[0029] 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. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0030] 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.
[0031] In one embodiment, as shown in Figure 1, a method for temperature early warning of power plant cabinet equipment is provided. This embodiment illustrates the application of this method to a terminal. It is understood that this method can also be applied to a server, or to a system including both a terminal and a server, and is implemented through interaction between the terminal and the server. The terminal can be, but is not limited to, various personal computers, laptops, smartphones, and tablets. The server 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. In this embodiment, the method includes the following steps:
[0032] Operate S101 to acquire dual-light images of the power station cabinet equipment to be analyzed, according to the acquisition parameters corresponding to this acquisition.
[0033] The dual-light image includes an infrared thermal imaging image and a visible light image.
[0034] Among them, the acquisition parameters refer to the camera parameters set by the terminal during the acquisition process, including the temperature range and emissivity of the infrared camera and the exposure time and white balance parameters of the visible light camera. These parameters are adjusted and configured according to the operating environment and monitoring needs of the power station cabinet equipment.
[0035] For example, the terminal simultaneously activates an infrared thermal imaging camera and a visible light camera via its built-in dual-light camera module, imaging the target device according to pre-defined acquisition parameters. The terminal adjusts the acquisition parameters based on the device's real-time operating status; for instance, it dynamically adjusts the emissivity of the infrared thermal imaging camera based on the highest temperature range of the device's surface to ensure accurate temperature measurement. Simultaneously, the terminal adjusts the exposure time and white balance parameters of the visible light camera in real-time based on ambient lighting conditions to obtain a clear visible light image. Finally, the terminal completes the synchronous acquisition of the dual-light images and transmits them to the subsequent processing module.
[0036] Operation S102 performs preprocessing, feature extraction, spatial registration, and information fusion on the dual-light image to generate a fused image.
[0037] Preprocessing involves performing operations such as noise removal, contrast enhancement, and brightness adjustment on the acquired dual-light images to improve image quality and provide clear and stable input data for subsequent analysis. Feature extraction extracts key local and regional features from the images, including texture, shape, and edge information. These features help accurately identify various components of the device and potential problem areas. Spatial registration aligns the infrared thermal imaging image and the visible light image, ensuring precise matching of their temperature and structural information to avoid image discrepancies. Information fusion combines the registered images, integrating the temperature data from the infrared image with the structural information from the visible light image to generate a final fused image, providing a precise data foundation for subsequent temperature analysis and hotspot detection.
[0038] For example, the terminal first preprocesses the acquired dual-light images, using Gaussian filtering or median filtering to remove noise and histogram equalization to enhance image contrast. Next, image processing algorithms, such as Scale-Invariant Feature Transform (SIFT) or Speeded-Up Robust Features (SURF), are used to extract important feature points and region descriptors from the preprocessed images. These feature points and regions will serve as the basis for subsequent registration and matching. In the spatial registration stage, the terminal uses feature point matching algorithms, such as Random Sample Consensus (RANSAC), to accurately align the infrared thermal imaging image and the visible light image, ensuring accurate spatial correspondence. Finally, the terminal merges the registered images using a weighted fusion technique, generating a fused image that utilizes temperature information from the infrared image and structural information from the visible light image. This fused image has higher temperature detection accuracy and structural detail.
[0039] Operation S103 performs temperature field reconstruction and hotspot detection processing on the fused image to obtain temperature field distribution information and hotspot region information.
[0040] Temperature field reconstruction refers to reconstructing the temperature field of a device surface based on temperature data from a fused image, using interpolation algorithms and heat conduction models. The goal of temperature field reconstruction is to expand discrete temperature data points into a complete temperature distribution map, providing information on temperature change trends in different areas of the device surface. Hotspot detection identifies areas with abnormal temperatures—those exceeding a preset safe temperature range—by setting temperature thresholds or employing regional statistical analysis. Hotspot area information includes the spatial location, area, and temperature value of the hotspot; this information is crucial for equipment maintenance and fault early warning.
[0041] For example, the terminal smooths the temperature data points in the fused image by interpolating the temperature information (such as bilinear interpolation or kriging interpolation) to generate a continuous temperature field distribution map. Furthermore, the terminal utilizes temperature gradient analysis and local statistical analysis to identify areas of excessive temperature within the device, i.e., hotspot areas, by setting temperature thresholds or using standard deviation-based anomaly detection methods (such as the Z-score method). Through these algorithms, the terminal can accurately identify and mark potential fault areas within the device, providing crucial data for subsequent early warning systems.
[0042] Operate S104 to perform temperature analysis on the power station cabinet equipment based on temperature field distribution information and hot spot area information, and obtain temperature warning information for the power station cabinet equipment.
[0043] Temperature analysis refers to assessing the overall temperature status of power plant cabinet equipment based on temperature field distribution and hotspot area information. By analyzing the temperature values of various areas on the equipment surface and the expansion trend of hotspots, it is possible to accurately determine whether there are potential temperature anomalies or malfunctions in the equipment. Temperature early warning information is generated based on the analysis results, including the severity of the current temperature anomaly, the location of the abnormal area, the temperature value, and the predicted temperature change trend, providing maintenance personnel with timely and accurate early warning data.
[0044] For example, the terminal first performs global and local analysis of the temperature field distribution information to assess the overall temperature status of the equipment and determine whether overheating exists on the equipment surface. Combining hotspot area information, the terminal identifies localized overheated areas and calculates whether their temperatures exceed preset safety thresholds (such as the equipment's maximum safe temperature). Furthermore, based on the equipment temperature change trend (by comparing currently collected temperature data with historical data) and the expansion of hotspot areas, the terminal predicts whether the equipment temperature may continue to rise or whether a malfunction may occur, and generates a temperature warning message. This warning message includes the temperature anomaly level (e.g., mild, moderate, severe anomaly), the spatial location and temperature data of the anomaly area, and provides operational suggestions (e.g., whether shutdown, cooling, or maintenance is required).
