[0058] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of this application.

These terms are only used to distinguish the first element from the second element. The terms "comprising" and "having," and any variations thereof, used in this application, are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion. The term "multiple" used in this application refers to two or more. The term "and / or" used in this application refers to one of the embodiments, or any combination of multiple embodiments.

[0060] The transmission line defect identification method provided in this application embodiment can be applied to, for example, Figure 1 In the application environment shown, terminal 102 communicates with server 104 via a network. A data storage system can store the data that server 104 needs to process. The data storage system can be integrated onto server 104, or it can be located in the cloud or on other network servers. Terminal 102 can be, but is not limited to, various personal computers, laptops, smartphones, tablets, drones, low-altitude aircraft, IoT devices, and portable wearable devices. IoT devices can include smart speakers, smart TVs, smart air conditioners, smart vehicle devices, projection devices, etc. Server 104 can be a standalone physical server, a server cluster or distributed system composed of multiple physical servers, or a cloud server providing cloud computing services.

[0061] In one exemplary embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, a method for identifying defects in transmission lines is provided, which can be applied to... Figure 1 Taking terminal 102 as an example, the explanation includes the following steps 202 to 210. Wherein:

[0062] Step 202: Obtain multi-source data of the transmission line, and perform format unification, data cleaning and data enhancement processing on the multi-source data to obtain processed multi-source data.

[0063] The multi-source data includes image data of transmission lines, real-time operation data, and historical defect data.

[0064] For example, image data, real-time operation data, and historical defect data of transmission lines are acquired, and the data are subjected to format unification, data cleaning, and data enhancement processing to obtain processed multi-source data.

[0065] In one embodiment, transmission lines in different geographical regions such as mountains, plains, coasts, with voltage levels of 110 kV, 220 kV, 500 kV, and under climate scenarios such as heavy rain, fog, high temperature, and low temperature can be selected as the acquisition areas. Image data is collected by a drone flying at a speed of 5 meters per second and collecting 1 image every 50 meters, a robot with an inspection frequency of once every 2 hours, and a handheld inspection instrument by an operator with a resolution of 4K.

[0066] Obtain real-time operation data from the transmission line monitoring system, for example, current, voltage, temperature; extract historical defect data including defect types, treatment plans, recurrence situations, etc. from the inspection reports and fault record databases of historical defect data.

[0067] In another embodiment, complex fault data with multiple defects superimposed, such as a bird's nest plus corrosion, and defect data under extreme weather conditions, such as defect data under heavy snow, can also be simulated and generated through MATLAB.

[0068] Step 204: Based on the environmental perception data in the processed real-time operation data, adjust the fuzzy neural network model, and input the processed image data into the adjusted fuzzy neural network model to obtain enhanced image data.

[0069] Among them, the fuzzy neural network includes an input layer, a hidden layer, and an output layer.

[0070] Optionally, construct a fuzzy neural network model, where the input layer receives the environmental perception data and the processed image data in the processed real-time operation data, enhances the image data through the hidden layer, and outputs the enhanced image data through the output layer.

[0071] Step 206: Extract the visual features in the enhanced image data and the semantic features in the processed historical defect data, and fuse the visual features and semantic features to obtain a fused feature vector.

[0072] Exemplarily, extract the visual features in the enhanced image data through the ResNet50 network. Input the enhanced image data into the network, perform max-pooling operations after convolutional processing, and output the visual features. The TF-IDF (Frequency-Inverse Document Frequency) algorithm is used to extract the semantic features in the processed historical defect data.

[0073] In one embodiment, perform Jieba word segmentation on the text in the processed historical defect data, remove stop words, such as "de", "zai", "he", etc., calculate the term frequency-inverse document frequency, and output the semantic features.

[0074] Among them, visual features include image information such as shape, color, and texture of image data; semantic features include information such as device model, historical faults, and environmental parameters.

[0075] Step 208: For each type of defect, based on preset rules and defect detection models, the fused feature vector is quantitatively evaluated to determine the hazard level of each type of defect.

[0076] Optionally, for each type of transmission line defect, the fused feature vector is quantitatively evaluated according to preset rules and defect detection models to determine the hazard level of each type of defect.

[0077] Step 210: Align the visual features with the semantic features, and generate the identification results of transmission line defects based on the hazard level and the fused feature vector.

