Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of alarm devices, and in particular to a feeder fault monitoring and alarm method and system based on machine vision. Background Art

[0002] As power systems continue to expand in size and complexity, feeders, as key components of power transmission, are crucial for the reliability of the entire power grid. Feeder failures can not only cause localized power outages but can also trigger chain reactions, leading to widespread blackouts. Therefore, effective monitoring and timely warning of feeder equipment have become crucial tasks in power system operations and maintenance.

[0003] Currently, feeder fault monitoring primarily relies on regular manual inspections and traditional electrical parameter measurement methods. These methods include using infrared thermal imagers to detect feeder temperature anomalies, using partial discharge detectors to monitor insulation performance, and analyzing feeder operating conditions using electrical parameters such as current and voltage. With technological advancements, automated monitoring systems are gradually being implemented, such as remote monitoring based on Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems and distributed temperature monitoring using fiber optic sensors.

[0004] However, existing feeder fault monitoring technology still has some shortcomings. First, manual inspections are limited by human resources and inspection frequency, making it difficult to achieve real-time, continuous monitoring of feeder equipment. Second, while traditional electrical parameter measurement methods can partially reflect the operating status of the feeder, they cannot fully capture subtle changes in the appearance of feeder equipment, such as discoloration of the insulation layer, rust on metal components, and other early signs of degradation. Finally, existing automated monitoring systems mainly focus on detecting and locating feeder faults when they occur, and lack continuous tracking and early warning mechanisms for the progressive aging characteristics of feeders during long-term use. These shortcomings limit the early detection of feeder faults and the implementation of preventive maintenance.

[0005] Currently, no effective solutions have been proposed for the problems in related technologies. Summary of the Invention

[0061] In one embodiment, the feeder equipment image includes an image of the feeder terminal body, an image of the aerial plug interface, and an image of the opening and closing position indicating device;

[0062] The enhanced images under typical weather conditions include feeder equipment enhanced images on sunny days, feeder equipment enhanced images on rainy days, feeder equipment enhanced images on foggy days, and feeder equipment enhanced images at night.

[0063] In one embodiment, based on feeder equipment images captured by industrial cameras, an enhanced image is generated using an image fusion algorithm, and the quality of the enhanced image under typical weather conditions is optimized using an adaptive illumination compensation model to obtain standardized feeder equipment image data, including the following steps:

[0064] S11. Establish an original image dataset based on the feeder terminal body image, the aerial plug interface image, and the opening and closing position indication device image captured by the industrial camera;

[0065] S12. Perform feature-level fusion on the original image dataset using an image fusion algorithm, and combine it with real-time meteorological data to generate enhanced images of feeder equipment on sunny days, enhanced images of feeder equipment on rainy days, enhanced images of feeder equipment on foggy days, and enhanced images of feeder equipment at night;

[0066] S13. Optimize the quality of the feeder equipment enhanced image on a sunny day, the feeder equipment enhanced image on a rainy day, the feeder equipment enhanced image on a foggy day, and the feeder equipment enhanced image at night using an adaptive illumination compensation model to obtain standardized feeder equipment image data.

[0067] In one embodiment, the image fusion algorithm is used to perform feature-level fusion on the original image dataset, and combined with real-time meteorological data, to generate enhanced images of feeder equipment on sunny days, enhanced images of feeder equipment on rainy days, enhanced images of feeder equipment on foggy days, and enhanced images of feeder equipment at night, respectively, including the following steps:

[0068] S121. Perform feature-level fusion on the original image dataset based on a multi-scale decomposition and weighted average fusion method, and combine it with clear-day meteorological data to generate a clear-day feeder equipment enhanced image.

[0069] Specifically, the multi-scale decomposition and weighted average fusion method in S121 utilizes the Non-Subsampled Contourlet Transform (NSCT) technique. An adaptive weighted average method based on regional energy is used for low-frequency subbands, while a selective fusion rule based on local Laplacian energy is employed for high-frequency subbands. An inverse NSCT transform is used to generate an enhanced image of the clear-sky feeder equipment, effectively improving image clarity and contrast.

