[0057] Example 1
[0058] Please refer to Figure 1 The diagram illustrates a flowchart of an embodiment of the power equipment overheating location method based on infrared hyperspectral imaging of the present invention. The power equipment overheating location method based on infrared hyperspectral imaging includes the following steps:
[0059] Step S1: Simultaneously acquire infrared and hyperspectral multimodal data, and preprocess the multimodal data.
[0060] In this embodiment, the electronic device (e.g., a server / terminal device) running on the infrared hyperspectral imaging-based power equipment overheating location method can receive power equipment overheating location requests via wired or wireless connections. It should be noted that the aforementioned wireless connection methods may include, but are not limited to, 3G / 4G / 5G connections, WiFi connections, Bluetooth connections, WiMAXX connections, Zigbee connections, UWB (ultra-wideband) connections, and other currently known or future-developed wireless connection methods.
[0061] In this embodiment, step S1, which involves simultaneously acquiring infrared and hyperspectral multimodal data and preprocessing the multimodal data, specifically includes the following steps:
[0062] S11 performs spatiotemporal calibration of both infrared and hyperspectral sensors to ensure the consistency of the position of the same physical point in the two imaging data.
[0063] A high-precision mechanical support and electronic triggering system are used to rigidly fix an infrared camera (response band 8–14 μm) and a hyperspectral camera (visible-near-infrared band 400–1000 nm) to the same platform, and the acquisition timing is controlled by a GPS synchronization module. The mechanical rigid fixation can greatly reduce the changes in the relative motion between the two cameras (i.e., external parameters R and T) caused by vibration and other factors, ensuring the stability of the spatial relationship.
[0064] Electronic triggering and GPS synchronization ensure that both cameras are exposed at the same time (or within a known minimal time difference). This is crucial for spatiotemporal calibration. If the acquisition times are not synchronized, moving equipment or changing scenes can cause calibration failure.
[0065] Using a checkerboard calibration board, the extrinsic parameters (rotation matrix R and translation vector T) and intrinsic parameters (focal length and distortion coefficients) between the two sensors are calculated to establish a pixel-level mapping relationship.
[0066] Where, x hyper and y hyper x represents the pixel coordinates in the hyperspectral image. ir and y ir K represents the pixel coordinates in the infrared image. ir K is the intrinsic parameter matrix of the infrared camera (containing parameters such as focal length and principal point). hyper R is the intrinsic parameter matrix of the hyperspectral camera, R is the rotation matrix between the two cameras, and T is the translation vector between the two cameras.
[0067] The checkerboard pattern provides a large number of high-contrast, well-defined, and geometrically regular (square size known) feature points. The coordinates of these corner points in the 3D world and their 2D pixel coordinates in the two camera images are known, providing sufficient data constraints for accurate calculation of camera parameters.
[0068] By employing step S11, a geometric correspondence between infrared and hyperspectral images can be established, ensuring the consistency of the position of the same physical point in the two modal data, thus providing a foundation for subsequent multimodal data fusion.
[0069] S12 is used for radiation calibration and atmospheric correction.
[0070] A high-precision surface blackbody (temperature control range 300-500K, covering common fault temperatures of power equipment) was used as a reference radiation source to establish a quantitative relationship between camera pixel grayscale values and known radiance, thus completing radiometric calibration.
[0071] Based on Planck's blackbody radiation law, the calibrated radiance value L λ Convert to the absolute temperature value of the object's surface: Where T is the absolute temperature (unit: K), λ is the wavelength (unit: m), and L is the wavelength. λ Spectral radiance (unit: W·m-) 2 ·sr- 1 ·m- 1 c1 is the first radiation constant, with a value of 3.7418 × 10⁻⁶. -16 W·m 2 c2 is the second radiation constant, with a value of 1.4388 × 10⁻⁶. -2 m·K.
[0072] The purpose of radiometric calibration is to convert the radiance value measured by the infrared camera into an accurate temperature value by using Planck's law to invert the temperature T, thereby achieving non-contact temperature measurement.