[0045] In the aforementioned temperature early warning method for power plant cabinet equipment, firstly, according to the acquisition parameters corresponding to this acquisition, dual-light images of the power plant cabinet equipment to be analyzed are acquired. These dual-light images include infrared thermal imaging images and visible light images. By combining the information from these two images, a comprehensive perception of the equipment status is achieved. The infrared image provides the temperature distribution on the equipment surface, helping to detect temperature anomalies, while the visible light image provides information on the equipment's appearance, structure, and details, aiding in fault location. This overcomes the limited monitoring range of a single sensor, ensuring full coverage monitoring of the equipment status. Furthermore, dynamically adjusting the acquisition parameters optimizes resource utilization, ensuring efficient acquisition in critical areas. Next, the dual-light images undergo preprocessing, feature extraction, spatial registration, and information fusion to generate a fused image. Preprocessing the acquired dual-light images improves image quality, reduces noise, and enhances contrast. Feature extraction obtains multi-scale local and regional features, ensuring the complete preservation of key information in the image. Spatial registration technology is used to further refine the infrared thermal imaging. Precise alignment of external and visible light images ensures data consistency. Information fusion is then used to synthesize the two images, generating a fused image that enhances the reliability and accuracy of the image data, laying a solid foundation for subsequent temperature field reconstruction and hotspot detection. Next, temperature field reconstruction and hotspot detection processing are performed on the fused image to obtain temperature field distribution and hotspot area information, improving the system's ability to detect temperature anomalies, especially the ability to identify potential risks such as localized overheating, providing crucial support for temperature early warning. Finally, based on the temperature field distribution and hotspot area information, temperature analysis is performed on the power plant cabinet equipment to obtain temperature early warning information. By analyzing the overall temperature field distribution and the characteristics of hotspot areas (such as temperature value, location, and size), the system accurately assesses the temperature anomaly level of the equipment and generates temperature early warning information. This warning information includes potential abnormal areas and corresponding temperature states, helping maintenance personnel to take timely measures and effectively reduce the risk of equipment failure. In the above method, spatial registration technology between infrared thermal imaging images and visible light images is used to achieve precise alignment of temperature data and equipment structural information; high-quality fused images are generated through image preprocessing and information fusion, providing a reliable foundation for temperature field reconstruction; hotspot detection accurately locates high-temperature areas and quickly identifies potential anomalies through threshold judgment and region segmentation; finally, based on temperature distribution and hotspot information, the temperature anomaly level is accurately assessed and early warning information is generated, realizing comprehensive monitoring and accurate early warning of equipment temperature status.
[0046] In an exemplary embodiment, before collecting the dual - light images of the power station panel equipment to be analyzed according to the acquisition parameters corresponding to the current acquisition in the above - mentioned operation S101, it further includes: in the case where the current acquisition is the first acquisition, taking the acquisition parameters corresponding to the lowest - level temperature anomaly level as the acquisition parameters for the current acquisition; in the case where the current acquisition is not the first acquisition, taking the acquisition parameters corresponding to the temperature anomaly level determined in the previous acquisition as the acquisition parameters for the current acquisition.
[0047] Among them, the temperature anomaly level is an index classified according to the severity of the equipment temperature state. The acquisition parameters include the setting parameters of the infrared camera and the visible - light camera, such as the temperature range, emissivity, exposure time, white balance, etc. of the infrared image. The setting of these parameters directly affects the quality of the collected images and the accuracy of the temperature data.
[0048] Exemplarily, the terminal first determines whether the current acquisition is the first acquisition. If it is the first acquisition, the temperature anomaly level is set to the lowest level (i.e., the "normal" or slightly abnormal level), and the corresponding acquisition parameters are set according to this level, such as a lower temperature range of the infrared thermal imaging camera and standard exposure settings, to ensure that the acquisition parameters are not overly sensitive. For subsequent acquisitions, the terminal will adjust the parameters of the current acquisition according to the temperature anomaly level determined in the previous acquisition. If the previous acquisition result shows that the temperature anomaly is moderate or severe, the terminal will adjust the acquisition parameters, such as increasing the temperature range, increasing the exposure time, etc., in order to capture more detailed temperature information, so as to provide higher - precision data support for subsequent temperature analysis and anomaly detection.
[0049] In one embodiment, the temperature anomaly level can be simply judged by the highest temperature, that is, if the highest temperature reaches the temperature range of a certain temperature anomaly level, it is that temperature anomaly level. When the temperature T < T1, within the normal temperature range, the reference frequency f0 is adopted; when T1 ≤ T < T2, slightly abnormal, 2 times the reference frequency is adopted; when T2 ≤ T < T3, moderately abnormal, 4 times the reference frequency is adopted; when T ≥ T3, severely abnormal, 8 times the reference frequency is adopted; where T1, T2, and T3 are preset temperature thresholds; for example, setting T1 = 45°C, T2 = 65°C, T3 = 85°C, and f0 = 5 min / time, the acquisition frequency is adjusted as follows: in the normal state, f = f0 = 5 minutes / time; slightly abnormal, f = 2f0 = 2.5 minutes / time; moderately abnormal, f = 4f0 = 1.25 minutes / time; severely abnormal, f = 8f0 = 0.625 minutes / time.
