[0028] The terminal may be, but is not limited to, various personal computers, laptops, smart phones, tablet computers, and portable wearable devices.

[0029] In one embodiment, Figure 1 As shown, a method for detecting separation of a separator screen surface based on machine vision is provided, the method comprising: Step S100: deploying an image acquisition component based on a screen surface illumination fitness model, and performing texture enhancement processing on the screen surface image acquired by the image acquisition component to obtain a texture enhancement factor; Step S200: extracting the particle distribution density according to the texture enhancement factor, and constructing a global separation consistency index of the entire screen surface state according to the particle distribution density; Step S300: generating a significance weight according to the global separation consistency index; Step S400: generating a screen surface defect judgment result according to the significance weight reconstruction and a preset screen surface defect judgment threshold.

[0030] This embodiment deploys an image acquisition component based on the screen surface illumination fitness model, and performs texture enhancement processing on the screen surface image collected by the image acquisition component to obtain a texture enhancement factor; extracts the particle distribution density based on the texture enhancement factor, and constructs a global separation consistency index of the entire screen surface state based on the particle distribution density; generates a significance weight based on the global separation consistency index; and generates a screen surface defect judgment result based on the significance weight reconstruction and a preset screen surface defect judgment threshold. This application introduces a multi-scale texture enhancement and dynamic blocking mechanism to enhance the texture features of the screen surface in the context of complex particle movement, and performs refined identification of abnormal screen surface separation areas and intelligent classification of defect types, thereby improving the accuracy and stability of anomaly detection.

[0031] In one embodiment, step S100: deploying an image acquisition component based on a screen surface illumination fitness model, and performing texture enhancement processing on the screen surface image acquired by the image acquisition component to obtain a texture enhancement factor, includes: Step S110: constructing a screen surface illumination adaptability model under illumination reflection conditions, and adjusting the light source angle and intensity of the image acquisition component according to the model to deploy the image acquisition component; Step S120: performing dynamic blocking and multi-scale texture enhancement processing on the screen surface image acquired by the image acquisition component to obtain a texture enhancement factor.

[0032] In this embodiment, to provide input image data for subsequent screen surface feature extraction, the core objective is not simply to capture images; it also requires parameterized modeling of illumination conditions, combining the screen surface material and the reflective properties of the material particles. Therefore, a model of the screen surface's illumination adaptability under these conditions is constructed, and the image acquisition component's light source angle and intensity are adjusted based on this model to facilitate deployment.

[0033] The screen surface illumination fitness model uses the average brightness of the screen surface area, the particle boundary clarity and the noise-background ratio to construct a screen surface illumination fitness index. The screen surface illumination fitness model is specifically as follows:

[0034] in, is the light adaptability of the screen surface. It is the average grayscale value of the screen surface image per unit area, which is calculated by statistically averaging the grayscale values ​​of pixels in the unit area and then using a grayscale image or converting a color image into a grayscale image. Used to reflect the overall brightness level of the area and measure the uniformity of lighting; This is the image edge clarity coefficient. It uses the Sobel or Canny operator to detect edges in an image and calculates the average intensity of edge responses within a unit area. This reflects the clarity of particle or sieve boundaries within the area and affects image separability. The signal-to-noise ratio is calculated by comparing the standard deviation of the background area with the grayscale value of the main image area. It indicates the degree to which non-target areas in the image interfere with the recognition effect. The more complex the background, the higher the value. It is a tiny constant set to prevent the denominator from being zero. It is pre-set by those skilled in the art to a fixed constant much smaller than 1, such as 0.001. It is only used to ensure the numerical stability of the model calculation and does not depend on the image content.

[0035] The image acquisition component will be based on the maximum The light source angle and intensity are adjusted according to the criterion, and the image state that is most conducive to subsequent image segmentation and feature extraction is selected to ensure that the quality of subsequent input images reaches the optimal state. The existing technology often ignores the reflection differences between screen surface materials such as metal and rubber and material particles such as coal powder and gravel at different lighting angles, resulting in blurred texture details in the image or difficulty in edge recognition, especially in scenes with strong reflections or high noise backgrounds. In contrast, in this embodiment, the screen surface illumination fitness model automatically performs a round of illumination scanning after the image acquisition component is deployed, that is, adjusts different light source angles and intensities, collects corresponding images, and calculates the illumination fitness index for each frame of the image in real time. ; Then, according to The size of determines whether the current configuration is optimal. If the value does not reach the preset threshold, adjust the parameters and continue collecting until After reaching the optimum or convergence stability, lock the current lighting conditions for formal sampling. The corresponding preset threshold can be set through experimental calibration, i.e., collecting multiple sets of images under typical sieve surface and particle conditions, and calculating the lower limit of illumination fitness that meets the requirements of clear edge recognition and low noise interference. In practical applications, it can be set to an empirical value between 15.0 and 20.0. The specific value is determined by those skilled in the art and is not specifically limited in this application.