[0073] Hyperspectral data were converted for reflectance using the Empirical Linear Model (ELM), and the MODTRAN model was used to eliminate the effects of atmospheric absorption (such as water vapor and carbon dioxide). By inputting information such as imaging time, location, and meteorological parameters, the atmospheric transport process was simulated to obtain the true spectral reflectance data of ground objects.
[0074] The purpose of atmospheric correction is to eliminate differences in sensor response and environmental interference, convert raw data into physical quantities (temperature, reflectivity), and improve data reliability.
[0075] S13 performs abnormal pixel filtering and data augmentation.
[0076] An adaptive median filter is used to process impulse noise in infrared images, and the Savitzky-Golay smoothing algorithm for hyperspectral data is combined to suppress random noise. This algorithm can dynamically adjust the size of the filtering window, effectively suppressing noise while preserving the sharpness and detail of hot spot edges to the maximum extent, preventing blurring of overheated target features.
[0077] For random noise in the spectral dimension, the Savitzky-Golay smoothing algorithm is adopted. This algorithm smooths the noise through local polynomial least squares fitting, which can effectively improve the signal-to-noise ratio while preserving the original shape and width of spectral absorption and reflection characteristics (i.e., maintaining spectral shape preservation) and avoiding the introduction of distortion.
[0078] To address the issue of insufficient samples, a data augmentation algorithm based on Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) is applied to generate diverse overheating samples. To solve the model overfitting problem caused by the scarcity of on-site overheating samples, GANs are introduced for data augmentation. By training an adversarial game between the generator and discriminator, the distribution characteristics of multimodal data (infrared thermograms and corresponding hyperspectral curves) of power equipment in both normal and overheated states are learned, thereby generating synthetic overheating samples with reasonable physical meaning and diverse forms.
[0079] The purpose of step S13 is to improve the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR≥40dB), expand the training dataset, and enhance the model's generalization ability.
[0080] Step S2: Based on the preprocessed multimodal data, complementary features are extracted from the infrared and hyperspectral data, and feature-level fusion is achieved through deep learning.
[0081] In this embodiment, step S2, which involves extracting complementary features from infrared and hyperspectral data based on the preprocessed multimodal data and achieving feature-level fusion through deep learning, specifically includes the following steps:
[0082] S21, Based on the preprocessed multimodal data, infrared temperature distribution features are extracted.
[0083] The U-Net network is used to segment the power equipment area and extract the statistical features of local temperature gradients and hot spots.
[0084] The temperature gradient magnitude is calculated for each pixel within the device's area, used to quantify the spatial drasticness of temperature changes. Local temperature gradient: Where G(x,y) is the magnitude of the temperature gradient at point (x,y) (unit: K / m), and a larger value indicates a more rapid temperature change at that point. Let x be the rate of temperature change in the x-direction. Let be the rate of temperature change in the y-direction.
[0085] By calculating the local temperature gradient, the severity of temperature changes can be quantified, which helps to identify areas of temperature anomalies.
[0086] Hotspot statistical characteristics include temperature standard deviation, skewness, and kurtosis. Higher-order statistics are calculated within the segmented equipment area or suspected overheated region to describe the distribution pattern of the temperature field.
[0087] Temperature standard deviation characterizes the degree of temperature dispersion within a region; a larger value indicates a more uneven heat distribution.
[0088] Skewness measures the asymmetry of temperature distribution. Positive skewness indicates the presence of a few high-temperature points (right-skewed distribution) and is a strong indicator of overheating.
[0089] Kurtosis reflects how steep the temperature distribution curve is compared to a normal distribution. High kurtosis means the temperature distribution is more concentrated, with a thicker tail, and may contain outliers.
[0090] From a statistical perspective, we can deeply characterize the overall morphology of hot spots and distinguish between normal thermal gradients caused by uneven solar radiation and genuine local fault overheating.
[0091] For dynamically monitored data, calculate the rate of temperature change for a specific area over time. The rate of temperature change over time (if dynamically monitored) is: Where R(t) represents the rate of temperature change at time t (unit: K / s or K / min), ΔT is the amount of temperature change, and Δt is the time interval.
[0092] The purpose of calculating the temperature change rate over time is to characterize the rate of temperature change over time, which helps to identify fault points that are rapidly heating up.