[0050] The parameter adjustment of the dual - light camera also determines the specific parameter values according to the real - time feedback. Among them, the adjustable parameters of the infrared camera include the temperature measurement range and emissivity; the adjustable parameters of the visible - light camera include the exposure time and ISO sensitivity.
[0051] Furthermore, the images can be 3 to 5 sets of dual-light images, each set of data including an infrared thermal image, a visible light image, and an acquisition timestamp.
[0052] In this embodiment, by dynamically adjusting the acquisition parameters, the acquisition process can be intelligently optimized according to the real-time temperature status and anomaly level of the device, ensuring the accuracy and reliability of temperature data, avoiding excessive data acquisition when the device temperature is normal, reducing unnecessary resource waste, and improving data sensitivity and detection accuracy when the device temperature is abnormal.
[0053] In an exemplary embodiment, as shown in FIG2, the above operation S102 performs preprocessing, feature extraction, spatial registration, and information fusion processing on the two-light image to generate a fused image. This can also be achieved through the following operations:
[0054] Operation S201 preprocesses the dual-light image to obtain the preprocessed dual-light image.
[0055] Operation S202 extracts multi-scale local features and regional features from the preprocessed dual-light image to construct feature description information.
[0056] Operation S203 involves registering the preprocessed dual-light image based on the feature description information to obtain the affine transformation matrix of the infrared thermal imaging image relative to the visible light image.
[0057] Operation S204 performs a fusion process on the preprocessed dual-light image based on the affine transformation matrix to generate a fused image.
[0058] The preprocessing includes at least quality assessment, image enhancement, and region segmentation.
[0059] Dual-light image preprocessing refers to performing necessary image processing on the acquired infrared thermal imaging image and visible light image to improve image quality and remove potential noise. Quality assessment is the process of evaluating image quality to ensure that the temperature information in the image is clear and reliable, often using metrics such as signal-to-noise ratio and contrast ratio. Image enhancement includes contrast enhancement, brightness adjustment, and edge sharpening, aiming to highlight important information in the image and improve feature extraction. Region segmentation methods (such as superpixel segmentation and edge-based segmentation algorithms) divide the image into multiple regions, facilitating independent analysis of the temperature characteristics of different regions during subsequent processing.
[0060] For example, the terminal performs quality assessment on the acquired dual-light images, using algorithms such as peak signal-to-noise ratio and structural similarity to evaluate image quality, and removes noise from the images through Gaussian filtering or median filtering. Next, histogram equalization is used to enhance image contrast, making temperature information more prominent, and superpixel segmentation is used to divide the image into regions, thereby extracting device regions with different functions.
[0061] During the feature extraction stage, the terminal extracts multi-scale local and regional features from the preprocessed image. Commonly used feature extraction methods include SIFT and SURF, as well as regional features such as local binary patterns. This feature description information is used for subsequent image registration and fusion processing.
[0062] In the spatial registration process, the terminal uses feature point matching algorithms (such as SIFT or SURF) to match the infrared thermal imaging image and the visible light image, calculating the affine transformation matrix between them. The matching results are then optimized by applying the RANSAC algorithm, resulting in an accurate registration.
[0063] Finally, the terminal performs information fusion processing on the infrared thermal imaging image and the visible light image based on the calculated affine transformation matrix. Information fusion methods include weighted averaging and pixel-level fusion, ensuring that the final fused image can simultaneously retain temperature data (infrared image) and structural data (visible light image), providing high-quality data support for subsequent temperature field reconstruction and hotspot detection.
[0064] In one embodiment, the following operation can be performed.
[0065] ① Calculate the quality score of the two-light image: Q(I)=w1·SNR(I)+w2·E(I)+w3·C(I).
[0066] Where SNR(I) is the signal-to-noise ratio, E(I) is the edge sharpness, C(I) is the contrast ratio, and w1, w2, and w3 are weighting coefficients, with w1 + w2 + w3 = 1. For example, w1 = 0.4, w2 = 0.3, and w3 = 0.3. The SNR is calculated using a signal-to-noise separation method based on Gaussian filtering. Edge sharpness is based on image gradient magnitude statistics. Contrast ratio is calculated using the Michelson contrast ratio of local regions.
[0067] Determine whether the quality score Q(I) of the two-light image is less than the threshold Q. thre If yes, then image enhancement processing is performed followed by region segmentation; otherwise, region segmentation is performed directly. For example, Q thre It can be set to 0.6.
[0068] ② Perform region segmentation on the dual-light image, extract the outline of the cabinet equipment based on the level set method; use a multi-scale superpixel segmentation algorithm to divide the image into several sub-regions; combine prior knowledge to identify key functional regions, and construct a region importance weight map W(x,y)=γ1·W temp (x,y)+γ2·W str (x,y), where W temp W represents the importance weight of temperature. str Let γ1 and γ2 be the structural importance weights, and γ1 and γ2 be the weight coefficients, with a sum of 1. Based on the structural design and operating principles of the power plant equipment, determine which areas are crucial to the reliability and stability of the equipment, such as power modules, control panels, and heat dissipation areas. These areas are critical to the normal operation of the equipment and therefore have higher weights. The energy function design for the level set method is as follows: Among them, E reg For the regularization term, E area For the region term, E edge For marginal terms, μ, ν, and λ are weighting coefficients.
[0069] A physical constraint model was established based on the structural characteristics of the power plant cabinet equipment, including the relative positional relationships of equipment components and the spatial distribution patterns of key functional areas. The positional relationships of various components in the image provided spatial constraints for temperature field reconstruction. By modeling the positions of these components, the temperature distribution can be optimized and adjusted according to the known equipment structure. For example, the power module is located at the bottom of the equipment or near the heat dissipation area, while the control board and sensors are located at the top or middle of the equipment.
