection methods. First, by comprehensively analyzing the light intensity time series image data of the LED light source under different current conditions, and combining the influence of time variance and time pixel, the stability and health status of the LED light source under long time and multiple current conditions can be reflected in detail, which is crucial for revealing the brightness non-uniformity or degradation caused by current fluctuation and temperature change. Second, by storing and using the time variance influence coefficient and the time pixel influence coefficient in the database, important references are provided for subsequent light intensity difference defect detection, and the detection method is more automated and intelligent, reducing the deviation and error of human operation. This method not only improves the defect detection accuracy of the LED light source, but also considers the influence of current and temperature change on light intensity through time series data analysis, effectively improving the reliability and applicability of the detection results. By using these coefficients comprehensively, the performance of the LED light source can be dynamically monitored, and scientific basis is provided for subsequent maintenance and performance optimization, enhancing the stability and life of the LED light source in practical application.

[0047] Specifically, as shown in Figure 3 The specific steps of obtaining the light intensity difference feature set of the LED light source are as follows: reading the pixel values of the light source points in the light intensity images at several time points under several test currents, and performing time point analysis (i.e. mean value analysis for several time points) to obtain the average pixel values of the light source points under several test currents; reading the pixel values of the light source points in the light intensity images at several time points under several test currents, and performing variance analysis combined with the average pixel values of the light source points under several test currents to obtain the pixel time variance values of the light source points under several test currents; reading the pixel values of the light source points in the light intensity images at several time points under several test currents, and performing light source point pixel analysis (i.e. pixel mean value analysis for several light source points) to obtain the time pixel mean values (pixel mean values of the light source points in the light intensity images) at several time points under several test currents.

[0048] In this embodiment, through multi-dimensional data analysis method, how to calculate the light intensity difference characteristic set of LED light source is explained in detail, including average pixel value, pixel time variance value and time pixel mean value, so as to provide key data support for accurate evaluation of LED light source defects. First, through mean value analysis of light intensity image at each time point, the light intensity stability of light source point under different current conditions can be understood. Second, through variance analysis, the volatility of light source point between multiple time points can be captured, further revealing whether there is non-uniformity or decay problem of LED light source. Finally, pixel mean value analysis provides data basis for detecting the brightness change trend of each light source point. These steps can help the system to more accurately identify the potential defects of LED light source, and improve the accuracy and comprehensiveness of defect detection.

[0049] Specifically, the specific steps of obtaining the current fluctuation defect index of the LED light source are as follows: obtaining the test current values of each test current at several time points, and comprehensively analyzing the test current difference values of each test current (i.e. the test current difference values of adjacent time points); and comprehensively analyzing the test current difference values of each test current in combination with the pixel values of the light source points in the light intensity images of the LED light source under the input of several test currents at several time points, to obtain the current fluctuation defect index of the LED light source.

[0050] The specific formula for calculating the current fluctuation defect index of the LED light source is as follows: Wherein, DqQ is the current fluctuation defect index of the LED light source, XsZ i(u+1)r is the pixel value of the rth light source point in the light intensity image of the LED light source at the u+1th time point under the input of the ith test current, XsZ iur is the pixel value of the rth light source point in the light intensity image of the LED light source at the uth time point under the input of the ith test current, ε is the pixel adjustment factor stored in the database, which is used to prevent the denominator from being 0, CfD ia is the ath test current difference value of the ith test current, χ is the current adjustment factor stored in the database, which is used to prevent the denominator from being 0, β is the difference current adjustment coefficient stored in the database, i = 1, 2, 3, …, i0, i0 is the number of test currents, u = 1, 2, 3, …, u0, u0 is the number of time points, r = 1, 2, 3, …, r0, r0 is the number of light source points, a = 1, 2, 3, …, a0, a0 is the number of test current difference value groups.

