Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of image processing technology, and in particular to a method, apparatus, electronic device and storage medium for detecting the flow rate of filtrate in a filter press. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional machine vision monitoring solutions often employ fixed industrial cameras to capture images of the filter press drain pipe area. They then use conventional image processing algorithms such as fixed threshold segmentation, Canny edge detection, and contour matching to locate the drain pipe and extract the water flow area. The flow rate is then estimated by simply calculating the pixel area of ​​the water flow. This approach lacks specific optimization for the complex operating conditions of filter presses and suffers from several insurmountable technical shortcomings in actual operation. When faced with the tilting, interlacing, and overlapping pose changes of the drain pipes due to long-term equipment vibration and material impact, traditional algorithms lack spatial topological constraints and rely solely on external contour features. This fails to accurately distinguish between different drain pipes, frequently resulting in missed detections, false detections, incorrect numbering, and blurred boundaries, thus failing to provide a stable foundation for subsequent water flow matching.

[0003] For the identification of filtrate flow scenarios, filter press filtrate often exhibits characteristics such as being small, discontinuous, transparent, and having a color that converges with the equipment background. Furthermore, the outlets of densely packed drainage pipes are prone to merging, crossing, and splashing of water flows. Traditional segmentation algorithms rely on fixed grayscale thresholds and contour features, failing to distinguish transparent water flows from the background, and even unable to split merged water flows into instances. This results in incomplete water flow segmentation, excessive pseudo-contours, ineffective feature extraction, and even large-area missed segmentation. In the matching stage between water flow and drainage pipes, existing technologies only use spatial distance and vertical positional relationships for simple association, without introducing physical filtrate discharge logic and spatial constraints. In scenarios with intersecting pipes and merging water flows, mismatches, one-to-many, and many-to-one matching errors are highly likely. Simultaneously, they cannot effectively eliminate interference from invalid water flows such as splashes, residual water stains, and equipment dripping, making the reliability of the matching results completely unacceptable for industrial environments.

[0004] In the process of flow quantification and water flow color determination, existing technologies only estimate flow by statistically analyzing the pixel area of ​​the water flow, without combining multi-dimensional features such as the size of the drain pipe, the shape of the water flow, and the relative position of the pipe. As a result, the estimated flow values ​​have a large deviation and are not of practical reference value. Water flow color determination is based on simple RGB color threshold comparison, which is easily affected by factors such as changes in ambient light, equipment stains, and water reflection. It is impossible to accurately distinguish key states such as normal filtrate, filtrate containing impurities, and filtrate containing oil. Summary of the Invention

Detailed Implementation

[0018] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. The components of the embodiments of this application described and shown in the accompanying drawings can generally be arranged and designed in various different configurations.

[0019] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of this application provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed application, but merely to illustrate selected embodiments of the application. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0020] First, a brief introduction to the design concept of the embodiments of this application will be given.

[0021] Filter presses are core industrial equipment in solid-liquid separation processes in coal, chemical, metallurgical, and environmental protection industries. The real-time discharge status, flow rate, and color of the filtrate directly reflect the sealing effect of the filter plates, the permeability of the filter cloth, and the quality of material separation. These are crucial for achieving fully automated feeding, plate closing, and cake discharge closed-loop control of the filter press. Currently, monitoring of filter press filtrate flow rate and discharge status in industrial settings mainly relies on two methods: manual inspection and traditional machine vision monitoring. Neither of these techniques is suitable for complex industrial conditions and exhibits significant technical deficiencies and application limitations.

[0022] Manual inspection is currently the most common monitoring method. Maintenance personnel periodically visit the filter press site to visually observe the liquid discharge status of multiple drain pipes, subjectively estimating the water flow rate and color, and manually recording the working status of each drain pipe. This method relies entirely on subjective human judgment, resulting in extremely low monitoring efficiency and an inability to achieve 24 / 7 uninterrupted real-time monitoring. It is also highly susceptible to misjudgments and omissions due to factors such as personnel fatigue, viewing angle deviations, changes in lighting, and nighttime operations. Furthermore, filter press drain pipes are typically densely arranged and staggered, making it impossible for manual personnel to quickly and accurately match the water flow with the corresponding drain pipe. Simultaneous and quantifiable data collection and recording of liquid discharge from multiple drain pipes is also impossible. The monitoring data lacks continuity and traceability, failing to provide reliable data support for the automated intelligent control of the filter press.

