摘要
Infrared images have been widely used in fault detection of insulators. However, it is difficult to deal with large volumes of images collected by Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) just using the traditional manual diagnosis way. Consequently, we proposed a novel method to automatically recognize and detect insulators in infrared images collected by UAV. First, the image edges are extracted from infrared image using Laplace operator, then, a histogram of edge density along the lines crossing the image is constructed, periodic textual features are extracted, and the insulators are finally recognized by a two-step clustering method. Infrared images with different backgrounds (plant, farmland, tower) are selected as the test data, and the recognition rate by our method is over 85%. Experiments show that our method can automatically recognize insulators from the UAV infrared images with a complex background, and can be further applied for intelligent infrared diagnosis using UAV. © 2019, High Voltage Engineering Editorial Department of CEPRI.
