Abstract

The frequency domain information of ore multi-scale image is difficult to distinguish boundary and texture details of ore objects, and hard to apply to particle size detection. Particle size classification model based on Bi-dimensional empirical mode decomposition (BEMD) is proposed, which is applied to particle detection of multi-size scenarios. Different size fraction ore images’ local frequencies are extracted by BEMD reflecting the edge and texture features. The instantaneous frequencies of each high-frequency images are statistic with image multivariate multiscale entropy, and the entropy ranges can be mapped into the particle size distribution. Three different size fraction images are used to verify the accuracy of the proposed method. The experimental results show that the validity and accuracy of our proposed model is better than other methods in multi-scenario ore particle size detection.