[0051] It needs to be explained that the specific acquisition steps of the differential current adjustment coefficient β stored in the database are as follows: first, record the current fluctuation data of the LED light source at multiple time points under different current intensities, that is, the change amount of current at each time, calculate the differential value of current fluctuation by statistical analysis of these data, evaluate the influence of current fluctuation on LED performance, then use regression analysis or optimization algorithm (such as least squares method, gradient descent, etc.) to fit the relationship between current fluctuation and LED performance indicators (such as brightness change, temperature fluctuation, etc.), thereby obtaining the differential current adjustment coefficient, which reflects the adjustment effect of current fluctuation on LED stability and efficiency, and is stored in the database for subsequent calculation and real-time adjustment.

[0052] In the embodiment, by combining the calculation of the test current differential value and the light intensity image data, the influence of current fluctuation on the performance of the LED light source can be effectively identified, especially whether the light intensity fluctuates at different time points and under current changes. The advantage of this method is that the differential current adjustment coefficient can reflect the specific influence of current fluctuation on the stability and efficiency of the LED light source, further improving the accuracy of LED light source defect detection. The existing technology often ignores the details of current fluctuation, resulting in insufficient evaluation of the stability and efficiency of the LED light source. The current adjustment coefficient obtained by regression analysis or optimization algorithm can combine current fluctuation with factors such as light intensity change and temperature fluctuation of the LED, ensuring that the performance of the LED light source can be accurately evaluated under current changes. In addition, real-time adjustment using the adjustment coefficient in the database not only improves the automation level of the system, but also provides a more scientific basis for subsequent maintenance and adjustment. Overall, this method effectively improves the dynamic stability detection of the LED light source and provides solid technical support for the reliability and efficiency optimization of LED products in practical applications.

[0053] Specifically, the temperature time sequence image data includes temperature images at several time points, and each temperature image includes temperature values of several light source points, that is, the surface temperature at the light source point position. The light source point positions and quantities in each temperature image are consistent and one-to-one correspond to each light source point in the LED light source, which is used to reflect the temperature distribution of the LED light source point. The specific steps to obtain the local thermal effect defect index of the LED light source are as follows: perform feature analysis on the temperature time sequence image data of the LED light source under several test currents to obtain the temperature difference feature set of the LED light source, including the time temperature mean value and temperature time gradient value at several time points under several test currents; and perform comprehensive analysis on the temperature values of the several light source points in the temperature images at the several time points under the several test currents of the LED light source, respectively combined with the temperature difference feature set of the LED light source to obtain the local thermal effect defect index of the LED light source.

[0054] The specific formula for calculating the local thermal effect defect index of the LED light source is as follows: Wherein, RqQ is the local thermal effect defect index of the LED light source, WdZ iur is the temperature value of the rth light source point in the temperature image of the LED light source at the u th time point under the input of the i th test current, SwZ iu is the time temperature mean value of the LED light source at the u th time point under the input of the i th test current, θ is the temperature adjustment factor stored in the database, which is used to prevent the denominator from being 0, SwT iu is the temperature time gradient value of the LED light source at the u th time point under the input of the i th test current, ω is the temperature gradient adjustment coefficient stored in the database, ξ is the temperature gradient influence coefficient stored in the database, i = 1, 2, 3, …, i0, i0 is the number of test currents, u = 1, 2, 3, …, u0, u0 is the number of time points, r = 1, 2, 3, …, r0, r0 is the number of light source points.

[0055] It needs to be explained that the specific acquisition steps of the temperature gradient adjustment coefficient ω and the temperature gradient influence coefficient ξ stored in the database are as follows: first, in the experiment, record the temperature change of the LED light source under different current conditions, especially the temperature gradient at different time points, the temperature image data at each time point will be used to calculate the temperature gradient, that is, the temperature change rate of each pixel point, then, through regression analysis or machine learning method (such as multiple regression or support vector machine), the relationship between temperature gradient and LED performance (such as light intensity, stability, etc.) is analyzed to obtain the temperature gradient adjustment coefficient, which represents the adjustment effect of temperature gradient on LED performance, at the same time, the temperature gradient influence coefficient reflects the influence of temperature gradient under different current and temperature conditions, which is obtained through data fitting or optimization algorithm, finally, these coefficients are stored in the database and used as key parameters in subsequent defect evaluation, ensuring the stability and efficiency of LED under different working conditions.

