Abstract

Photovoltaic (PV) power generation has been widely promoted due to the increased demand for clean energy in recent years, but the fires it generates are often prone to cause large negative impacts. Therefore, a machine vision-based fire recognition algorithm for PV panel fire-fighting UAVs is proposed in this research. The algorithm consists of image preprocessing, feature extraction and CNN-based recognition in three parts. Firstly, the image preprocessing stages are innovatively designed, including RGB operation, filtering operation and morphological processing. Then the feature extraction of the connectivity characteristics and the number of sharp corners of the suspected flame region after processing is carried out. Through a number of image preprocessing sessions and feature extraction sessions on the processed image information, the information of the ingested range with the dataset that combines the image information and feature information are represented. Finally, the data set of the photographed area is put into a well-trained neural network to determine. The improved CNN neural network makes the overall photovoltaic panel fire fighting UAV fire recognition algorithm reach 96.67% accuracy and more than 96.25% anti-jamming accuracy, which can complete the photovoltaic fire recognition task in an excellent way.