[0070] ③ The enhancement process for visible light images includes histogram equalization and contrast enhancement; the enhancement process for infrared thermal imaging images includes temperature normalization and noise reduction.
[0071] Histogram equalization includes: setting a contrast limit threshold α = 3.0; histograms exceeding the threshold are cropped and redistributed; the image is divided into 8×8 sub-blocks, and histogram equalization is performed on each sub-block; bilinear interpolation is used to merge the boundaries between blocks. Contrast enhancement includes: employing piecewise linear transformation, grayscale mapping: g(x) = α·f(x) + β, where α is the contrast gain, ranging from [1.2 to 1.8], and β is the brightness adjustment parameter, ranging from [-30, 30], which is adaptively adjusted according to the image statistical characteristics. Temperature normalization is: In(x, y) = (I(x, y) - T min ) / (T max -T min ), T min T represents the minimum temperature value in the current image. max This represents the maximum temperature value in the current image. A median filter is used for noise reduction.
[0072] ④ Extract multi-scale local features from dual-light images, including: extracting SIFT feature points and their 128-dimensional descriptors from visible light images; extracting SURF feature points and their 64-dimensional descriptors from infrared images; and extracting Harris corner features from both dual-light images.
[0073] Extracting regional features from dual-light images includes: extracting shape descriptors based on the HOG operator; extracting temperature distribution pattern features from infrared images, including temperature gradient direction histograms and hotspot distribution features; extracting texture features based on the LBP operator; for example, the hotspot distribution features are segmented using a threshold and connected component marking is performed, and a spatial distribution description is formed through centroid calculation, including a hotspot density map, hotspot distance statistics, and shape features.
[0074] Constructing a context-aware feature descriptor D: D = [D local D context D prior ].
[0075] Among them, D local For local feature description, SIFT / SURF descriptors and Harris corner features are fused; D context This provides neighborhood structure information, including HOG shape descriptors, temperature distribution pattern features, and LBP texture features, used to describe the structural characteristics of the region surrounding the feature point; D prior These are constraints based on prior knowledge, including regional importance weights and physical constraint information.
[0076] Feature descriptor D achieves an organic combination of multi-scale and multi-modal features by fusing local feature descriptions (SIFT / SURF and Harris features), contextual structure information (HOG shape descriptor, temperature distribution features, and LBP texture features), and constraints based on prior knowledge (regional importance weights and physical constraint information). This not only ensures the accuracy of feature matching but also makes full use of regional structure information and domain expertise, thereby improving the accuracy and reliability of image registration and anomaly detection for power plant cabinet equipment.
[0077] In this embodiment, by preprocessing, feature extraction, spatial registration, and information fusion of the dual-light images, image data optimization and precise alignment can be achieved, eliminating errors and noise that may occur during image acquisition. By effectively fusing temperature data from infrared images with structural information from visible light images, the resulting fused image provides accurate and comprehensive data support for subsequent temperature field reconstruction and hotspot detection, significantly improving the precision and accuracy of temperature monitoring. Ultimately, this enhances the real-time temperature monitoring capability of power plant cabinet equipment, especially demonstrating high reliability in identifying localized temperature anomalies and potential fault areas.
[0078] In an exemplary embodiment, the above operation S203, which performs registration processing on the preprocessed dual-light image based on feature description information to obtain the affine transformation matrix of the infrared thermal imaging image relative to the visible light image, further includes: selecting initial registration points from feature points corresponding to the feature description information based on the region segmentation result of the dual-light image; obtaining the region segmentation result through region segmentation; selecting candidate registration points from the initial registration points based on the feature description information; using a random sampling consistency model to eliminate erroneous registration points among the candidate registration points to obtain the target registration point; and calculating and determining the affine transformation matrix based on the target registration point.
[0079] For example, the terminal first segments the infrared thermal imaging image and the visible light image into different regions by region segmentation of the dual-light image. Within these regions, key feature points (such as corner points and edge points) are extracted, and initial registration points are selected based on the feature descriptors of each region. These initial registration points serve as the starting point for registration, and a feature matching algorithm further filters out candidate registration points with high matching degrees. Then, the terminal uses the RANSAC algorithm for optimization, eliminating erroneous matching points. RANSAC calculates a preliminary affine transformation matrix by randomly selecting a subset from the candidate points, and filters the optimal registration point by verifying the applicability of this transformation matrix to other points. Finally, the target registration point is selected, and the accurate affine transformation matrix is calculated. The affine transformation matrix contains transformation parameters such as translation, rotation, and scaling, enabling accurate alignment of the infrared thermal imaging image onto the visible light image. Through this matrix, the terminal can accurately align the infrared thermal imaging image and the visible light image, ensuring that subsequent image analysis is based on consistent spatial coordinates, thus providing a reliable data foundation for temperature field reconstruction and hotspot detection.
[0080] In one embodiment, a visible light image can provide clear edge and structural information, so it is selected as the reference image for registration, and an infrared thermal image is selected as the image to be registered.
[0081] ① Coarse matching based on region segmentation results: The matching region is divided using the region feature map G(V, E), where the vertex set V represents the segmented region and the edge set E represents the spatial adjacency relationship between regions. For example, in region connectivity analysis, the common edge determination is used, i.e., whether two regions share boundary pixels, and an adjacency matrix is constructed based on the common edge determination; the priority search region is determined according to the region importance weight W(x, y); within the priority search region, the nearest neighbor search of the feature descriptor D is performed using a kd-tree to obtain the initial matching pair set M1; during the nearest neighbor search, k can take the value 2, i.e., take 2 nearest neighbors, the feature dimension of the kd-tree is the dimension of D, and it is split according to the dimension with the largest variance, the leaf node capacity is a maximum of 10 feature points, and during the search, the distance ratio threshold is set to 0.8, and the search radius is limited to 100 pixels.
