Description
Summary:Power inspection is currently carried out mainly by drones. The weeds around the power equipment may cause potential safety hazards when the patrol images acquired by drones are used for patrol inspection, it is therefore necessary to recognize the weeds in the image. In this paper, a method for intelligent recognition of weeds is proposed for power patrol inspection based on optical patrol images. Based on the feature of weeds in the optical images, and combined with the convolutional neural network method, the problem of weed recognition near the power equipment in optical patrol images is solved. By amplifying and preprocessing the sample data of the optical patrol images, and introducing the region proposal network, the image features of the fixed number of candidate frames are extracted from the images. Then the network is connected to the improved image classification network to obtain a final convolutional neural network model. The experiments show that the accuracy rate can reach 97.98%, and the average time taken for detecting a 600×600 image is around 0.256 seconds, which meets the requirements of efficient recognition while ensuring accuracy.
