Identification of Insulator Hydrophobicity Based on Image Processing and RBF Neural Network
To identify hydrophobic level of a composite insulator quickly and accurately
an identification method of insulator’s hydrophobic level is presented based on image processing and RBF neural network.First
histogram equalization enhancement and adaptive median filter are used to process image; Then the image is segmented by two-dimensional Otsu threshold; Finally
four features associated with hydrophobicity are extracted from the image to form the input vector
and the hydrophobic level are taken as the output vector
thus an optimal RBF neural network is constructed via training for identifying insulator’s hydrophobic level.Testing results show that the proposed method can accurately identify hydrophobic level of insulators with total recognition rate of 90% and satisfactory accuracy.This hydrophobic level identification method may be applied to on-line detection of insulator hydrophobicity.
