Abstract

Bird’s nest is a common defect in transmission line, which seriously affects the safe and stable operation of the line. This paper presents a method of bird’s nest hazard level identification based on improved yolov5 and location constraints, which solves the problem of bird’s nest multiple identification and hazard level classification. We integrate GhostModule and ECA to design a lightweight attention mechanism convolution module (LAMCM). The original yolov5 is improved by using LAMCM and adding a prediction head, which improves the detection ability of small targets and alleviates the negative impact of scale violence. We only identify the bird’s nest on the panorama of UAV patrol, and classify the hazard level of the bird’s nest according to the location constraints of the bird’s nest and insulator. Experiments on coco dataset and self built transmission line dataset (TL) show that our algorithm is superior to other commonly used algorithms. In particular, the recall rate of bird’s nest hazard level identification has increased significantly. Compared with the original yolov5, the recall rate of the three levels of bird’s nest improved by our proposed improved yolov5 is more than 3%.