[0070] S122. Processing the original image dataset using a rain line detection and removal algorithm, and combining it with rainy day meteorological data to generate an enhanced image of the feeder equipment on a rainy day;

[0071] Specifically, the rain line detection and removal algorithm in S122 combines an improved Sobel operator with a deep learning network. It first detects rain line features, then performs rain removal processing. Finally, a guided filter is applied to restore details, generating an enhanced image of the feeder equipment on rainy days. This effectively removes rain line interference while preserving the original structural information.

[0072] S123, optimizing the original image dataset using an improved dark channel prior defogging algorithm, and combining it with foggy meteorological data to generate an enhanced image of the feeder equipment in foggy weather;

[0073] Specifically, the improved dark channel prior dehazing algorithm in S123 combines adaptive gamma correction and local contrast enhancement. Guided filtering is used to optimize transmittance estimation, adaptive gamma correction is applied to adjust global brightness, and finally, a local contrast enhancement algorithm (CLAHE) is used to generate an enhanced image of the feeder equipment in foggy weather, effectively removing the effects of haze and avoiding over-enhancement.

[0074] S124. Process the original image data set using an adaptive brightness enhancement and noise suppression algorithm, and combine it with nighttime meteorological data to generate a nighttime feeder equipment enhanced image.

[0075] Specifically, the S124's adaptive brightness enhancement and noise suppression algorithms are based on a multi-scale approach based on Retinex theory. Nonlinear mapping is performed on the separated illumination components, and a modified bilateral filter is applied to the reflectance components to suppress noise. These components are then recombined and color restored to generate enhanced images of nighttime feeder equipment, effectively improving nighttime image quality and suppressing noise.

[0076] In one embodiment, the adaptive illumination compensation model is expressed as:

[0077] ;

[0078] Where x is the horizontal coordinate of the pixel in the image, y is the vertical coordinate of the pixel in the image, and I c (x, y) is the compensated feeder device image, R(x, y) is the reflection component, L'(x, y) is the adjusted illumination component, I(x, y) is the pixel value of the original feeder device image at coordinate (x, y), L(x, y) is the estimated original illumination component, α is the illumination intensity adjustment coefficient, and β is the illumination offset adjustment parameter.

[0079] In one embodiment, a deep learning model is used to extract features from standardized feeder equipment image data, a visual feature vector of the feeder equipment is established based on the extracted texture features, color features, and shape features, and a time series analysis algorithm is used to analyze the changing trend of the visual feature vector to obtain an aging assessment index for the feeder equipment. The following steps are included:

[0080] S21. Extract features from the standardized feeder equipment image data based on a pre-trained deep convolutional neural network to obtain a multi-level feature map;

[0081] S22. Establishing a visual feature vector of the feeder device based on the multi-level feature map; wherein the visual feature vector of the feeder device includes texture features, color features, and shape features;

[0082] S23. Use a time series analysis algorithm to perform trend analysis on the visual feature vectors at consecutive time points to generate an aging evaluation index for the feeder equipment.

[0083] Specifically, the time series analysis algorithm uses a sliding window autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA) model. First, the visual feature vectors at consecutive time points are differentiated to stabilize the time series. Then, the order of the ARIMA model is determined through autocorrelation function (ACF) and partial autocorrelation function (PACF) analysis. Model parameters are estimated using maximum likelihood estimation, and the optimal model is selected using the Akaike Information Criterion (AIC). Finally, the trained ARIMA model is used to predict feature vectors at several future time points. By comparing the deviation between the predicted and actual values, the aging trend of the feeder equipment is determined.

[0084] In one embodiment, establishing a visual feature vector of a feeder device based on a multi-level feature map includes the following steps:

[0085] S221. Obtain texture features of the feeder device image using a gray-level co-occurrence matrix and a local binary pattern algorithm;

[0086] Specifically, texture feature extraction in the S221 utilizes the Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix (GLCM) and Local Binary Pattern (LBP) algorithms from machine vision. GLCM calculates statistics such as energy, contrast, entropy, and correlation to capture global texture information. LBP compares the grayscale values ​​of a central pixel with those of its neighbors to generate a binary code that describes the local texture structure. Combining these two methods can comprehensively characterize subtle texture variations on the surface of feeder equipment, such as fine lines caused by aging insulation or minor corrosion marks on metal components.