[0036] The method disclosed in this embodiment can dynamically adjust parameters based on real-time lighting changes in complex dusty environments such as coal mines, sand and gravel plants, and metallurgical workshops, ensuring image acquisition stability. The system can optimize image quality in extremely reflective environments, such as metal screens, or in low-light conditions, such as those associated with nighttime operations, by adjusting the light source array directionality, fill light ratio, and exposure parameters of the acquisition device.

[0037] Furthermore, in order to solve the problem in the prior art that the use of a unified enhancement strategy for the entire image may easily lead to information loss in local areas of the image due to particle accumulation, occlusion, local reflection, etc. in a complex screening environment, and unified enhancement often leads to noise amplification or areas with blurred edges and cannot effectively improve image separability, therefore, in step S120, the screen surface image collected by the image acquisition component is dynamically segmented and multi-scale texture enhanced to obtain a texture enhancement factor.

[0038] Specifically, dynamic block processing dynamically divides the overall task into smaller "blocks" for independent processing based on data characteristics or runtime resource availability to improve efficiency, adapt to changes, or enhance robustness. In this embodiment, a weighted judgment is made based on the brightness change rate, particle distribution gradient, and grayscale contrast to accurately segment different areas.

[0039] In each image block , the corresponding texture enhancement factor as follows:

[0040] in, It is the screen surface illumination adaptability outputted in step S110 and is the stability weight at the whole image level.

[0041] It is a region The grayscale gradient amplitude average reflects the intensity of local texture changes. Apply the Sobel operator, calculate the gradient amplitude of each pixel and then average it. Used to indicate the intensity of texture changes. It is the skewness of the regional grayscale distribution, which measures whether the regional texture distribution is balanced. It counts the skewness of the grayscale values ​​of all pixels in the region and reflects the symmetry of the grayscale distribution. It is usually implemented by the third-order center distance formula. It is the texture enhancement factor, which indicates whether the region should be enhanced in texture extraction and is the basis for deciding whether the region should be enhanced.

[0042] By calculating each area ,like If the value is greater than the texture response threshold set by the system, the area is judged as a "weak texture area" and needs to be enhanced. The enhancement operation includes local contrast stretching, edge response weighting, and directional filter (such as Gabor) application. All enhancement operations are performed in The texture response threshold can be set according to the actual device resolution. Alternatively, the setting of the texture response threshold can be based on the statistical analysis of sample images, such as calculating the texture response threshold for a large number of screen surface images in different states. The threshold is selected based on the distribution of values. The minimum value that covers more than 80% of the areas with clear texture is used as the threshold to ensure that only areas with weak texture are enhanced. In practice, if the device resolution is 1080p and the grain size is medium, the threshold can be set to 1.2-1.5. For example, if it is set to 1.3, the system will only enhance areas below this value, ensuring that enhancement resources are concentrated on low-quality image blocks.

[0043] In addition, the use of this model can also enable the system to intelligently decide "enhanced budget allocation" based on the image status, that is, to concentrate limited computing resources on The area with high value is selected to improve the overall computing efficiency and image quality.

[0044] In summary, this step further expands the dimensions of screen surface image processing, focusing not only on global image quality but also on fine-grained structural analysis of local complexity. For example, when the screen surface is partially clumped, accumulated, or obscured by wet material, conventional enhancement processing often fails to effectively restore details. However, the method in step S120 can identify these low-texture active areas and perform weighted enhancement, making subsequent feature extraction and defect identification more accurate.

[0045] In one embodiment, step S200: extracting the particle distribution density according to the texture enhancement factor, and constructing a global separation consistency index of the entire screen surface state according to the particle distribution density, including: Step S210: setting a dynamic texture weight model according to the texture enhancement factor, constructing a quantifiable image index for the separation state, and extracting the particle distribution density; Step S220: constructing a global separation consistency index of the entire screen surface state based on the extracted particle distribution density.

[0046] In this embodiment, to address the problem that most existing methods for identifying screen surface status only perform rough statistics on screen surface particle distribution through simple pixel binarization or edge recognition, which cannot fully reflect complex working conditions such as local accumulation, hole blockage, or uneven loading, a dynamic texture weight model is set according to the texture enhancement factor to construct a quantifiable image indicator for the separation state and extract the particle distribution density. Based on the extracted particle distribution density, a global separation consistency indicator for the entire screen surface state is then constructed.

