The primary objective of the project titled "Hydrophobicity Classification of Composite Insulators Based on Image Enhancement and Deep Learning" is to develop an advanced and automated system for assessing the hydrophobicity status of composite insulators used in electrical power transmission and distribution networks.
Accurately judging the hydrophobicity classes (HCs) of the composite insulator helps to grasp the antipollution flashover performance of the insulator and prevent accidents in time. Aiming at the problem of low HC recognition accuracy of hydrophobic images and interference of operators' subjectivity in the feature extraction process, an intelligent HC recognition model of composite insulators based on the Contrast Limited Adaptive Histogram Equalization (CLAHE) image enhancement method and ResNet deep learning network is proposed in this paper. Firstly, composite insulators under varying HCs were simulated by spraying ethanol solutions with different volume fractions, and a series of hydrophobic images under experimental conditions was obtained. To improve the generalization ability of the model on photographic factors (photographing distance, light intensity, insulator color), images were preprocessed with gray processing, cropping, enhancement, and so on.