[0087] S222. Extracting color features of the feeder device image based on color moment and color histogram methods;

[0088] Specifically, color feature extraction in S222 utilizes color moment and color histogram methods from machine vision. Color moments calculate the first-order moment (mean), second-order moment (variance), and third-order moment (skewness) of an image in the RGB or HSV color space, describing the overall characteristics of the color distribution. Color histograms count the number of pixels for each color component, reflecting the local distribution of color. These features effectively capture color variations on the surface of feeder equipment, such as fading insulation or hue changes caused by metal oxidation.

[0089] S223. Generate shape features of the feeder device image through contour analysis and morphological operations;

[0090] Specifically, shape feature generation in S223 utilizes contour analysis and morphological operations in machine vision. The Canny edge detection algorithm is first used to extract the outline of the feeder equipment. Geometric features such as perimeter, area, and circularity are then calculated. Morphological operations such as opening and closing are used to remove noise and fill small holes. These techniques accurately describe geometric variations in the feeder equipment, such as connector deformation or insulation expansion.

[0091] S224. Construct a visual feature vector of the feeder device according to the texture features, color features, and shape features of the feeder device image.

[0092] Specifically, the visual feature vector constructed in S224 is constructed by normalizing and concatenating the features obtained in the previous three steps. Specifically, texture features (GLCM statistics and LBP histograms), color features (color moments and color histograms), and shape features (geometric parameters) are dimensionally normalized and then concatenated into a high-dimensional vector. This combined visual feature vector comprehensively characterizes the appearance of the feeder equipment, providing a reliable data foundation for subsequent condition assessment and fault warning.

[0093] In one embodiment, the expression for the aging evaluation index of the feeder equipment is:

[0094] ;

[0095] ;

[0096] ;

[0097] ;

[0098] Where, I is the aging evaluation index of feeder equipment, T i (t), C i (t) and S i (t) are the i-th component of the texture feature, color feature and shape feature of the feeder equipment image at time point t, N is the dimension of the feature vector, ΔT(t), ΔC(t) and ΔS(t) are the feature change rates of the texture feature, color feature and shape feature of the feeder equipment image at T consecutive time points, respectively. t 、w c and w s are texture feature weights, color feature weights, and shape feature weights, respectively, and w t +w c +w s =1.

[0099] In one embodiment, performing time series prediction and risk assessment based on the aging evaluation index of feeder equipment and utilizing a fuzzy inference system combined with an expert knowledge base to generate graded alarm information includes the following steps:

[0100] S31. Use a long short-term memory network to perform time series prediction on the aging evaluation index of the feeder equipment to obtain an aging trend prediction result;

[0101] Specifically, the LSTM time series prediction model in S31 employs a multi-layered architecture, consisting of an input layer, multiple LSTM hidden layers, and a fully connected output layer. The model is trained using the Adam optimizer and the Mean Separation Error (MSE) loss function, and uses a sliding window method to predict aging indicators for M future time points. Exponential smoothing techniques are applied post-processing to improve prediction stability and effectively capture long-term trends and cyclical variations in feeder equipment aging.

[0102] S32. Based on the historical fault data of the feeder equipment and the aging evaluation index of the feeder equipment, a feeder fault risk assessment model is constructed using support vector machine technology to generate a fault risk probability;

[0103] Specifically, the SVM fault risk assessment model in S32 uses the RBF kernel function. Parameters are optimized through grid search and cross-validation, and the SMOTE algorithm is used to address sample imbalance. Platt scaling is used to convert the SVM output into probabilities, and SHAP values ​​are introduced to analyze feature importance. This method accurately assesses the fault risk of feeder equipment and provides a quantitative analysis of risk factors.

[0104] S33. Combine the aging trend prediction results and the failure risk probability, conduct a comprehensive analysis through the fuzzy reasoning system, match them with the pre-established expert knowledge base, and output graded alarm information.

[0105] Specifically, the fuzzy inference system in S33 employs the Mamdani inference model. First, the aging trend prediction results and failure risk probability are used as input variables to define corresponding fuzzy sets and membership functions. Then, a fuzzy rule base is designed based on expert knowledge, such as "If the aging trend is rapid and the failure risk is high, the alarm level is urgent." Fuzzy inference is performed using the min-max synthesis method to obtain fuzzy outputs, which are then defuzzified using the center of gravity method to determine the alarm level. Combined with an expert knowledge base containing typical failure modes and treatment recommendations, detailed alarm information is generated through semantic matching.