[0023] Existing monitoring technologies cannot solve the core problems of difficulty in distinguishing inclined and intersecting drainage pipes, difficulty in separating irregular / merging water flows, difficulty in matching water flow with drainage pipes, and inaccurate judgment of flow rate and color, which seriously restricts the automation and intelligent upgrading of filter press equipment.

[0024] To address these technical challenges in industrial filter presses, such as inclined and intersecting drainage pipes, minute and discontinuous water flow, difficulty in decoupling merged water flows, misaligned flow pipes, and inaccurate flow color judgment, this application proposes a method for detecting the flow rate of filter press filtrate. This method uses real-time images of a designated monitoring area of ​​the filter press as input. Based on a dual-domain core constraint mechanism of the spatial topological feature field of the drainage pipes and the potential field of the water flow-drainage pipe matching association, it transforms the discrete location, shape, and neighborhood topological relationships of the drainage pipes, as well as the location, area, and flow direction characteristics of the water flow, into continuous, quantifiable, and computable domain features. Combined with a pre-trained deep learning detection and segmentation network, it sequentially completes precise drainage pipe detection, precise water flow segmentation, one-to-one precise flow pipe matching, liquid discharge status recording, flow rate quantification calculation, and water flow color judgment, achieving fully automated, high-precision, stable, and reliable real-time monitoring of the filter press filtrate flow rate.

[0025] The advantages of this application are: 1. A method for accurate identification of intersecting drainage pipes was designed. By providing strong spatial constraints through the spatial topological feature field of drainage pipes, it can accurately distinguish drainage pipes in inclined, intersecting and overlapping states. The false detection rate and false detection rate are significantly reduced, the detection results are stable and unique, and it has real-time pose adaptation capability.

[0026] 2. A complete segmentation method for complex water flows was constructed. The method adopts a multi-color space fusion and merging water flow decoupling algorithm, which can achieve complete segmentation of small, discontinuous, transparent and merged water flows. The segmentation results are free of missing parts and false contours, effectively solving the segmentation problem of water flow and background convergence.

[0027] 3. A misalignment-free and precise matching logic for the flow pipe was designed. Based on the physical constraint matching of the associated potential field, the water flow and the drain pipe are strictly bound one-to-one, solving the problems of misalignment, one-to-many, and many-to-one matching. Invalid water flow interference is automatically eliminated, and the matching result conforms to the physical liquid discharge logic.

[0028] 4. It achieves precise flow quantification, and the three-dimensional color judgment mechanism is not affected by ambient light or dirt. It can stably distinguish the state of various filtrates, and the monitoring data can directly support the automated control of the filter press.

[0029] 5. It has high adaptability to industrial sites, lightweight process flow, integrated device design, strong hardware resistance to harsh environments, low deployment cost, stable operation, and can be adapted to various types of filter presses, effectively promoting the intelligent upgrading of solid-liquid separation equipment.

[0030] After introducing the application scenarios and design concepts of the embodiments of this application, the technical solutions provided by the embodiments of this application will be described below.

[0031] like Figure 1 As shown in the figure, this application provides a method for detecting the flow rate of filtrate in a filter press. The filter press includes a drain pipe, with each drain pipe corresponding to a flow of filtrate. The method includes the following steps: S101 acquires an RGB image of the filtrate monitoring area of ​​the filter press under test; S102 uses the drainage pipe detection model to process the RGB image and obtain the detection results of each drainage pipe; the drainage pipe outlet is set as the attraction potential source, and the attraction potential source intensity of each drainage pipe outlet is calculated based on the detection results. S103 uses a water flow segmentation network to process the RGB image to obtain the water flow morphology features and segmentation results of each filtrate flow; the centroid of each filtrate flow is set as the attracted potential point, and the attracted potential point features of each filtrate flow are calculated based on the segmentation results. S104 calculates the associated potential field value of each drain pipe and the filtrate flow based on the strength of the attraction potential source and the characteristics of the attraction potential point of the filtrate flow; and determines the drain pipe matched with each filtrate flow based on the associated potential field value. S105 determines the input characteristics of each filtrate flow based on the segmentation results, water flow morphology characteristics, correlation potential field values, and detection results; S106 inputs the input features into the water flow estimation model to obtain the flow rate of the filtrate from the filter press to be tested.

[0032] The method in this embodiment can achieve fully automated, high-precision, stable and reliable real-time monitoring of the filtrate flow rate of the filter press.