[0082] ② Perform fine-grained matching based on spatial constraints: calculate the Euclidean distance of feature descriptors as a similarity measure; construct the spatial constraint SC: SC(p i ,p j )=a1d(p i ,p j )+a2·|θ(p i ,p j )|.
[0083] Where, p i ,p j Let d(p) represent two feature point matching pairs to be evaluated. Each matching pair contains a feature point in the reference image and a feature point in the image to be registered. i ,p j θ(p) represents the distance between pairs of feature points. i ,p j ) represents the angle between the line connecting the feature point pairs and the horizontal direction, where a1 and a2 are weighting coefficients; d(p i ,p j ) is the distance normalization, i.e., d(p) i ,p j )=d(p i ,p j ) / d max ;|θ(p i ,p j ) is angle normalization, i.e., |θ(p) i ,p j )|=θ(p i ,p j ) / θ max d max θ max These are the maximum distance threshold and the maximum angle threshold, respectively.
[0084] The initial set of matching pairs M1 is selected based on spatial constraints SC, and the optimized set of matching pairs M2 is obtained; for example, the SC threshold is set to 0.8, that is, matching pairs with SC less than 0.8 are retained.
[0085] ③ Estimate the affine transformation matrix H using the RANSAC algorithm, and define the confidence evaluation function as follows:
[0086] Score(p i ,p j )=ω1·S f (p i ,p j )+ω2S g (p i ,p j )+ω3·S p (pi ,p j )
[0087] Among them, S f S is the cosine similarity of the feature descriptor D; g For point pairs (p i ,p j The degree of agreement of S with respect to the affine transformation matrix H; p The prior constraints are based on the weights of regional importance; ω1, ω2, and ω3 are weight coefficients and ω1+ω2+ω3=1.
[0088] For example, the affine transformation matrix estimation process is as follows: (1) Random sampling: select 3 pairs of matching points each time; (2) Calculate the affine matrix: 6 degrees of freedom; (3) Inner point statistics: calculate the projection error.
[0089] The final matching pair set M3 is obtained by filtering based on the Score threshold. The affine transformation matrix is then calculated using the final matching pair set M3 to complete image registration. For example, the Score threshold can be set to 0.7, meaning that matching pairs with a Score > 0.7 are retained as the final matching pair set M3.
[0090] ④ Then, the parameters of the affine transformation matrix can be solved using the least squares method. After that, the pixels of the infrared thermal imaging image are transformed to the pixel coordinate system of the visible light image according to the affine transformation matrix, thus completing the image registration.
[0091] For example, there are n pairs of matching points (x i y i ) and (x i ′,y i (Each pair of matching points contains the coordinates of the visible light image and the coordinates of the infrared thermal image). For each pair of matching points, the following two equations can be obtained:
[0092] ax i +by i +c=x′ i dx i +ey i +f=y′ i
[0093] Where a, b, c, d, e, and f are the affine transformation parameters to be determined.
[0094] Rearrange these equations into matrix form: A·θ=B.
[0095] Since the system of equations may be overdetermined (i.e., 2N > 6), the least squares method is needed to solve for the parameter vector θ. The formula for the least squares solution is: θ = (A T A) -1 AT B. T is the matrix transpose.
[0096] Alternatively, it can be solved using methods such as QR decomposition (orthogonal triangular decomposition) and singular value decomposition (SVD).
[0097] By employing a priority search mechanism guided by the regional feature map G(V,E) and a fine matching process based on spatial constraints SC, combined with regional importance weights W(x,y) and equipment physical characteristic constraints, multiple constraints and optimizations are achieved in the registration process. In conjunction with the screening mechanism of the confidence evaluation function Score, both registration accuracy and computational complexity are guaranteed. This approach is particularly suitable for scenarios with specific structural characteristics, such as power plant cabinet equipment, and exhibits strong robustness and practicality.
[0098] In this embodiment, high-precision image registration is achieved by combining region segmentation, feature description information filtering, and the RANSAC optimization algorithm. Through the selection of initial registration points, candidate registration points, and RANSAC algorithm optimization, accurate alignment of the infrared thermal imaging image and the visible light image is ensured, eliminating registration errors caused by different image shooting angles or other factors. The resulting affine transformation matrix provides a precise spatial coordinate basis for subsequent temperature field reconstruction and hotspot detection, thereby significantly improving the accuracy and reliability of temperature monitoring.
[0099] In an exemplary embodiment, the above operation S204, which fuses the preprocessed dual-light image according to the affine transformation matrix to generate a fused image, further includes: obtaining a registered infrared thermal imaging image based on the affine transformation matrix and the infrared thermal imaging image; obtaining an edge map of the visible light image and a temperature gradient map of the registered infrared thermal imaging image; determining the fusion weight of the dual-light image based on the edge map and the temperature gradient map; and fusing the registered infrared thermal imaging image and the visible light image according to the fusion weight to obtain the fused image.
