[0055] Please refer to the drawings in the specification Figure 1 The present application is a non-woven fabric surface uniformity online detection method, which comprises the following process steps:

[0056] 1), online image acquisition and preprocessing, i.e., real-time acquisition of dynamic cloth surface images on the non-woven fabric production line scene, preprocessing through gray scale conversion and median filtering to generate preprocessed images meeting the requirements of detection unit gray scale feature extraction. This step specifically includes:

[0057] 1-1), real-time capture of images of non-woven fabric moving on the conveyor belt with the help of an industrial camera.

[0058] 1-2), the collected color image is converted into a gray image.

[0059] 1-3), the noise in the image is eliminated using median filtering, and the filament profile is highlighted through edge detection technology to form a pre-processed gray profile image, providing a data basis for subsequent operations.

[0060] 2), define the width direction of the cloth as the X-axis and the running direction as the Y-axis. Along the X-axis and Y-axis directions, divide the rectangular detection unit Cell(i,j) according to the fixed width L , ), where i=1, 2,...,M, j=1, 2,...,N, M is the total number of units in the width direction, and N is the total number of units in the motion direction. Then calculate the gray feature value in each detection unit.

[0061] Among them, the gray feature value includes the mean value , the standard deviation , and the maximum value Max i,j . The mean value can reflect the average density of the fibers in the detection unit; the standard deviation reflects the dispersion degree of the pixel gray scale, which can reflect the density fluctuation of the fibers in the detection unit, and the specific calculation method is as follows:

[0062] , ,

[0063] In the formula, i and j are the gray mean value of the jth unit in the X-axis and Y-axis of the detection unit, respectively; is the total number of pixels in a single detection unit, which is determined by the camera resolution; is the gray value of the kth pixel in the ith and jth detection unit.

[0064] This step 2) avoids blurring of subtle uneven defects by dividing the cloth surface into standardized detection units and calculating the gray mean value, standard deviation, maximum value and other multi-dimensional features, and fully quantifies the uniformity of the unit.

[0065] 3), the units divided in step 2) are numbered along the X-axis and Y-axis directions, respectively; for the gray feature value of each X-axis detection unit, a sequence is established along the Y-axis direction; for the gray feature value of each Y-axis detection unit, a sequence is established along the X-axis direction, thereby forming a bidirectional feature sequence, breaking through the limitation of the prior art that can only detect locally and instantaneously, and realizing long-term overall monitoring in time and space dimensions.

[0066] Specifically, the sequence construction method is specifically:

[0067] For each X-axis position X i , the feature values of the corresponding detection cells are collected in time sequence to form a three-dimensional time sequence:

[0068] wherein, represents the gray scale feature variation sequence of the i-th detection cell along the Y-axis from the starting end to the current real-time detection position range; i represents the number of the detection cell on the X-axis, ; is the N-th feature vector in the detection cell numbered i along the Y-axis direction from the starting position to the detection place ; , are the gray scale mean, standard deviation, and maximum value, respectively;

[0069] For each Y-axis position , the feature values of the corresponding detection cells are collected in position sequence to form a three-dimensional position sequence:

[0070] wherein, represents the gray scale feature variation sequence of the j-th detection cell along the X-axis from one end of the cloth to the other end; j represents the number of the detection cell on the Y-axis, ; is the M-th feature vector in the detection cell numbered j along the X-axis direction from one end of the cloth to the detection place .

[0071] 4), the feature vectors of the detection cells Cell( , ) are constructed, the abnormal clusters of the gray scale feature values in the sequences described in step 3) are analyzed by using the K-means clustering algorithm, the cells with abnormal values are marked, the uniformity rate index is calculated according to the total number of abnormal cells, and the results of processing all the sequences are marked on the cloth surface to visualize the analysis results.

[0072] Specifically, to eliminate the influence of different feature dimensions on the clustering results, the feature vectors constructed by the detection cells Cell( , ) are first standardized, and the formula is as follows:

[0073]

[0074] wherein, : the standardized feature value; : the original value of the k-th feature of the i, j-th cell; : the mean value of the k-th feature of all cells; : Standard deviation of the k-th feature of all units.

[0075] The method for analyzing abnormal jumps of gray feature values by the K-means clustering algorithm is: presetting a cluster number K=2, dividing the feature space into a normal cluster and an abnormal cluster, respectively corresponding to a standard fabric and a non-standard fabric, wherein the cluster label of the normal cluster is 0, and the normal cluster center is C0; the cluster label of the abnormal cluster is 1, and the abnormal cluster center is C1.

[0076] The normal cluster center The mean of the gray feature vector of the 100 qualified non-woven fabric samples ; the abnormal cluster center : The mean of the gray feature vector of the historical abnormal sample, if there is no historical data, initialized as .

