摘要
Considering the classification of uneven terrain for photovoltaic power stations during photovoltaic panel cleaning by mobile robots, a classification method based on W-MC-MS was then proposed to optimize the Bag-of-visual-word Model to classify the terrain images. First of all, the SIFT features are extracted from the actual terrain images of the photovoltaic power stations; then, the K-means clustering algorithm is adopted to calculate these features and generate the initial code dictionary of terrain images; afterwards the W-MC-MS criterion is adopted for optimization so as to reduce the size of codebook dictionary and improve the performance of visual terrain classification. The experiment considered the average classification accuracy and the cost of classification time regarding the terrain images as the evaluation standards, compared the classification performance of the codebook dictionary before and after optimization, and finally verified the validity of the optimization method in terrain classification. © 2022, Solar Energy Periodical Office Co., Ltd.