[0033] S101 acquires an RGB image of the filtrate monitoring area of ​​the filter press to be tested.

[0034] An RGB image is a digital image that uses red, green, and blue light mixed in different proportions to generate patterns. Each of the three color channels (red, green, and blue) is divided into 256 levels of brightness. In this step, an RGB image of the filtrate monitoring area of ​​the filter press to be tested is acquired. This image serves as the input to the method of this application, providing a basis for subsequent processing and analysis.

[0035] S102 uses the drainage pipe detection model to process the RGB image and obtain the detection results of each drainage pipe; the drainage pipe outlet is set as the attraction potential source, and the attraction potential source intensity of each drainage pipe outlet is calculated based on the detection results.

[0036] In this step, the drain pipe detection model is a pre-trained YOLOv11 model. The detection results include the detection box and number for each drain pipe. The detection process is as follows: Figure 2 As shown.

[0037] In some embodiments, the intensity of the attraction potential source at each drain pipe outlet is calculated based on the detection results, including: The attraction potential source strength of the i-th drain pipe is calculated according to the following formula. :

[0038] in, The two-dimensional coordinates of the outlet of the i-th drain pipe are determined by the detection frame; Let be the weight of the i-th drainage pipe; The L2 norm is used; specifically, a standard two-dimensional Cartesian coordinate system is established with the physical plane of the filtrate monitoring area below the filter plate of the filter press as the reference. Using the lower left corner of the monitoring area as the origin of the coordinate system, the horizontal direction to the right is the positive x-axis, and the vertical direction upward is the positive y-axis. This ensures that each pixel in the image is precisely mapped to the physical coordinate system, guaranteeing the physical consistency of subsequent field calculations and position determination.

[0039] Let be the three-dimensional field value at the outlet of the i-th drain pipe, expressed as:

[0040] in, The i-th drain pipe is located at coordinates The field strength of the topological characteristic field at a location represents the field component at that spatial location.

[0041] in, This represents the normalized value of the actual tilt angle of the i-th drainage pipe, reflecting the characteristics of the pipe's pose change. This is the normalized value of the actual length of the i-th drainage pipe, reflecting the morphological characteristics of the water pipe. It is the normalized value of the center-Euclidean distance between the i-th and j-th drainage pipes, reflecting the neighborhood topological relationship; It is the weighting coefficient of the outlet position of the i-th drain pipe, with the outlet area being given a higher weight. Represents coordinate points The normalized value of the Euclidean distance to the center of the source of the i-th drainage pipe; is the spatial attenuation coefficient of the electric field strength, which decreases exponentially with increasing distance; , , and These are the weighting coefficients; the field strength distribution diagram of the topological characteristic field is as follows: Figure 3 As shown.

[0042] For the i-th drain pipe at coordinates The field strength of the morphological characteristic field at a certain location characterizes the morphological features of the drainage pipe, such as its inclination and length.

[0043] in, Is the i-th drain pipe at coordinates The similarity of the contour shape at each location is calculated using the Hausdorff distance index, which is used to characterize the thickness of the tube body and the features of the edge contour. Let be the topological correlation field strength of the neighborhood of the i-th drainage pipe, representing the interleaving and overlapping relationship between the drainage pipe and its adjacent water pipes:

[0044] Where M represents the number of adjacent water pipes in the neighborhood of the i-th drainage pipe. The normalized value of the center distance between the i-th and j-th drainage pipes. The percentage of overlapping areas between adjacent drainage pipes represents the degree of overlap.

[0045] In this embodiment, the three-dimensional field data can continuously characterize the correlation between any pixel in the image and each drainage pipe. The field value changes smoothly with the physical distance to the field source, which can accurately distinguish different drainage pipes in tilted, intersecting, and overlapping states, providing strong prior space constraints for the subsequent drainage pipe detection network.

[0046] This embodiment generates a real-time drainage pipe feature field for the current frame image. By analyzing the field overlap and gradient change rate of the feature field, it accurately identifies the boundary contours of intersecting drainage pipes, ensuring a high degree of match between the detection results and the field constraints. This fusion update mechanism can adapt in real time to minor positional shifts and vibration deformations of drainage pipes after long-term operation, enabling the detection process to have stable spatial self-adaptation capabilities and providing a unique, stable, and accurate basis for drainage pipe positioning in subsequent water flow matching processes.