[0047] The dynamic texture weight model is as follows:

[0048] in, It is the texture enhancement factor, which reflects the image quality and information richness of the area. It is the number of particles identified in the area and can be output by the machine vision detection module, that is, the image acquisition component. It is the area of ​​the region, representing the unit area range, that is, the area range corresponding to an image block area. It indicates the actual particle distribution density in the area and is also used to indirectly estimate the sieve porosity of the area. The mapping relationship is converted into the proportion of the sieve holes blocked, thereby indirectly estimating the sieve hole porosity. Estimate the available void ratio of the sieve area and determine whether there are any abnormal screening conditions such as particle accumulation, pore blockage or material overloading in the area. After the image is divided into blocks, count the particles in each area. , and combined with the area of ​​the region and the texture enhancement factor from step S2, calculate The larger the value, the denser the particle coverage in the area, and the image quality is good enough, with high analysis reliability. Next, set a sieve visual saturation threshold. If If the threshold is exceeded, it is initially judged as a "blocked or overloaded" area, otherwise it is a normal screening area. This method realizes density weighted estimation based on image readability, which has higher stability and accuracy than the traditional method based on quantitative statistics alone. Among them, the sieve visual saturation threshold can be obtained by measuring the sieve under normal screening conditions. Perform statistics and take 90%-95% of the upper limit as the critical value, for example, set it to 0.045 particles / pixel 2 If the value exceeds this value, it is judged as a local blockage or overload area.

[0049] Therefore, this embodiment introduces a texture enhancement factor into particle density modeling, taking into account not only the number of particles but also regional image quality and legibility as weighted indicators, thereby constructing a dynamic texture weighting model. Furthermore, while traditional models often overlook the visual usability of the sieve apertures, this method, based on particle identification, further estimates the porosity of the regional sieve apertures—the degree to which the sieve surface is covered by particles. This porosity estimation provides a quantitative basis for subsequent screening efficiency evaluation and anomaly detection, possessing high practical value.

[0050] Next, in order to solve the problem that the existing screen surface detection methods mostly stay in the local area of ​​particle accumulation identification or simple average value statistics, and cannot systematically evaluate whether the entire screen surface operation status has global separation unevenness, material flow deviation or screen hole partition blockage, the regional particle density index output in the previous step is fused and analyzed across the entire screen surface, and the global consistency index is used to calculate the particle density of the entire screen surface. Quantify the stability and balance of material separation on the screen surface. By statistically analyzing the deviation of each area's density from the overall average density, this model not only detects blockage but also identifies early signs of screen imbalance, enabling more proactive fault warning and separation quality control. Compared to traditional methods that only measure total particle count or local maxima, this model is more robust and has greater applicability.

[0051] The global separation consistency index is used to determine whether there are problems such as uneven separation, local blockage, or uneven distribution. Specifically, the global separation consistency index is as follows:

[0052] in, is the particle distribution density. Yes all The average value is the particle distribution benchmark of the entire screen surface. is the number of regions into which the image is divided, indicating the number of regions into which the image is divided in the vertical direction (rows), N indicates the number of regions into which the image is divided in the horizontal direction (columns), and M·N is the total number of regions into which the image is divided. is the variance-weighted consistency evaluation index of particle distribution density, that is, the global separation consistency index, and The dimension of is the same. The global separation consistency index indirectly reflects the uniformity of the material distribution during the operation of the separator screen. If it is significantly greater than the threshold, it means there is a risk of regional particle accumulation or local pore blockage, and then the next stage is to perform abnormal significance modeling and screening defect classification. The corresponding threshold can be calculated by multiple normal screen surface sample images The value distribution is calculated, and the mean plus double the standard deviation is taken as the uneven separation warning threshold, which can be set to 0.006 particles / pixel. 2 If the value is exceeded, it is determined that there is obvious particle accumulation or unevenness on the screen surface.

[0053] In this embodiment, special consideration is given to the non-ideal conditions in industrial operation, for example, part of the screen surface may have a serious deviation in particle density due to material adhesion, screen hole wear or uneven feeding. The indicators can effectively detect whether abnormal areas have systematic deviations or developmental accumulation trends, achieving the transition from local analysis to global judgment.