[0093] The purpose of step S21 is to characterize the surface temperature distribution pattern and initially locate abnormal hot areas.
[0094] S22, perform hyperspectral substance identification feature extraction.
[0095] The ResNet-50 network is used to extract deep spectral-spatial features from hyperspectral images. Its deep network structure can automatically and efficiently learn complex spectral-spatial joint features in hyperspectral data cubes, capturing subtle patterns that are difficult for the human eye to recognize. These deep features serve as high-level abstract representations for subsequent classification tasks.
[0096] The deep spectral-spatial features of hyperspectral images include spectral absorption features, spatial texture features, and material classification features.
[0097] Key wavelengths (such as characteristic absorption peaks at 550 nm for CuO and 650 nm for Fe2O3) are extracted using the Continuous Projection Algorithm (SPA) to extract spectral absorption features. To further enhance the interpretability and physical meaning of the model, the SPA algorithm is used for key wavelength selection. SPA accurately selects the most information-rich characteristic wavelengths (such as characteristic absorption valleys around 550 nm for CuO and around 650 nm for Fe2O3) for identifying specific substances by minimizing collinearity between wavelengths. This significantly reduces data dimensionality, highlights the spectral features most relevant to the chemical composition of substances, and provides direct chemical evidence for fault diagnosis.
[0098] Spatial texture features are extracted by using Gabor filter banks to extract texture responses in different directions. Multi-scale, multi-directional Gabor filter banks are used to filter images in specific bands (such as key bands or principal components across the entire band selected by SPA). Gabor filters, similar to the human visual system in frequency and direction, can describe and extract texture features characterizing the surface state of equipment (such as insulator glaze erosion, metal surface roughness variations, and contaminant distribution).
[0099] Support Vector Machines (SVMs) are used to distinguish equipment materials (such as ceramic insulators, copper wires, and silicon steel sheets), extracting material classification features. These extracted deep features, spectral features, and texture features are then fused to construct a high-dimensional feature vector. High-performance classifiers such as SVMs are then used to accurately classify and identify equipment materials (such as ceramics, copper, and silicon steel sheets) and surface conditions (such as oxidation, corrosion, and contamination). This precise identification of material composition and surface conditions provides crucial contextual information for temperature anomaly analysis. For example:
[0100] Distinguish between normal heating (such as the normal temperature rise of copper wires due to their resistance and current) and fault heating (such as abnormal overheating of wire clamps due to contact oxidation and increased resistance).
[0101] Identify the cause of overheating (such as overheating caused by local electric field distortion due to contaminants adhering to the insulator, whose spectral characteristics differ from those of a clean insulator). The output of this step is the core decision-making basis for determining the nature of the overheating (physical normal overheating vs. chemical / fault-related abnormal overheating), greatly improving the accuracy and reliability of fault diagnosis.
[0102] The purpose of step S22 is to identify the material and oxidation state of the equipment and help determine the nature of the heat generation (normal heat generation or fault heat generation).
[0103] S23 performs cross-modal feature fusion based on infrared temperature distribution characteristics and hyperspectral material identification characteristics.
[0104] A Dual-Stream Attention Fusion Network (DSAF) is designed, comprising an infrared stream input of a temperature distribution map and a hyperspectral stream input of cubic data (spatial-spectral dimensions). Using the temperature distribution map (or preprocessed infrared image) extracted in step S21 as input, a CNN module further extracts deep, thermally relevant spatial features F. ir .
[0105] Hyperspectral Stream: Taking atmospherically corrected hyperspectral data cubes (spatial-spectral dimensions) as input, it extracts deep material composition and spatial texture features F through a 3D-CNN or spectral-spatial separated CNN module. hyper .
[0106] Instead of simple concatenation or weighted averaging, this mechanism dynamically calculates the relevance weights between features from two modalities using a cross-attention mechanism. Specifically, this mechanism allows each modality's features to query the most relevant information from the other modality. The formula for calculating feature weights using the cross-attention mechanism is:
[0107] Where, α ij The attention weight between the i-th infrared feature and the j-th hyperspectral feature is... Let i be the i-th infrared feature vector. Let be the j-th hyperspectral feature vector, and sim(·) be the cosine similarity function.