[0047] S103 uses a water flow segmentation network to process the RGB image to obtain the water flow morphology features and segmentation results of each filtrate flow; the centroid of each filtrate flow is set as the attracted potential point, and the attracted potential point features of each filtrate flow are calculated based on the segmentation results.

[0048] In this step, the actual physical area of ​​the filtrate flow is represented by a flow segmentation network. The aspect ratio of the water flow profile and the perimeter of the water flow segmentation profile together constitute the water flow morphological characteristics.

[0049] In this step, the segmentation result for each filtrate flow includes: a binarized segmentation mask and a number for the filtrate flow. The flow segmentation network uses a Segformer network.

[0050] In some embodiments, the attraction potential point characteristics of each filtrate flow are calculated based on the segmentation results, including: The total number of pixels in the foreground region of the binarized segmentation mask of the j-th filtrate flow is counted to obtain the pixel area of ​​the j-th filtrate flow. The pixel area of ​​the j-th stream of filtrate is mapped to the actual physical area using the camera's physical calibration scale. ; The inter-frame optical flow method, Lucas-Kanade, was used to calculate the velocity vector of the j-th filtrate stream. ; right and Normalization is performed to obtain the normalized actual physical area. and normalized water flow velocity vector ; The attraction potential characteristic of the j-th stream of filtrate is calculated using the following formula. :

[0051] in, It is an L2 norm.

[0052] S104 calculates the associated potential field value of each drain pipe and the filtrate flow based on the strength of the attraction potential source and the characteristics of the attraction potential point of the filtrate flow; based on the associated potential field value, it determines the drain pipe matched to each filtrate flow.

[0053] In some embodiments, based on the strength of the attraction potential source and the characteristics of the attraction potential point of the filtrate flow, the associated potential field value of each drain pipe and the filtrate flow is calculated, including: The associated potential field value of the i-th drain pipe and the j-th filtrate flow is calculated according to the following formula. :

[0054] in, Let be the physical Euclidean distance between the outlet of the i-th drain pipe and the j-th stream of filtrate, determined by the position of the outlet of the i-th drain pipe. The centroid coordinates of the j-th filtrate flow Calculated; Let be the angle between the direction of liquid discharge from the i-th drain pipe and the direction of water flow from the j-th stream. All are weighting coefficients.

[0055] This embodiment sets a fixed potential field range for each attractive potential source, automatically eliminating invalid matching interference across regions and over long distances, ensuring that the matching results conform to physical logic; the distribution of the associated potential field values ​​is as follows: Figure 4 As shown.

[0056] In some embodiments, determining the drain pipe matched to each filtrate flow based on the associated potential field value of each drain pipe and the filtrate flow includes: The drain pipe corresponding to the maximum value of the associated potential field of the j-th filtrate flow and each drain pipe is determined as the drain pipe matched with the j-th filtrate flow.

[0057] This embodiment sets a fixed potential field range for each attractive potential source, automatically eliminating invalid matching interference across regions and over long distances, and ensuring that the matching results conform to physical logic.

[0058] In some embodiments, the method further includes: marking successfully matched drain pipes as liquid discharge states, marking unmatched drain pipes as liquid-free states, and automatically determining water flows without corresponding matched drain pipes as invalid water flows.

[0059] S105 determines the input characteristics of each filtrate flow based on the segmentation results, flow morphology characteristics, correlation potential field values, and detection results.

[0060] In some embodiments, the input characteristics of each filtrate flow are determined based on the segmentation results of each filtrate flow, the flow morphology characteristics, the detection results of the matched drain pipe, and the associated potential field value between each filtrate flow and the matched drain pipe; including: The actual physical area of ​​the j-th filtrate flow The water flow morphology features, composed of the aspect ratio of the water flow profile and the perimeter of the water flow segmentation profile, the detection frame size of the matched drain pipe, and the potential field value associated with the j-th filtrate flow and the matched drain pipe are dimensionally spliced ​​to obtain the input features of the j-th filtrate flow.

[0061] S106 inputs the input features into the water flow estimation model to obtain the flow rate of the filtrate from the filter press to be tested.

[0062] In this step, the flow estimation model consists of multiple sequentially connected fully connected layers.

[0063] In some embodiments, it also includes: The flow region is obtained by dividing the foreground region of the binarized segmentation mask based on the j-th filtrate flow; The K-means clustering algorithm is used to calculate the main color cluster center of the water flow region to determine the color of the j-th filtrate flow.
