The catenary support device inspection is of crucial importance for ensuring safety and reliability of railway systems. At present, visual detection tasks of catenary support devices defect are performed by trained personnel based on the images taken periodically by industrial cameras installed on inspection vehicle in a limited period of time at midnight. However, the inspection mean is inappropriate for low efficiency and high cost. This paper presents a novel network based on unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) images for catenary support device inspection and focuses on small object detection and the imbalanced dataset. With regards to the first aspect, based on a pyramid network structure, the improved Faster R-CNN consists of a top-down-top feature pyramid fusion structure, which heavily fuses high-level semantic information and low-level detail information. The feature map fusions of three different pooling scales are employed for improving detection accuracy of predicted bounding boxes. With regards to the second, we copy and paste the small proportion objects of dataset for avoiding category imbalance. Finally, quantitative and qualitative evaluations illustrate that the improved Faster-RCNN achieves better performance over the classic methods, yet remains convenient and efficient. |