[0078] For example, a Transformer-based cross-modal mapping model is constructed. On the image modality side, the coordinate information contained in the defect detection box and the pixel-level contour contained in the segmentation mask are converted into 1024-dimensional standardized visual features. The position of the detection box is processed by coordinate normalization, and the key shape features of the segmentation mask are extracted by contour sampling to eliminate the format differences of different representations within the same modality. On the language modality side, the BERT-Base model is used to convert long and short text descriptions, such as "There is a bird's nest on tower #35" or "There is a bird's nest with a volume of 0.8 cubic meters 2 meters away from the conductor on the left side of tower #35", and various types of tabular data, such as Excel tables containing defect type, hazard level, and location, into 1024-dimensional structured semantic features to unify the language information format.

[0079] By comparing and learning loss functions, the loss weights are set to minimize the distance between the visual and semantic features of the same defect in the feature space, and to maximize the distance between the feature vectors of different defects. Through iterative training, the batch size and learning rate are set, and the model learns the cross-modal mapping relationship in the power transmission defect scenario, eliminating the semantic gap and realizing a one-to-one correspondence between visual and semantic information.

[0080] Based on the aligned cross-modal information, a standardized natural language text is generated that includes the defect location line number, tower number, specific location, defect type (bird nest, external damage, corrosion), hazard level (mild, moderate, severe), key features such as bird nest volume, distance from external damage source, corrosion depth, and potential risks such as potential short circuits or equipment breakage. For example, a bird nest with a volume of 0.8 cubic meters is located 2 meters from the conductor on the left side of tower #35 of the 220kV Dianqian Line. The minimum distance from the conductor is 0.3 meters, and there are no protective measures. This is judged as a severe risk and may cause a short circuit fault. It is recommended to remove it within 24 hours.

[0081] In one embodiment, the transmission line defect identification method can also integrate the modules that implement the above method based on a microservice architecture.

[0082] The acquisition, enhancement, fusion, determination, and generation modules communicate via interfaces. The PyInstaller tool is used to encapsulate the model and its dependent libraries, including TensorFlow 2.8, PyTorch 1.12, OpenCV 4.5, configuration files containing model parameters, interface addresses, data format rules, and startup scripts, into independent binary files, hiding the internal implementation details. A unified HTTP input / output interface is provided externally: the input is JSON format data containing "image data, device number, inspection time, and environmental parameters", and the output is JSON format results containing structured text.

[0083] In another embodiment, hardware performance testing tools such as CPU-Z and GPU-Z are used to evaluate parameters of the target operating environment, such as the number of CPU cores, clock speed, memory capacity, GPU model, and video memory, to optimize the allocation of computing resources, for example, allocating 8 cores of computing resources to the CPU device and video memory to the GPU device; conditional compilation and the use of the LoadLibrary function are employed to ensure that the model runs stably on different operating systems (e.g., CentOS 7.9, Windows Server 2019); a virtual environment is created using Anaconda to isolate the model's dependent libraries from the system global environment, avoiding runtime errors caused by dependency library version conflicts; for dependent libraries that require specific versions of compilation, such as OpenCV_contrib, the source code is manually compiled and installed to ensure compatibility with the target hardware environment.

[0084] A data format conversion tool is used to achieve bidirectional data adaptation between the model and the existing inspection system. A data format mapping table is established; for example, the system output defect code 001 is mapped to the model input "Bird's Nest" defect, and the model output "severe risk" is mapped to the system-identified risk level 3. Based on the transmission protocol used by the existing system, the corresponding network programming library is selected: for example, for HTTP / HTTPS protocols, Python's requests library is used to send and receive data, handling HTTP request GET / POST methods and status codes such as 200 / 400 / 500. SSL / TLS encryption technology is used to encrypt data transmission; when using the HTTPS protocol, for example, a Symantec SSL certificate is configured to establish a secure encrypted channel. For sensitive data such as equipment parameters and defect locations, AES-256 encryption is used for encryption before transmission, and the receiving end uses the corresponding decryption algorithm to restore the data. An OAuth 2.0 authentication mechanism is implemented to ensure that only legally authorized inspection systems can interact with the model, preventing unauthorized access and data leakage.

[0085] In one embodiment, Docker is used to package the model into a container image. A Dockerfile is written to define the container image building process, such as selecting Ubuntu 20.04 as the base image, installing Python 3.8 and its dependent libraries, copying the model code and configuration files, and setting the startup command. The image is then built using the command and pushed to a private image repository of the power grid, such as Harbor.

[0086] Manage container clusters using Kubernetes: Deploy 3 container instances, set CPU resource limits to 8 cores, memory limits to 32GB, and GPU limits to 1; configure HPA auto-scaling strategy to automatically increase the number of container instances to achieve load balancing when CPU utilization exceeds 70% or concurrent requests exceed 100.

[0087] Establish a comprehensive operation and maintenance plan and emergency response plan: monitor the model's running status, such as CPU utilization, memory usage, and inference speed, and set alarm thresholds, for example, triggering an alarm when CPU utilization exceeds 90%; record model running logs through the ELK log collection system to facilitate troubleshooting; and formulate emergency response plans, such as automatic restart when a container crashes and retrying when data transmission is interrupted, to ensure the long-term stable operation of the model.

[0088] The aforementioned method for identifying transmission line defects involves acquiring multi-source data of the transmission line, and then performing format unification, data cleaning, and data augmentation on this data to obtain processed multi-source data. Based on environmental perception data from the processed real-time operational data, a fuzzy neural network model is adjusted, and the processed image data is input into the adjusted fuzzy neural network model to obtain enhanced image data. Visual features from the enhanced image data and semantic features from the processed historical defect data are extracted, and the visual and semantic features are fused to obtain a fused feature vector. For each type of defect, the fused feature vector is quantitatively evaluated based on preset rules and a defect detection model to determine the hazard level of each type of defect. The visual and semantic features are aligned, and based on the hazard level and the fused feature vector, the identification result of the transmission line defect is generated. Thus, through multi-source data integration and standardized preprocessing, the unification of different data formats is achieved, invalid data is effectively eliminated, and data diversity is improved, providing high-quality data support for subsequent stages and ensuring the reliability of the identification work from the source, resulting in more accurate final defect identification results.

[0089] In an exemplary embodiment, the multi-source data is subjected to format unification, data cleaning, and data augmentation to obtain processed multi-source data, including: converting the multi-source data into a preset format according to the data type to obtain the converted multi-source data; removing duplicate images from the image data in the converted multi-source data, deleting text data lacking key fields in the converted multi-source data, and removing outliers in the converted multi-source data to obtain the processed multi-source data.

[0090] In practical implementation, image data from multi-source data is converted into images at a preset resolution, text data from multi-source data is converted into a preset text format, such as TXT format, real-time running data is converted into CSV format, duplicate images are removed from the converted image data, such as similar scenes captured in succession, text data lacking key fields in the converted multi-source data is deleted, such as data without pole numbers or optional times, and erroneously labeled data is removed, such as data that labels foreign objects as bird nests, and outliers in the converted multi-source data are removed, such as instantaneous overvoltage and extreme temperature data.

[0091] In one embodiment, the processed multi-source data is labeled, and OpenCV is used to perform image enhancement, such as setting the rotation angle to -15° to 15°, the scaling ratio to 0.8 to 1.2, adding Gaussian noise and setting the standard deviation to 0.01. The NLTK toolkit is used to perform text enhancement, such as replacing rust with rust damage, sentence restructuring such as adjusting the word order of defect descriptions, and supplementing information such as the inspection environment temperature of 35°C and humidity of 60% on March 15, 2024, to expand the data volume and obtain the processed multi-source data.

[0092] In the above embodiments, by processing multi-source data and standardizing the data to be processed, subsequent processing becomes more convenient.

[0093] In an exemplary embodiment, the environmental perception data includes light intensity, terrain vibration frequency, and climate type. Based on the environmental perception data in the processed real-time operational data, the fuzzy neural network model is adjusted, including: adjusting the contrast enhancement parameter and brightness adjustment parameter in the fuzzy neural network model based on light intensity; adjusting the filter kernel size and iteration number of the fuzzy neural network model based on terrain vibration frequency; and adjusting the processing method of the fuzzy neural network model based on climate type.

[0094] In practical implementation, based on light intensity, the contrast enhancement and brightness adjustment parameters in the fuzzy neural network model are adjusted. For example, in low-light scenes with light intensity below 500 lux, the contrast enhancement coefficient is optimized from 1.2 to 1.8 and the brightness adjustment parameter is adjusted from 0.2 to 0.3. Based on terrain vibration frequency, the filter kernel size and iteration number of the fuzzy neural network model are adjusted. For example, when the vibration frequency is in the range of 8 to 12 Hz, the degree of motion blur in the image is automatically detected, and the adaptive filter kernel size is adjusted from 3×3 to 7×7, and the iteration number is increased from 10 to 15. Based on climate type, the processing method of the fuzzy neural network model is adjusted. For example, in foggy scenes with visibility below 800 meters, the multi-scale transformation scale factor is set to 1.5 and fused with the deep neural network to remove the fog effect and restore image details.

[0095] In the above embodiments, the blurring is corrected by adjusting the filter kernel size and iteration number of the fuzzy neural network model, and the image detail recognition is improved by adjusting the contrast enhancement parameters and brightness adjustment parameters in the fuzzy neural network model.

[0096] In an exemplary embodiment, visual features and semantic features are fused to obtain a fused feature vector, including: removing redundant dimensions from the visual features, retaining features in the visual features whose mutual information value with a preset defect type is greater than a first preset threshold, forming target visual features; performing dimensionality reduction processing on the semantic features, and selecting semantic features whose cumulative variance contribution rate is higher than a second preset threshold as target semantic features; and performing weighted summation based on the target visual features and target semantic features to obtain the fused feature vector.

[0097] In practice, the mutual information value between the dimensions of the visual features and the preset defect type is calculated. Valid features with mutual information values ​​greater than the first preset threshold are retained, and redundant dimensions are removed to form the target visual features. Principal component analysis is used to reduce the dimensionality of the semantic features, and principal components with cumulative variance contribution rates higher than the second preset threshold are selected to form the target visual features.

[0098] An attention mechanism fusion model is constructed. The target visual features and target semantic features are calculated by the Softmax function, and preset weights are assigned. The two are then weighted and summed to generate a fused feature vector.

[0099] In one embodiment, a classification and recognition algorithm is developed based on support vector machine. The regularization parameter is set to 0.01, the kernel function is RBF and the gamma value is set to 0.001. The training set is 40,000 images and the test set is 10,000 images. The mapping relationship between the fused feature vector and the defect type is optimized through 5-fold cross-validation to achieve fine-grained feature representation and provide accurate feature support for defect classification.

[0100] In the above embodiments, by removing redundant dimensions in visual features and reducing the dimensionality of semantic features, the subsequent computational cost is reduced while retaining important features.

[0101] In one exemplary embodiment, the preset defect types include bird nest defects, external damage defects, and metal equipment corrosion defects.

[0102] In practice, the preset defect types include bird nest defects, external damage defects, and metal equipment corrosion defects.

[0103] The preset defect type can also be other defect types, which can be set by the user according to actual needs. This application embodiment does not limit this.

[0104] In the above embodiments, by clearly defining the specific defect type, the subsequent identification results are more intuitive and the processing efficiency is more efficient.

[0105] In an exemplary embodiment, for each type of defect, the fused feature vector is quantitatively evaluated based on preset rules and a defect detection model to determine the hazard level of each type of defect. This includes: locating the bird's nest and determining a first quantitative evaluation result for the bird's nest defect based on rules regarding location, nest volume, spatial distance between the nest and the transmission line, whether it contains metallic foreign objects, and whether protective measures exist; reconstructing the three-dimensional positional relationship between the external damage source and the transmission line and determining a second quantitative evaluation result for the external damage defect based on rules regarding the type of external damage source, spatial distance, and direction of movement; acquiring image data, depth data, and microstructure data of metal equipment corrosion and determining a third quantitative evaluation result for the metal equipment corrosion defect based on the image data, depth data, and microstructure data; and mapping the first, second, and third quantitative evaluation results to preset hazard levels to obtain the hazard level of each type of defect.

[0106] In practice, bird nest defect cases are identified from historical defect data. The distribution location, volume, and spatial distance of the bird nests from the transmission lines are extracted. These are combined with preset rules, such as the minimum distance from the conductor, the proportion of short circuits caused by foreign objects, the proportion of metal foreign objects in the bird nest, and surrounding protective measures such as whether bird spikes are provided. These rules are encoded into constraints of a neural network. For example, when the minimum distance between the bird nest and the conductor is less than 0.5 meters, the risk coefficient increases by 0.4; when bird spikes are provided, the risk coefficient decreases by 0.2.

[0107] The YOLOv8 algorithm is used to detect bird nests in the image regions corresponding to the fused feature vectors, and a confidence threshold is set for the detection. Preset rules are used to quantify and score the potential threat of bird nest defects, with a score range of 0 to 10. Among them, 0 to 3 points is mild risk, 3 to 6 points is moderate risk, and 6 to 10 points is severe risk. The hazard level of bird nest defects is output.

[0108] In one embodiment, monocular image data of external damage sources are determined from historical defect data to determine the type of external damage source, spatial distance, and direction of movement, such as excavator, transport vehicle, crane, actual distance from the power transmission line, and direction of movement, such as moving towards or away from the line.

[0109] A monocular depth prediction model is constructed based on a convolutional neural network. The input is the image features corresponding to the fused feature vector. A customized loss function is used to fuse distance error loss (MAE) and category loss (cross-entropy), and the weights of the two are set to optimize the model's adaptability to the power transmission channel environment. By learning from a large amount of labeled data, the model reconstructs the three-dimensional spatial structure of the power transmission line and the relative positional relationship with external damage sources, achieving accurate positioning of external damage sources and controlling the positioning error within a preset range. This is combined with hazard level determination; for example, when a crane is 3 meters away from the line and moving towards the line, it is determined to be a severe risk.

[0110] In another embodiment, multimodal image data, laser scanning corrosion depth data, and acoustic detection microstructure data are determined from historical defect data, and features such as corrosion color (e.g., yellowish-brown, reddish-brown), corrosion area percentage, corrosion depth, and equipment type (e.g., wires, poles, fittings) are extracted.

[0111] A fusion model of deep convolutional neural networks and graph convolutional networks is adopted to process the multimodal information corresponding to the corrosion feature vectors. The deep convolutional neural network extracts the corrosion color and area features, while the graph convolutional network mines the correlation between corrosion depth and equipment type. For example, when the corrosion depth of the wire joint is greater than 0.2 mm, the risk level is increased by one level. The contribution of each dimension of information is optimized by an adaptive weight allocation mechanism, which sets the weights of color features, area features, depth features, and equipment type. It adapts to different humidity and temperature ranges to achieve the classification of the severity of corrosion defects in metal equipment into mild, moderate, and severe, and risk assessment.

[0112] In the above embodiments, photos taken by different shifts and under different lighting conditions on the same conductor would previously yield two levels of conclusions; the algorithm maps color, depth, and load current to specific levels, eliminating subjective bias of the human eye and achieving comparability across towers, lines, and provinces.

[0113] To illustrate the transmission line defect identification method in this application in detail, an embodiment is described below. For example, this application describes a transmission line defect identification method in a specific scenario.

[0114] First, image data, real-time operation data, and historical defect data of the transmission line are acquired, and the data is formatted, cleaned, and augmented to obtain processed multi-source data.

[0115] A fuzzy neural network model is constructed. The input layer receives environmental perception data and processed image data from the processed real-time running data. The image data is enhanced through the hidden layer, and the enhanced image data is output through the output layer.

[0116] Visual features are extracted from the enhanced image data using the ResNet50 network. The enhanced image data is input into the network, processed by convolution, and then subjected to max pooling to output visual features. The semantic features in the processed historical defect data are then extracted using the TF-IDF (Frequency-Inverse Document Frequency) algorithm.

[0117] For each type of transmission line defect, the fused feature vector is quantitatively evaluated according to preset rules and defect detection models to determine the hazard level of each type of defect.

[0118] A Transformer-based cross-modal mapping model is constructed. On the image modality side, the coordinate information of the defect detection box and the pixel-level contour of the segmentation mask are converted into 1024-dimensional standardized visual features. The position of the detection box is processed by coordinate normalization, and the key shape features of the segmentation mask are extracted by contour sampling to eliminate the format differences of different representations within the same modality. On the language modality side, the BERT-Base model is used to convert long and short text descriptions, such as "There is a bird's nest on tower #35" or "There is a bird's nest with a volume of 0.8 cubic meters 2 meters away from the left conductor of tower #35", and various types of tabular data, such as Excel tables containing defect type, hazard level, and location, into 1024-dimensional structured semantic features to unify the language information format.

[0119] By comparing and learning loss functions, the loss weights are set to minimize the distance between the visual and semantic features of the same defect in the feature space, and to maximize the distance between the feature vectors of different defects. Through iterative training, the batch size and learning rate are set, and the model learns the cross-modal mapping relationship in the power transmission defect scenario, eliminating the semantic gap and realizing a one-to-one correspondence between visual and semantic information.

[0120] Based on the aligned cross-modal information, a standardized natural language text is generated that includes the defect location line number, tower number, specific location, defect type (bird nest, external damage, corrosion), hazard level (mild, moderate, severe), key features such as bird nest volume, distance from external damage source, corrosion depth, and potential risks such as potential short circuits or equipment breakage. For example, a bird nest with a volume of 0.8 cubic meters is located 2 meters from the conductor on the left side of tower #35 of the 220kV Dianqian Line. The minimum distance from the conductor is 0.3 meters, and there are no protective measures. This is judged as a severe risk and may cause a short circuit fault. It is recommended to remove it within 24 hours.

Unless explicitly stated herein, there is no strict order restriction on the execution of these steps, and they can be executed in other orders.