[0108] Calculate the feature weights α ij The formula can adaptively calculate the correlation weights between features of different modalities, enabling targeted feature fusion.
[0109] The weighted and fused features undergo further nonlinear transformation and dimensionality reduction in a fully connected layer, ultimately generating a highly discriminative joint feature vector rich in multimodal information for final fault diagnosis and location. Integrating temperature and material information enhances the ability to infer internal heat sources.
[0110] Step S3: Based on the surface data, the distribution of internal heat sources of the equipment is inverted to achieve three-dimensional spatial positioning.
[0111] In this embodiment, step S3, which involves retrieving the internal heat source distribution of the device based on surface data to achieve three-dimensional spatial positioning, specifically includes the following steps:
[0112] S31, Construct a heat conduction model.
[0113] Based on the equipment structure, establish a three-dimensional partial differential equation (PDE) for heat conduction: Where ρ is the material density (unit: kg / m³) 3 ), c p Specific heat capacity (unit: J / (kg·K)), Let k be the rate of change of temperature over time, and k be the thermal conductivity (unit: W / (m·K)). Let Q be the temperature gradient, and Q be the intensity of the internal heat source (unit: W / m). 3 ).
[0114] It can describe the heat conduction process inside the device and establish a physical model from the internal heat source to the surface temperature distribution.
[0115] The solution is obtained by discretization using the finite element method (FEM), and the mesh generation is combined with the material parameters identified by hyperspectral analysis (e.g., copper: k = 400 W / (m·K), ceramics: k = 1.5 W / (m·K)).
[0116] The purpose of step S31 is to establish a physical mapping model from the internal heat source to the surface temperature distribution.
[0117] S32, based on the heat conduction model, performs inversion solution based on deep learning.
[0118] The inverse problem is transformed into an optimization problem, with the loss function being: in, T is the value of the loss function. surface For the actual measured surface temperature distribution, T model Let ||Q|| be the surface temperature distribution calculated using the heat conduction model based on the currently estimated heat source Q. ||·||2 is the L2 norm, which measures the difference between the prediction and the measurement. ||Q||1 is the L1 norm of the heat source distribution, which promotes sparse solutions. λ is the regularization parameter, which balances the contributions of the two terms.
[0119] The problem of internal heat source inversion is formulated as an optimization problem, and the most likely heat source distribution is estimated by minimizing the loss function.
[0120] The solution is obtained using a Physical Information Neural Network (PINN): the input is surface temperature and hyperspectral material data, and the output is the heat source distribution Q(x,y,z).
[0121] The purpose of step S32 is to overcome the limitations of traditional methods that rely on internal structures and to locate the internal heat source of complex equipment.
[0122] S33 uses Monte Carlo Dropout to estimate the uncertainty of the inversion results and calculates the posterior probability distribution of the heat source location.
[0123] Monte Carlo Dropout (MC-Dropout) is used to estimate the uncertainty of the inversion results, and the posterior probability distribution of the heat source location is calculated: Wherein P(Q|T) surface Let θ be the posterior probability of the heat source distribution given a surface temperature, N be the number of Monte Carlo samplings, and θ be the posterior probability of the heat source distribution. n Let P(Q|T) be the network parameters at the nth sampling. surface ,θ n ) for using parameter θ n The probability of heat source distribution predicted in real time.
[0124] Assess the uncertainty of the inversion results, provide a confidence estimate of the heat source location, and avoid over-reliance on single prediction results.
[0125] The purpose of step S33 is to assess the reliability of the positioning results and avoid overconfidence.
[0126] Step S4: Perform intelligent diagnosis of overheating type to distinguish between normal heat generation and fault-related heat generation.
[0127] In this embodiment, step S4, performing intelligent diagnosis of overheating type and distinguishing between normal heat generation and fault-related heat generation, specifically includes the following steps:
[0128] S41, perform multi-feature joint analysis.
[0129] Extract the following discriminant features, such as thermal pattern features, spectral oxidation index, and temperature rise rate.