[0077] In the iteration process, input the normalized gray feature vector sequence , the maximum iteration number , and the convergence threshold is: , output the cluster label 0 or 1 of each detection unit; the iteration process is specifically:

[0078] The assignment stage: for each feature vector, calculate the Euclidean distance with the current cluster center , , and assign it to the cluster with a closer distance: the expression is as follows:

[0079]

[0080] In the formula, is the normalized gray feature vector, is the normal cluster center, is the abnormal cluster center.

[0081] The update stage: recalculate the mean of all feature vectors within each cluster as the new cluster center : the expression is as follows:

[0082]

[0083] Wherein, is the normalized feature vector, is the total number of feature vectors within the k-th cluster; is the set of all feature vectors contained in the K-th cluster.

[0084] If the cluster center does not change or reaches the maximum iteration number , terminate the iteration; otherwise, replace the old cluster center with the new cluster center , the assignment phase continues iteration.

[0085] The result of iteration is that the feature vectors of normal clusters are centralized around , and satisfy: where is the normal fluctuation threshold, which can be set as initial value according to historical data. The feature vectors of abnormal clusters are far away from , which can be manifested as significant deviation of mean value and too large standard deviation, and abnormal maximum value.

[0086] Further, to adapt to the subtle changes of raw materials, environment and other factors in the production process, the system updates the normal cluster center every hour based on the latest normal samples (feature vectors of nearly 100 qualified detection units), and adjusts using exponential smoothing method, the formula is as follows:

[0087]

[0088] is the normal cluster center of the tthhour; is the smoothing weight, fixed at 0.3; is the mean value of the feature vectors of the latest 100 normal units in the tthhour; is the normal cluster center of the t−1thhour.

[0089] After the cluster center is updated, the assignment phase continues iteration.

[0090] Further, the specific method for marking the unit where the abnormal value is located is:

[0091] For the sequence T i with X-axis number i, if a certain feature vector is determined to be an abnormal cluster, the area where the abnormal cluster is located is marked with yellow, and the number of abnormal clusters is recorded as i ; if 2 or more consecutive detection units are marked with dark yellow.

[0092] For the sequence with Y-axis number j, if a certain feature vector is determined to be an abnormal cluster, the area where the abnormal cluster is located is marked with yellow, and the number of abnormal clusters is recorded as j ; if 3 or more consecutive detection units are marked with dark yellow.

[0093] For the same detection unit in Y-axis time sequence and X-axis position sequence, if it is determined to be abnormal, the number of such units is recorded as , and the area is marked with red.

[0094] Further, the uniformity index is U, i.e. the proportion of normal unit number, and the calculation method is as follows:

[0095]

[0096] Wherein, is the total number of detection units of the cloth surface;

[0097]

[0098] Wherein: i is the number of abnormal clusters of sequence T i ; j is the number of abnormal clusters of sequence P j ; is the number of the same detection unit being determined as abnormal cluster in the bidirectional sequence.

[0099] If U is greater than or equal to 0.95, it is marked as high-quality cloth surface, if 0.85 is less than U and is less than 0.95, it is marked as good cloth surface, and if U is less than 0.85, it is marked as extremely uneven cloth surface.

[0100] In summary, the step 4) adopts the K-means clustering algorithm of dynamic updating normal cluster center, the single sequence + bidirectional cross classification abnormal marking and the quantitative uniformity rate calculation, and the cloth surface condition is visualized.

[0101] 5), according to the detection result, triggering early warning, prompting the staff to adjust in time, realizing the online detection of non-woven fabric uneven rate.

[0102] The step is specifically: when the total number of abnormal detection units determined by K-means clustering in step 4) accounts for more than 5% of the total number of detection units of the cloth surface or in the same sequence, 5 or more continuous detection units are determined as abnormal cluster, the system automatically triggers voice early warning to prompt the worker; the early warning feedback information needs to include the specific coordinate unit Cell , ) of the abnormal detection unit, so as to facilitate the worker to quickly locate the abnormal area of the cloth surface; at the same time, the system records the feature data of this abnormality in the background, i.e. the three-dimensional feature value of the abnormal unit. The worker can check the running parameters of the system combined with the feedback early warning information, and timely adjust the process parameters to correct the uneven problem of the cloth surface, realizing real-time online quality control.

[0103] The present application triggers multi-level early warning based on the detection result, realizes the in-process control of production parameters, replaces manual detection to avoid fatigue misjudgment, finally realizes the accurate and efficient online detection of non-woven fabric uniformity, successfully upgrades the detection mode from "instantaneous local" to "long time whole", and significantly improves the production quality and control ability.