[0056] In this embodiment, by detailing how to calculate the local thermal effect defect index of LED light source using temperature time series image data, a comprehensive analysis framework is provided to accurately evaluate the thermal effect of LED light source under different current and temperature conditions. First, the temperature time series image data is analyzed by time point by time point analysis of the temperature value of each light source point, combined with the time temperature mean and temperature gradient, which can effectively capture the local temperature fluctuation and thermal inhomogeneity of LED light source, thus providing important data support for defect detection. Through regression analysis or machine learning method, the calculated temperature gradient adjustment coefficient and temperature gradient influence coefficient can accurately reflect the influence of different temperature gradient on the performance of LED light source, providing accurate basis for real-time evaluation. The existing technology usually ignores the complex influence of temperature gradient, while this method makes up for this deficiency through detailed analysis of temperature gradient, providing in-depth understanding of the thermal effect of LED light source. In addition, the storage of temperature gradient adjustment coefficient and temperature gradient influence coefficient in the database makes the dynamic adjustment and real-time feedback of the system possible. In practical application, these coefficients can dynamically adjust the performance evaluation of LED light source according to different current and temperature changes, ensuring the stability and reliability of LED light source under various working conditions.

[0057] Specifically, the specific steps of obtaining the temperature difference feature set of the LED light source are as follows: reading the temperature values of a plurality of light source points in the temperature image of the LED light source at a plurality of time points under a plurality of test currents, and respectively performing light source point temperature analysis (i.e. temperature mean value analysis for a plurality of light source points) to obtain the time temperature mean value (temperature mean value of a plurality of light source points in the temperature image) of the LED light source at a plurality of time points under a plurality of test currents; for each light source point in the temperature image of the LED light source at a plurality of time points under a plurality of test currents, a plurality of adjacent light source points within a set neighborhood range are identified respectively; the temperature values of each light source point in the temperature image of the LED light source at a plurality of time points under a plurality of test currents are respectively analyzed in combination with the temperature values of a plurality of adjacent light source points within the set neighborhood range of the corresponding light source point to obtain the temperature time gradient value of the LED light source at a plurality of time points under a plurality of test currents, specifically, the temperature values of the light source point and the temperature values of a plurality of adjacent light source points within the set neighborhood range are analyzed by absolute difference value to obtain a plurality of temperature absolute difference values, wherein the absolute difference value is the absolute value of the difference value, and the number thereof corresponds to the number of adjacent light source points, and the mean value of a plurality of temperature absolute difference values is calculated to obtain the local temperature time gradient value of the light source point, and the mean value analysis of a plurality of local temperature time gradient values of a plurality of light source points is performed to obtain the temperature time gradient value; the local temperature time gradient value of each light source point in the temperature image of the LED light source at a plurality of time points under a plurality of test currents is analyzed in combination (i.e. mean value analysis) to obtain the temperature time gradient value of the LED light source at a plurality of time points under a plurality of test currents.

[0058] In the embodiment, through detailed analysis steps, the temperature image data and the local temperature time gradient value are used to provide an accurate thermal effect evaluation method for LED light source defect detection. Firstly, through temperature mean value analysis of each light source point, the temperature stability of the LED light source under different current conditions can be identified; secondly, through temperature value difference analysis of adjacent light source points within the neighborhood range, the influence of local temperature fluctuation and temperature gradient on the performance of the LED light source is further revealed; finally, this analysis method based on time temperature mean value and local temperature time gradient value can effectively capture the possible local overheating problem of the LED light source and provide a reliable basis for subsequent defect evaluation, thereby comprehensively and accurately analyzing the thermal effect of the LED light source under different current and time conditions and providing more accurate evaluation results than traditional methods. This method significantly improves the accuracy of thermal effect detection, makes the defect identification of the LED light source more comprehensive, and plays a positive role in performance optimization and stability guarantee of the LED light source in practical applications.