[0100] For example, the terminal first aligns the infrared thermal imaging image using an affine transformation matrix, precisely registering it to the spatial coordinate system of the visible light image. Then, edge detection is applied to the visible light image to extract edge information. The edge map, generated from edge information extracted from the visible light image, highlights obvious structural boundaries and contours on the device surface. Edge information plays a crucial role in the fusion process, determining which regions require high weight. Temperature gradients are then calculated on the infrared image to generate a temperature gradient map. Next, the terminal calculates the weight of each image region using a weighted fusion algorithm. Hotspot and edge regions are assigned higher weights, indicating higher structural importance for edge regions and greater temperature gradients indicating temperature anomalies, ensuring that key information from these regions is fully represented in the final fused image. Finally, based on these fusion weights, the terminal fuses the infrared thermal imaging image with the visible light image to generate a high-quality fused image. Common fusion methods include weighted averaging, which adjusts the contribution ratio of the infrared and visible light images according to the importance (weight) of the regions, ensuring that the final fused image simultaneously retains structural information (from the visible light image) and temperature information (from the infrared image). For example, temperature information in hotspot areas may rely more on infrared images, while edge areas may rely more on visible light images. This image combines temperature and structural information, providing a precise data foundation for subsequent temperature field reconstruction and hotspot detection.
[0101] In one embodiment, the registered infrared thermal imaging image IR and visible light image VIS are normalized to unify the image value range to the [0, 1] interval, thereby unifying the numerical range of the two images and eliminating dimensional differences.
[0102] Calculate the Sobel edge map Ed(x, y) of a visible light image. Sobel operator calculation:
[0103] Horizontal gradient:
[0104] Vertical gradient:
[0105] Edge strength: Edge maps reflect structural information and contour features in visible light images.
[0106] Extract the temperature gradient map Tg(x, y) from the infrared thermal imaging image, including the horizontal temperature gradient: Vertical temperature gradient: Temperature gradient magnitude: Temperature gradient maps reflect the degree of temperature change in infrared images.
[0107] Generate adaptive weights Z(x,y) = μ1·Ed(x,y) + μ2·Tg(x,y), where μ1 and μ2 are adjustment coefficients and μ1 + μ2 = 1; when setting, μ1 < μ2 can be set so that the high edge response region tends to retain visible light information and the high temperature gradient region tends to retain infrared information.
[0108] Image fusion generation: F(x,y)=Z(x,y)·IR(x,y)+(1-Z(x,y))·VIS(x,y).
[0109] Where F(x, y) is the fused image, IR(x, y) is the normalized infrared thermal image, and VIS(x, y) is the normalized visible light image. Using this fusion formula, more visible light details are preserved in areas with significant edges, and more infrared information is preserved in areas with large temperature gradients, achieving adaptive fusion of structural and temperature information.
[0110] The dual-light image fusion algorithm introduces adaptive weights Z(x,y) to organically combine the Sobel edge map Ed(x,y) and the temperature gradient map Tg(x,y), achieving complementary advantages between the structural details of visible light images and the temperature information of infrared images. Through adjustable weight coefficients μ1 and μ2, the system can flexibly adjust the fusion ratio of structural and temperature information according to actual application requirements, ensuring both the visual quality of the fused image and the accurate transmission of temperature information.
[0111] In this embodiment, through precise registration of the affine transformation matrix and weighted fusion based on the edge map and temperature gradient map, a precise fused image can be generated. This image not only retains the temperature distribution information of the power plant cabinet equipment but also accurately presents the structural details of the equipment surface. The weighted fusion method ensures that information from hotspot areas, edge areas, and other critical areas is preferentially preserved, improving the overall information content and accuracy of the image. This provides a reliable foundation for subsequent temperature field reconstruction, hotspot detection, and temperature early warning, significantly improving the accuracy of equipment monitoring and fault prediction.
[0112] In an exemplary embodiment, the above operation S103 performs temperature field reconstruction processing and hotspot detection processing on the fused image to obtain temperature field distribution information and hotspot region information. It further includes: obtaining initial temperature field distribution information based on the registered infrared thermal imaging image; obtaining temperature field distribution information based on the initial temperature field distribution information, temperature gradient map, fused image, preset reference temperature, and preset power station cabinet equipment region importance weights; determining hotspot regions based on the temperature field distribution information and the region segmentation results of the dual-light image using a threshold judgment method to obtain hotspot region information; and obtaining the region segmentation results through region segmentation processing.
[0113] For example, the terminal first obtains preliminary temperature field distribution information from the registered infrared thermal imaging image, which shows the temperature changes in various areas of the device surface. The infrared thermal imaging image provides temperature information for each area of the device surface. After preprocessing and registration, a preliminary temperature field distribution map is obtained, presenting a rough distribution of the device surface temperature. Then, combining the temperature gradient map and the fused image, an optimized temperature field distribution map is obtained through weighted calculation based on a preset reference temperature and regional importance weights. Considering the different functional areas of the device and the importance of each area, key areas (such as power supplies and control boards) are given higher weights to ensure they receive more attention in the temperature field analysis. The preset reference temperature provides a standard reference temperature value for the device, used to compare with the actual temperature of the device surface and identify areas with abnormal temperatures. Based on the temperature field distribution and the segmentation of device areas, the terminal uses a threshold judgment method to identify areas with excessively high temperatures (i.e., hot spots) and outputs hot spot information including the hot spot location, temperature value, and size.
[0114] In one embodiment, ① temperature field reconstruction is performed based on the fused image F(x,y), and the reconstruction function is: T(x,y) = T base +K(x,y)·F(x,y)·W(x,y)+div(T g (x,y)).
