Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of urban road detection technology, specifically relating to a method and system for enhancing the cavity area of ground penetrating radar images. Background Technology
[0002] During the long-term operation of urban road infrastructure, the problem of internal cavities caused by factors such as foundation settlement and aging underground pipelines has become increasingly prominent, gradually evolving into one of the key factors threatening road traffic safety. Traditional manual detection methods or borehole sampling techniques are limited by low efficiency, high cost, and difficulty in large-scale application. To solve these problems, non-contact detection methods, represented by ground-penetrating radar (GPR), have attracted much attention due to their excellent spatial resolution and efficient data acquisition capabilities. This technology achieves non-destructive assessment of the internal condition of a target structure by emitting electromagnetic waves and receiving their reflected signals in the medium. However, in practical applications, due to the influence of multiple factors such as differences in material properties, environmental noise interference, and the complexity of image processing, the two-dimensional or three-dimensional imaging results obtained by GPR are often accompanied by significant artifacts and uncertainties, thus posing a huge challenge to the location and accurate definition of cavities. Such abnormal areas often exhibit characteristic patterns such as uneven gray-scale distribution, smooth edge transitions, or sudden changes in intensity. These subtle changes are still difficult to effectively extract and analyze even with professional image analysis algorithms. Summary of the Invention

It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only for explaining the invention and are not intended to limit the invention; that is, the described specific embodiments are merely a part of the embodiments of the invention, and not all of them. The components of the specific embodiments of the invention described and shown in the accompanying drawings can generally be arranged and designed in various different configurations, and the invention may also have other embodiments.