[0054] In one embodiment, step S300: generating a significance weight according to the global separation consistency index includes: Step S310: constructing a local anomaly significance assessment model based on the global separation consistency index; Step S320: Outputting a significance weight based on the local anomaly significance assessment model.

[0055] Step S330: Identifying areas with severe separation abnormalities in the sieve surface image based on the significance weights.

[0056] In this embodiment, in order to solve the problem that traditional screen surface abnormality detection is mostly based on a single particle density or texture feature, it is difficult to take into account the separation deviation and image complexity of the abnormal area at the same time, resulting in a high false alarm rate and insufficient abnormality recognition ability under complex screen surface working conditions, a local abnormality significance evaluation model is constructed according to the global separation consistency index in this embodiment; and the significance weight is output based on the local abnormality significance evaluation model.

[0057] Specifically, the local anomaly significance evaluation model is as follows:

[0058] in, is the particle distribution density. yes The average value of . is a global separation consistency indicator. It is a very small number that prevents the denominator from being zero. It is an indicator of regional texture complexity, which is calculated by the change of local directional gradient. Specifically, it is obtained by counting the image gradient direction in the region, such as the Sobel direction angle, or the variance of the local structure tensor. The larger the value, the more complex the texture and the more uneven the structure, indicating the richness of image details and texture diversity. is the significance weight, which quantifies the confidence and risk level of the anomaly in the area. Classify each area of ​​the screen surface and extract abnormal areas with severe separation. First, calculate the relative deviation of the particle density of each area from the overall average density, and divide the result by the overall consistency index to obtain the standardized abnormal deviation coefficient. Then, multiply the deviation coefficient by the texture complexity index. , comprehensively consider the particle distribution anomaly and image texture characteristics, thereby improving the reliability of anomaly recognition. The risk of each area is graded based on the size of the risk factor, and high-risk abnormal areas are screened out.

[0059] Specifically, first count all regions The numerical distribution of risk is then divided into risk levels based on quantile thresholds, such as 85% and 95%. For example, areas with values ​​above the 95th percentile are defined as "high risk," those between 85% and 95% as "medium risk," and those below 85% as "low risk." Furthermore, the location of the areas on the screen surface, such as concentration at the discharge end or in the center, can be combined for further weighting and optimization, accurately screening out high-risk abnormal areas. These serve as key input for reconstructing the screen surface's operating status and subsequent automatic diagnosis.

[0060] Therefore, this embodiment, through steps S310-S320, can accurately locate abnormal areas on the screen surface and classify their risk levels. By introducing texture complexity weights, the model is not only sensitive to deviations in particle distribution but also dynamically adjusts the confidence level of abnormalities based on image details, significantly improving the resistance to interference and accuracy of abnormality screening, greatly enhancing the practical value of abnormality diagnosis.

[0061] In one embodiment, the screen surface defect judgment threshold includes a first abnormality significance threshold, a second abnormality significance threshold and a morphological stability judgment threshold; Step S400: generating a screen surface defect judgment result according to the significance weight reconstruction and a preset screen surface defect judgment threshold, including: Step S410: constructing a classification function according to the significance weight and the first abnormal significance threshold, the second abnormal significance threshold, and the morphological stability determination threshold; Step S420: generating a screen surface defect judgment result according to the classification function.

[0062] In this embodiment, in order to solve the problem that in the prior art, screen surface defects mostly adopt simple threshold judgment or empirical rule classification, lack in-depth analysis of the morphological characteristics of abnormal areas, resulting in inaccurate defect type judgment and poor adaptability, this embodiment constructs a classification function based on the significance weight and the first abnormal significance threshold, the second abnormal significance threshold, and the morphological stability judgment threshold; and then generates a screen surface defect judgment result based on the classification function.

[0063] The classification function uses a defect classification model based on block association cluster density, which is as follows:

[0064] in, is the significance weight, reflecting the abnormality degree of the region. is the regional particle morphology stability. The first abnormal significance threshold and the second anomaly significance threshold , Set as abnormal area 80% quantile or above, The 95% quantile of the normal area of ​​all samples is usually taken. This is the threshold for determining morphological stability. The coefficient of variation (CV) of particle outlines across all image regions, such as the ratio of the standard deviation of area and perimeter to the mean, is calculated. The median or 70th percentile of this value, calculated under normal screening conditions, is used as the threshold. Values ​​below this threshold indicate relatively consistent particle morphology and high morphological stability. is the final defect classification label.

