Image Characteristic Extraction of Ice-Covered Outdoor Insulator for Monitoring Icing Degree
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Serious ice accretion will cause structural problems and ice flashover accidents, which result in outdoor insulator string operating problems in winter conditions. Previous investigations have revealed that the thicker and longer insulators are covered with ice, the icing degree becomes worse and icing accident probability increases. Therefore, an image processing method was proposed to extract the characteristics of the icicle length and Rg (ratio of the air gap length to the insulator length) of ice-covered insulators for monitoring the operation of iced outdoor insulator strings. The tests were conducted at the artificial climate room of CIGELE Laboratories recommended by IEEE Standard 1783/2009. The surface phenomena of the insulator during the ice accretion process were recorded by using a high-speed video camera. In the view of the ice in the background of the picture of fuzzy features and high image noise, a direct equalization algorithm is used to enhance the grayscale iced image contrast. The median filtering method is conducted for reducing image noise and sharpening the image edge. The maximum entropy threshold segmentation algorithm is put forward to extract the insulators and its surface ice from the background. Then, the modified Canny operator edge detection algorithm is selected to trace the boundaries of objects through the extraction of information about attributes of the endpoints of edges. After we obtained the improved Canny edge detection image for both of the ice-covered insulators and non-iced insulators, the icing thickness can be obtained by calculating the difference between the edge of the non-iced insulators image and the edge of the iced insulator image. Besides, in order to identify the icing degree of the insulators more accurately, this paper determines the location of icicles by using the region growth method. After that, the icicle length and Rg can be obtained to monitor the icing degree of the insulator. It will be helpful to improve the ability to judge the accident risk of insulators in power systems.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