[0130] Thermal pattern characteristics refer to the shape of the hot zone (circular shapes are mostly normal, while irregular shapes are mostly faulty).
[0131] The spectral oxidation index refers to the ratio of the absorption depth of Fe2O3 at 650 nm to that of CuO at 550 nm. Among them, R ox A is the oxidation index. 650 The absorption depth at 650 nm (characteristic absorption peak of Fe2O3), A 550 This indicates the absorption depth at 550 nm (characteristic absorption peak of CuO).
[0132] The degree of oxidation of materials is quantified; a high degree of oxidation usually indicates poor contact or aging problems.
[0133] Temperature rise rate refers to the fact that fault-induced heat typically causes a faster temperature rise.
[0134] The purpose of step S41 is to construct interpretable fault discrimination indicators.
[0135] S42, train a multi-branch Transformer classifier to build a deep learning classification model.
[0136] Train a multi-branch Transformer classifier, with the input being the fused feature vector (output of step two) and the heat source inversion result (output of step three). The outputs are normal heating (Class 0), electrical fault (Class 1), and mechanical fault (Class 2). The loss function is weighted cross-entropy (to address class imbalance).
[0137] The purpose of step S42 is to achieve end-to-end overheating type diagnosis with an accuracy of ≥95%.
[0138] S43 employs a causal discovery algorithm to analyze the causal relationship between fever type and characteristics, constructs a causal graph model, and verifies causal reasoning.
[0139] Causal discovery algorithms (such as PC algorithm) are used to analyze the causal relationship between heating type and characteristics, and a causal graph model is constructed. For example, the causal chain of increased oxidation index → increased contact resistance → fault heating is verified.
[0140] The purpose of step S43 is to improve the reliability of the diagnostic results and meet the needs of operation and maintenance decision-making.
[0141] Step S5 generates a visual report and triggers tiered alerts to guide on-site operations and maintenance.
[0142] In this embodiment, step S5, generating a visual report and triggering tiered early warnings to guide on-site operations and maintenance, specifically includes the following steps:
[0143] S51, conduct a thermal risk level assessment.
[0144] Define the risk index R risk : Among them, R risk T represents the heat risk index. max T represents the highest temperature detected. amb T represents ambient temperature. limit Indicates the material's temperature resistance threshold. I represents the rate of temperature rise. ox The oxidation index is represented by w1, w2, and w3, which represent the weights of each indicator and are determined by the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) decision-making method. By comprehensively quantifying overheating risk using multiple indicators, a scientific, tiered early warning system can be achieved.
[0145] The purpose of step S51 is to quantify the risk of overheating and implement graded early warning (normal, attention, warning, danger).
[0146] S52 uses AR (Augmented Reality) visualization.
[0147] An AR system was developed using the Unity3D engine, overlaying overheated areas (rendered in red), internal heat sources (semi-transparent heat clouds), and diagnostic results onto a real-time video stream. SLAM technology was employed for device localization and registration.
[0148] The purpose of step S52 is to visually display the location and extent of overheating, assisting maintenance personnel in quickly locating the problem.
[0149] S53 performs adaptive early warning threshold adjustment.
[0150] Combining historical data with environmental factors (ambient temperature, humidity, load current), Bayesian optimization is used to dynamically adjust the early warning threshold: T threshold =f(T)amb ,I load ,humidity), where T threshold T represents the dynamically adjusted warning threshold. amb Indicates ambient temperature, I load Let represent the load current, humidity represent the ambient humidity, and f(·) represent the function relationship obtained through Bayesian optimization. The warning threshold is adaptively adjusted based on the actual operating environment to reduce the false alarm rate.
[0151] The purpose of step S53 is to reduce the false alarm rate and adapt to different operating conditions.
[0152] Step S6: Optimize computational efficiency and robustness through online learning and model updates.
[0153] In this embodiment, step S6, optimizing computational efficiency and robustness through online learning and model updates, specifically includes the following steps:
[0154] S61 enables edge-cloud collaborative computing deployment.
[0155] Edge computing (embedded GPU): Responsible for data acquisition, preprocessing, and real-time alerts (response time <1s).