All other specific embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on these specific embodiments without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this invention.
[0066] To further understand the invention's content, features, and effects, the following specific embodiments are provided, along with accompanying drawings. Figure 1 - Appendix Figure 3 Detailed explanation is as follows:
[0067] Example 1:
[0068] A method for enhancing void regions in ground-penetrating radar images includes the following steps:
[0069] S1. Ground-penetrating radar is used to collect raw images of the road interior, which are then standardized to obtain standardized images;
[0070] Furthermore, in step S1, ground-penetrating radar is used to acquire raw images of the road interior. The standardization process involves normalizing the grayscale of the original image of the road interior to obtain a grayscale image. Then, the image is normalized to zero mean and standard deviation to obtain a standardized image. .
[0071] S2. The standardized image obtained in step S1 is transformed into the frequency domain using Fourier transform. Then, spectral energy and energy gradient are defined to characterize the frequency change amplitude, and the frequency difference ratio is constructed.
[0072] Underground radar imaging data often exhibits significant abrupt changes in grayscale due to media discontinuities or void reflections. These abrupt changes typically correspond to high-frequency components in the frequency domain. To deeply analyze these image features, Fourier transform is needed to convert the original spatial domain signal into a frequency domain representation, revealing its inherent structural information. Within the frequency domain analysis framework, energy accumulation intervals and frequency evolution patterns can be intuitively identified, particularly local high-frequency disturbances caused by voids, whose spectra usually exhibit obvious peaks. Based on this, we propose using spectral energy and its gradient to characterize the amplitude of frequency changes. By constructing a frequency difference ratio and combining the gradient value with energy intensity for normalization, we eliminate regions with high energy but stable changes, thereby focusing on key regions with prominent dynamic characteristics and specific morphologies.
[0073] Furthermore, the specific implementation method of step S2 includes the following steps:
[0074] S2.1. The standardized image obtained in step S1 is transformed into the image frequency domain using Fourier transform, and the expression is:
[0075]
[0076] in, For the image frequency domain; , These are the indices in the x and y directions of the frequency domain, obtained from the frequency coordinates of the Fourier transform; The imaginary unit, For standardized images;
[0077] S2.2. Define the spectral energy and energy gradient using the image frequency domain, with the following expression:
[0078]
[0079]
[0080] in, For spectral energy; It is the energy gradient mode; The symbol is for partial differentials;
[0081] S2.3. Normalize the energy gradient magnitude and spectral energy to construct the frequency difference ratio, expressed as:
[0082]
[0083] in, This represents the frequency difference ratio.
[0084] S3. Establish a regularization control strategy based on the fusion of first and second derivatives to adjust the spectral energy and obtain regularized smooth energy;
[0085] Within the frequency domain analysis framework, ground-penetrating radar (GPR) data acquisition may be affected by environmental noise and discontinuities in boundary sampling, often resulting in numerous non-target-induced abrupt changes in spectral images. These spurious abrupt changes can easily mislead target recognition algorithms in subsequent processing stages, thus affecting the accuracy and reliability of the final results. To address this issue, a regularization control strategy based on the fusion of first and second derivatives is proposed, aiming to specifically suppress extreme fluctuations in the spectral energy distribution. By constructing this regularization factor and applying it to the spectral energy adjustment process, the focus and extraction accuracy of subsequent enhancement algorithms on key information are optimized.
[0086] Furthermore, step S3 involves constructing a local perturbation regularization factor to adjust the spectral energy and obtain the regularized smoothing energy, expressed as:
[0087]
[0088]
[0089] in, This is the local perturbation regularization factor; This is the regularization factor adjustment coefficient, determined by expert experience, and also used to adjust the dimensions; To obtain the first derivative with respect to the spectral energy; To obtain the second derivative with respect to the spectral energy; It is a regularization weighting factor, determined by expert experience, and is also used to adjust the dimensions; This represents the regularized smoothing energy.
[0090] S4. Given that the void reflection structure often exhibits a local high-frequency response in the frequency domain, a frequency gain function is constructed using the energy gradient obtained in step S2 and the regularized smooth energy obtained in step S3.
[0091] Given that void-reflective structures often exhibit local high-frequency responses in the frequency domain, a novel frequency enhancement response function was designed to optimize the characterization of potential high-frequency features. This function compares the frequency gradient difference with the local energy spectrum, normalizes the results, and uses an exponential function to adjust the amplification rate, combined with hyperparameter tuning to achieve fine-tuning of specific frequency bands. This method can significantly enhance the regional characteristics of small frequency jumps caused by voids accompanied by low background energy, thereby improving the model's accuracy and specificity in identifying target structures. To prevent extreme fluctuations in the enhancement effect, a hyperbolic tangent function is introduced to smooth the results, improving the stability of the overall frequency response characteristics and the uniformity of its gradient distribution.
[0092] Furthermore, the expression for the frequency gain function constructed in step S4 is as follows:
[0093]
[0094] in, For frequency gain; This is the maximum response scaling factor, determined by expert experience, and also used to adjust the dimensions; is the exponential control factor, determined by expert experience; tanh is the hyperbolic tangent function.
[0095] S5. Construct a phase perturbation angle model using the frequency difference ratio obtained in step S2, and then calculate the enhanced spectrum using the adjusted phase angle and the frequency gain function;
[0096] Besides spectral amplitude characteristics, phase information also contains important structural orientation and texture attributes. This is because the scattering of electromagnetic waves by the void region not only affects signal strength but also significantly interferes with the phase distribution. Therefore, by rationally designing a phase mapping strategy in the frequency domain, the image's ability to perceive spatial structural changes can be effectively improved. This step uses the differential calculation result of the frequency difference ratio along the vertical frequency axis to construct a perturbation angle model, quantifying the unbalanced characteristics and evolution of the target in different directions in the frequency domain. Through phase adjustment, energy distribution is optimized and controlled during frequency domain reconstruction, making the void edges more prominent and accurate in space.
[0097] Furthermore, the specific implementation method of step S5 includes the following steps:
[0098] S5.1. Construct a phase perturbation angle model using the differential calculation result of the frequency difference ratio along the vertical frequency axis obtained in step S2, with the expression as follows:
[0099]
[0100] in, This refers to the phase perturbation angle; This is the phase perturbation factor, determined by expert experience, and also used to adjust the dimensions;
[0101] S5.2. Calculate the adjusted phase angle using the following formula:
[0102]
[0103] in, The adjusted phase angle; for The phase angle;
[0104] The enhanced spectrum is calculated by combining frequency gain, and the calculation formula is as follows:
[0105]
[0106] in, To enhance the spectrum.
[0107] S6. The reconstructed image with enhanced spectrum and the spatial frequency fusion map are fused to obtain the final enhanced image;
[0108] While frequency domain enhancement helps improve image edges and textures, it can cause structural blurring or loss of detail in low-contrast areas or when heavily influenced by a background. To address this, we first use inverse Fourier transform to obtain the frequency-enhanced image, then add a perceptual enhancement term. This term focuses on areas of significant change based on the image's spatial gradient and local brightness information, taking into account the spatial distribution of the frequency domain gain map to improve the layering of hole areas in the final output. The combination of the two parts is adjusted using a weight, ensuring the edge sensitivity of frequency domain enhancement while incorporating local information from the spatial domain, which helps distinguish holed targets from the background.
[0109] Furthermore, the specific implementation method of step S6 includes the following steps:
[0110] S6.1. Obtain the reconstructed image by performing an inverse Fourier transform using the enhanced spectrum. The expression is:
[0111]
[0112] in, This is the inverse Fourier transform;
[0113] S6.2. Introducing a space-frequency dual control model, the space-frequency response is fused to obtain a space-frequency fusion diagram, the expression of which is:
[0114]
[0115] in, This is the inverse Fourier transform; This is a spatial-frequency fusion diagram; The standardized image adjustment index is determined by expert experience; The gain index is determined by expert experience; To standardize the local brightness standard deviation of an image, a sliding window method can be used for calculation;
[0116] S6.3. Perform weighted fusion of the reconstructed image and the spatial frequency fusion map to obtain the final enhanced image. The expression is:
[0117]
[0118] in, , These are the weighting coefficients for the reconstructed map and the weighting coefficients for the space-frequency fusion map, which are determined by expert experience and are also used to adjust the dimensions.
[0119] S7. The gradient intensity of the final enhanced image is used to construct a local anomaly factor for boundary calculation and hole mask generation.
[0120] To effectively detect holes, an anomaly factor representing the local saliency of the image was constructed using the structure gradient of the final enhanced image. Since holes in ground-penetrating radar images can produce large edge responses in the enhanced image, the gradient magnitude of the entire image was first calculated. Then, the average gradient and standard deviation of the neighborhood of each point were calculated using a sliding window method, thus measuring the contrast saliency between the current point and its background. The greater the contrast saliency, the more likely the edges around this point are an anomalous structures, potentially becoming candidate holes. A threshold was then used to determine if the anomaly factor was large enough. If the anomaly factor was large, its location was added to the mask image, resulting in a binary image representing the hole boundary. One advantage of this approach is that it enhances the edge contrast of the region of interest while statistically removing spurious structure responses.
[0121] Furthermore, the specific implementation method of step S7 includes the following steps:
[0122] S7.1. The local anomaly factor is constructed using the gradient intensity of the final enhanced image, expressed as:
[0123]

[0126] S7.2. Given a threshold, a hole mask is generated by judging local anomaly factors, expressed as:
[0127]
[0128] in, For the purpose of creating a cavity mask; The threshold for abnormal factors is determined by expert experience.
[0129] The method proposed in this embodiment yields a clearer structural image and uses a local anomaly factor to obtain a hole mask, thereby achieving better detection of holes and their boundaries in the road, improving the robustness and accuracy of the detection.