[0115] Where T(x, y) is the reconstructed temperature field distribution function, representing the actual temperature value at point (x, y) in the plane coordinate system of the cabinet equipment; T base The baseline temperature value can be set to the ambient temperature; F(x, y) represents the fused image; W(x, y) represents the region importance weight; T g (x, y) represents the temperature gradient plot; div represents the divergence operator; K(x, y) is the correction coefficient, K(x, y) = K0· ( 1+β1·G(x,y))·(1+β2·L(x,y)), where K0 is the baseline correction coefficient obtained from camera calibration, G(x,y) is the normalized temperature gradient magnitude, L(x,y) is the local temperature uniformity, and β1 and β2 are weighting coefficients.
[0116] Furthermore, the divergence operator acts on the temperature gradient map T g (x, y), the calculation formula is: Where T g (x) and T g (y) represents the temperature gradient components in the x and y directions, respectively. This operator is used to describe the spatial diffusion characteristics of the temperature field and reflects the degree of heat accumulation or dispersion.
[0117] Calculation of the normalized temperature gradient magnitude G(x, y): First, calculate the partial derivatives of the temperature in the x and y directions: Calculate the gradient magnitude: Normalization: G(x,y)=G'(x,y) / max(G'(x,y)), where G(x,y) represents the degree of temperature change, and the larger the value, the faster the temperature changes.
[0118] Calculation of local temperature uniformity L(x, y): Calculate the local standard deviation within the local neighborhood N(x, y) of point (x, y): Where μ is the local mean; local uniformity: L(x,y)=1-σ(x,y) / max(σ); L(x,y) describes the smoothness of the temperature distribution, and the larger the value, the more uniform the temperature distribution.
[0119] The reconstruction function achieves the mapping transformation from image grayscale values to actual temperature values by combining reference temperature, fused image information, regional weights, and temperature gradient characteristics, while also taking into account the spatial distribution characteristics of the temperature field.
[0120] ② Based on T(x, y), calculate local statistical features, use the threshold method to determine hotspot areas, extract the feature parameters of hotspot areas, including the highest temperature, area and shape features, establish a hotspot tracking table, and record the location and temperature changes.
[0121] The criteria for determining hotspot regions are: H(x,y)={(x,y)|T(x,y)>min(μ+κσ(N(x,y)),T thre )}.
[0122] Where H(x, y) represents the hotspot region; N(x, y) represents the local neighborhood; μ is the local mean; σ is the local standard deviation; κ is the detection coefficient; T thre This is the preset temperature threshold.
[0123] Furthermore, when determining the local neighborhood, with point (x, y) as the center, combined with the above-mentioned region segmentation results and considering the physical structural characteristics of the device, N(x, y) = {(i, j) | (i, j) belong to the same superpixel region and |ix|≤r and |jy|≤r}, where r is the search radius, for example, a value of 5-7 pixels. The same superpixel region refers to the result of the above multi-scale superpixel segmentation, requiring (i, j) and (x, y) to be in the same functional region. During calculation, the superpixel region where point (x, y) is located is determined, and a window of (2r+1)×(2r+1) is taken within this region. The mean temperature μ and standard deviation σ within this window are calculated, and it is determined whether T(x, y) exceeds the threshold.
[0124] In this embodiment, by combining temperature field reconstruction, temperature gradient mapping, region segmentation, and hotspot detection methods, accurate monitoring of the temperature status of power plant cabinet equipment can be achieved. The temperature field distribution information has been optimized through comprehensive analysis of multiple factors, particularly focusing on critical and high-temperature areas, significantly improving the ability to identify temperature anomalies. The hotspot detection method, based on threshold judgment, can quickly locate high-temperature areas within the equipment and provide timely early warning information, effectively preventing equipment failures or catastrophic events.
[0125] In an exemplary embodiment, the above-described operation S104, which analyzes the temperature of the power station cabinet equipment based on temperature field distribution information and hotspot area information to obtain temperature warning information for the power station cabinet equipment, further includes: acquiring historical temperature field distribution information and historical hotspot area information corresponding to historical data collection; determining temperature magnitude change trend prediction information and hotspot area expansion trend information based on historical temperature field distribution information, historical hotspot area information, temperature field distribution information, and hotspot area information; determining the temperature anomaly level of the current data collection based on the temperature magnitude change trend prediction information, hotspot area expansion trend information, and temperature field distribution information; and generating temperature warning information for the power station cabinet equipment based on the temperature anomaly level of the current data collection, the temperature magnitude change trend prediction information, the hotspot area expansion trend information, and the temperature field distribution information.
[0126] For example, the terminal acquires historical data on historical temperature field distribution and historical hotspot areas, and combines this with current temperature field distribution information to analyze temperature change trends and hotspot expansion trends. Temperature magnitude change trend prediction information, based on a comparison of historical temperature data and the current temperature field distribution, predicts whether the temperature will rise or fall in the future. Hotspot expansion trend information, by comparing the current temperature of hotspot areas with the historical trends of hotspot areas, predicts whether the hotspot areas will further expand. Then, based on this data, the terminal calculates the temperature anomaly level and generates corresponding warning information.
[0127] For example, if the current temperature trend shows an upward movement and the hotspot area continues to expand, the terminal may issue a "severe anomaly" warning and recommend further cooling or equipment inspection measures. The temperature anomaly level is comprehensively assessed based on the currently collected temperature field distribution and historical temperature field distribution data, combined with predicted temperature change trends and hotspot area expansion trends. By analyzing the rate of temperature change and the expansion of hotspot areas, the current temperature anomaly level can be accurately determined, such as: normal, mild anomaly, moderate anomaly, severe anomaly, etc. Finally, based on the determined temperature anomaly level, temperature change trend, hotspot area expansion trend, and temperature field distribution information, a temperature warning message is generated. The temperature warning message will clearly indicate the degree of anomaly in the current equipment temperature and provide targeted warning response suggestions, such as whether shutdown, cooling, or other maintenance measures are required.
