AI Technical Summary
Existing technologies suffer from low accuracy, low efficiency, and susceptibility to subjective factors in the extraction of discontinuous features in unstable rock masses. Traditional centerline transformation methods are difficult to calculate the true centerline point in complex scenarios, resulting in inaccurate edge line extraction.
An improved median transformation method is used in combination with mean clustering, region growing algorithm and alpha-shape algorithm. By calculating the median sphere, curvature and normal of point cloud data, discontinuous edge lines are automatically extracted, including point cloud clustering, region growing and boundary point fusion.
It significantly improves the accuracy and robustness of discontinuous trace extraction, realizes full-process automation from point cloud data to discontinuous edge points of dangerous rock masses, reduces reliance on expert experience, and improves the objectivity and repeatability of results.