[0065] The classification function determines the defect type based on the regional abnormal significance weight and particle morphology stability. In the defect classification model, the regional particle morphology stability The coefficient of variation calculation based on the particle contour reflects the regularity and consistency of the particle morphology. Specifically, it can be obtained by calculating the coefficient of variation of the contour area of ​​all identified particles in the region, that is, dividing the standard deviation of the particle area by its average value. The smaller the value, the more consistent the particle morphology and the more regular the distribution.

[0066] Anomaly significance threshold middle, Used to distinguish the severity of anomalies; final defect classification label In the figure, 1 indicates accumulation blockage, 2 indicates eccentric load dispersion, and 3 indicates normal area.

[0067] This classification function determines defect types based on both the significance weight of the regional anomaly and the particle morphological stability. Regions with high anomaly weights and low morphological stability are classified as accumulation and blockage (Type 1), indicating a backlog of material with irregular morphology. Regions with high anomaly weights and high morphological stability are classified as eccentric load dispersion (Type 2), reflecting material displacement but relatively regular particle distribution. Regions with low anomaly weights are classified as normal (Type 3). This dual-metric approach effectively avoids misjudgments caused by a single metric, enhancing the accuracy and stability of defect identification.

[0068] In this embodiment, the method is also provided with a continuous time frame analysis mechanism, which incorporates the change process of the screen surface image within a time window into the analysis logic, and is used to judge the dynamic stability and trend evolution characteristics of the screening state, so as to achieve early warning of "potential fault precursors".

[0069] The continuous time-series frame analysis mechanism does not determine the degree of abnormality in a single frame of image, but rather determines whether the "evolution trend" of the abnormality is continuously amplified. To this end, in a continuous time period, the system records and analyzes the distribution of significant areas, the fluctuation in the number of defect labels, and the spatial migration trajectory of the center point of the abnormal area. Specific methods include: First, trend variation judgment: by recording the changes in abnormal labels in the same area in consecutive images, if the abnormal labels continue to increase, it is considered as potential unstable evolution.

[0070] Secondly, spatial drift feature extraction: track the movement trajectory of the center point of each abnormal area over time to determine whether there is a continuous trend of concentration toward the edge or middle of the screen surface.

[0071] Next, the dynamic intervention mechanism recommends output: Based on the dynamic stability results, the system makes adjustment suggestions, such as reducing the feed rate, temporarily pausing the vibration module, checking the response of the eccentric load sensor, and other operational suggestions.

[0072] Compared with traditional image analysis systems that mostly focus on static judgment, this application has the ability to identify and respond to temporal trends; it can achieve early detection of minor but continuously aggravating screen surface faults, such as the continuous spread of small blockages and the evolution of large-scale accumulation; it constructs a closed-loop logic path between image recognition results and control instructions, which is conducive to the subsequent formation of an intelligent control system.

[0073] Therefore, this embodiment achieves intelligent identification and classification of various screen surface defect types through inter-regional correlation clustering. This not only improves the accuracy of defect classification, but also effectively distinguishes different fault modes such as accumulation blockage and uneven load dispersion. This provides a more targeted basis for automatic adjustment and maintenance decision-making during the screening process, significantly enhancing the system's intelligence and practical value.

[0074] In general, the separator screen surface separation detection method and system based on machine vision described in the present application, by deploying an image acquisition component based on the screen surface illumination fitness model, and performing texture enhancement processing on the screen surface image acquired by the image acquisition component, obtains a texture enhancement factor, and adjusts the image acquisition conditions by constructing an illumination fitness model to ensure the illumination balance and detail clarity of the screen surface image, thereby significantly improving the image quality and the robustness of subsequent analysis; by extracting the particle distribution density according to the texture enhancement factor, and constructing a global separation consistency index of the entire screen surface state according to the particle distribution density; generating a significance weight according to the global separation consistency index; and reconstructing and presetting the screen surface defect according to the significance weight. The screen surface defect judgment result is generated by the trap judgment threshold, and the multi-scale texture enhancement and dynamic blocking mechanism are introduced, which can enhance the texture characteristics of the screen surface under the background of complex particle movement, effectively improve the particle boundary recognition ability, and construct the screen surface separation consistency index based on the extracted particle distribution density, breaking the traditional isolated judgment method of local anomalies and realizing the quantitative description of the global state of the screen surface; in addition, the application also combines the local anomaly significance evaluation model and classification function to perform fine identification of the screen surface separation abnormal area and intelligent classification of defect types, which not only improves the accuracy and stability of anomaly detection, but also can effectively distinguish different screen surface abnormality types such as blockage and overloading, solving the problems of lack of detailed classification of anomalies and high misjudgment rate in the existing technology.