[0128] In one embodiment, the temperature field T(x, y) output by the temperature monitoring module and the hotspot detection results are processed in a time series to establish a monitoring data sequence {T(x, y, t)}. The data is then spatially weighted using a regional importance weight W(x, y) to generate a regional temperature feature vector, including the highest temperature, average temperature, temperature standard deviation, and hotspot area. Then, a sliding time window method is used to calculate the temperature change rate and acceleration, and exponential smoothing is used to predict the temperature trend, establishing a trend evaluation index: R(t) = ξ1·(ΔT / Δt) + ξ2·(Δt / Δt) 2 T / Δt 2 )+ξ3·P(t).
[0129] Where ΔT / Δt represents the rate of change of temperature with time, Δ 2 T / Δt 2 Let P(t) represent the rate of change of temperature, P(t) be the temperature prediction error, and ξ1, ξ2, and ξ3 be weighting coefficients, with ξ1 + ξ2 + ξ3 = 1.
[0130] Furthermore, ΔT / Δt=(T(t)-T(t-1)) / Δt, Δ 2 T / Δt 2 = ( ΔT / Δt(t) - ΔT / Δt(t-1)) / Δt, the temperature prediction deviation P(t) is the temperature trend predicted using exponential smoothing, P(t) = |T pre (t)-T act (t)|,T pre (t) is the exponentially smoothed predicted value based on historical data, T act (t) represents the actual measured value.
[0131] Next, based on multi-level temperature thresholds and trend evaluation metrics, an anomaly discrimination model is constructed. The discrimination criteria include the degree of temperature overrun, the duration of overrun, the change trend, and the spatial distribution characteristics, and the temperature anomaly level is output. The degree of temperature overrun is the comparison between the actual temperature and the preset thresholds T1, T2, and T3. The duration of overrun is the duration of the abnormal state. The change trend is the numerical value and change direction of the trend evaluation metric R(t). The spatial distribution characteristics include the shape characteristics and expansion trend of the hot spot area. The anomaly recognition unit not only considers the static temperature threshold judgment but also incorporates the dynamic trend analysis results. Through the comprehensive evaluation of these characteristics, the accurate recognition and level classification of the abnormal state of the equipment are achieved, providing a reliable basis for early warning decision-making.
[0132] Generate early warning information based on the anomaly recognition results, including the temperature anomaly level, the location of the abnormal area, the highest temperature value, and the temperature change trend, and push the early warning information to the system management module.
[0133] For example, the temperature anomaly level is the same as the level corresponding to the acquisition control unit in the image acquisition module, and the specific settings are: normal: T < T1; mild anomaly: T1 ≤ T < T2; moderate anomaly: T2 ≤ T < T3; severe anomaly: T ≥ T3.
[0134] Generate an early warning report based on the anomaly recognition results, including key information such as the temperature anomaly level (normal, mild anomaly, moderate anomaly, severe anomaly), the precise position coordinates of the abnormal area, the current highest temperature value, and the temperature change trend based on the trend evaluation metric R(t).
[0135] In this embodiment, by combining historical data and real-time temperature data, the temperature change trend of the power station cabinet equipment and the expansion of the hot spot area can be accurately predicted, significantly improving the accuracy of temperature anomaly detection and early warning. Generate the temperature anomaly level based on the temperature field distribution information, historical data, and trend prediction, and generate the temperature early warning information in a timely manner, helping the operation and maintenance personnel quickly identify the potential failure risks of the equipment and take corresponding measures. It not only improves the early warning ability of equipment failures but also effectively avoids equipment damage and accidents caused by temperature anomalies.
[0136] In an exemplary embodiment, as shown in Figure 3, the present application provides a temperature early warning system for power station cabinet equipment, which includes:
[0137] An image acquisition module 301 for real-time acquisition of the dual-light images of the cabinet equipment, that is, infrared thermal imaging images and visible light images;

[0146] The system management module 305, as the control center of the entire early warning system, is responsible for implementing the storage management of monitoring data, recording and tracking abnormal events, and timely pushing early warning information. At the same time, it provides a human-computer interaction interface. This module receives the real-time feedback from the intelligent analysis module 304 and automatically adjusts the acquisition frequency of the acquisition control unit according to the temperature anomaly level (T<T1 is the normal temperature range, T1≤T<T2 is a mild anomaly, T2≤T<T3 is a moderate anomaly, T≥T3 is a severe anomaly), corresponding to the reference frequency f0, 2 times the reference frequency, 4 times the reference frequency, and 8 times the reference frequency respectively), and accordingly adjusts the parameter configuration of the dual-light camera. In addition, this module also provides a remote access control function, enabling operation and maintenance personnel to view the device status, adjust system parameters, and respond to abnormal early warnings at any time, realizing the intelligent management and control of the entire early warning system.

[0149] Based on the same inventive concept, this application also provides a power plant cabinet equipment temperature warning device for implementing the above-mentioned power plant cabinet equipment temperature warning method. The solution provided by this device is similar to the solution described in the above method. Therefore, the specific limitations of one or more power plant cabinet equipment temperature warning device embodiments provided below can be found in the limitations of the power plant cabinet equipment temperature warning method above, and will not be repeated here.
[0150] In an exemplary embodiment, as shown in FIG4, a temperature early warning device for power plant cabinet equipment is provided, including: an image acquisition module 401, an image fusion module 402, a temperature detection module 403, and a temperature analysis module 404, wherein:
