It is obvious that the drawings in the following description are only some examples of the invention, and that for a person skilled in the art, other drawings and embodiments can be derived from them without inventive effort.
For the sake of simplicity, the drawings only schematically show the parts relevant to the present invention, and they do not represent the actual structure as a product. In addition, in order to make the drawings concise and understandable, components having the same structure or function in some of the drawings are only schematically illustrated or only labeled. In this document, "one" means not only "only one" but also a case of "more than one".
The following describes in detail a method and a system for controlling obstacle avoidance of a rail vehicle according to the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
Referring to fig. 1, the application provides an obstacle avoidance control method for a rail flaw detection vehicle, which includes the following steps:
collecting radar data and image data of the rail flaw detection vehicle in the advancing direction, establishing an interested space area for the radar data, and removing points outside the interested space area;

and processing the image data in real time through the steel rail identification model, identifying and extracting the line characteristics, and controlling the running of the rail flaw detection vehicle according to the line characteristics.
The present embodiment will now be described in detail, but is not limited thereto.
The embodiment is suitable for automatic operation of railway line flaw detection equipment, wherein the rail flaw detection vehicle of the embodiment is equipment for detecting rail diseases, generally runs along the existing rails, can accurately identify obstacles and line characteristics in the advancing direction under the complex working environment of a tunnel through the embodiment, and carries out real-time processing and control on the rail flaw detection vehicle according to real-time detection, so that the safety performance, the intellectualization and the stability of the flaw detection process of the rail flaw detection vehicle are greatly improved.
The embodiment specifically obtains radar data of the advancing direction of the rail flaw detection vehicle through the laser radar, and obtains image data of the advancing direction of the rail flaw detection vehicle through the camera module.
Specifically, the visual angles of the laser radar are different when the laser radar collects the obstacle points each time, the coordinate change of the collected part of the obstacle points is large, and a plurality of obstacle points are irrelevant to the tracking of the obstacle, such as a road surface, leaves, a wall body, a high-voltage power grid and the like. Too many obstacle points can affect the extraction of the peripheral rectangular outline of the obstacle, so that the original data needs to be screened, an interested space area needs to be established for radar data, and points outside the interested space area need to be removed to optimize the radar data, wherein, referring to fig. 2, the optimization process is as follows: acquiring and analyzing radar data, establishing a grid map and performing data projection; calculating the grid density of the grid map, reserving the dense grid according to the preset grid density, deleting the sparse grid, representing the dense grid by four points, generating a new data set serving as an interested space area, removing the obstacle points such as branches and the ground which are not in the interested area through the screening, only reserving the rough outline of the obstacle, and being beneficial to extracting the peripheral rectangle of the obstacle.
Referring to fig. 2, in the present embodiment, a Density Clustering algorithm is used to cluster Spatial regions of interest of radar data, identify and extract contours of obstacles, perform target tracking on the obstacles, and perform obstacle avoidance processing on a rail-probe vehicle, wherein the present embodiment clusters a new data set by using a DBSCAN (Density-Based Spatial Clustering of Applications with Noise) Based algorithm, extracts rectangular contours of dynamic obstacles by using a fuzzy line segment method, and performs target tracking on the obstacles by using a multi-target hypothesis tracking method and a kalman filter. When the obstacle is detected, the rail flaw detection vehicle can be generally stopped and give an alarm to remind workers to carry out obstacle clearing treatment. Specifically, the DBSCAN algorithm performs clustering by using density, that is, the number of objects (points or other spatial objects) included in a certain region in a clustering space is required to be not less than a given threshold, unlike the partitioning and hierarchical clustering method, it defines clusters as a maximum set of points connected by density, can partition a region with sufficiently high density into clusters, and can find clusters of any shape in a noisy spatial database, and cluster original data by combining a variable threshold, thereby greatly improving the accuracy of clustering, simplifying the accurate extraction of a rectangular contour of a dynamic obstacle by applying a fuzzy line segment method, and finally Tracking a target by applying a multi-target Hypothesis Tracking (MHT) method and a filter.
This embodiment carries out real-time processing to image data through rail identification model, discerns and draws the line characteristic to control of traveling to the track flaw detection car according to the line characteristic, wherein, carry out image denoising, edge detection, hough transform in proper order to image data based on rail identification model, obtain the track curvature, and obtain the line characteristic according to the track curvature recognition:
first, screening is performed according to the length of the straight line, a relatively short interference line segment is removed, and then the remaining straight line is screened through an orbit filter, which is shown in fig. 3.
Assuming that the curvature range of the track is (-c, c), the curvature range is divided into n groups, i.e. the curvature range is divided into n sections on average, then, taking the left rail as an example, all the edge points G (i, j) (G (i, j) > T on the image are traversedG,TGA preset threshold value of the edge strength) to obtain the curvature G corresponding to the point1(i, j), deriving from the curvature value the corresponding packet gid as follows:
Figure BDA0002868799180000061
meanwhile, the weight contribution of this edge point to the curvature of the gid group can be calculated as follows:
weight=G(i,j)|sin(D1(i,j)-Θ(i,j))|t
and (4) taking values. And finally, accumulating the weights obtained by calculation and the like to the corresponding curvature groups as shown in the following formula. The weight corresponding to the right rail can be calculated similarly and added to the group corresponding to the curvature of the right rail.
w1(gid)=w1(gid)+weight
Affected by many disturbing factors in the image.
Figure BDA0002868799180000062
In order to make the anti-interference capability of curvature estimation stronger, the weight information in each grouping neighborhood can be combined to obtain wlrThe following formula:
Figure BDA0002868799180000063
from wlrThe group gid with the largest weight is selected as follows:
Figure BDA0002868799180000065
from the calculated curvature groups, the corresponding curvature values can be obtained as estimates for the near track curvature:
Figure BDA0002868799180000064
and drawing a corresponding ideal track on the image according to the curvature, wherein the ideal track is used as the line characteristic obtained by identification. Then, the embodiment can perform running control on the rail flaw detection vehicle based on the line characteristics:
if the line characteristics are identified and extracted to be curves or turnouts, the rail flaw detection vehicle is subjected to deceleration passing processing, and the normal speed is recovered after passing;
if the line characteristics are identified and extracted as straight lines, normal speed passing processing is carried out on the rail flaw detection vehicle;
and if the road junction characteristic is identified and extracted as the road junction, processing the image data again through the road junction identification model, and identifying and extracting the road junction characteristic, wherein if the road junction characteristic is in an open state, continuing to drive, and if the road junction characteristic is in a closed state, stopping the rail flaw detection vehicle.
The image processing of the embodiment utilizes a neural network algorithm to perform algorithm training through a large number of related pictures to obtain a steel rail model, so that the pictures shot by a camera are processed in real time, steel rail lines are extracted, and the identification is performed according to different characteristic points of a curve, a turnout, a crossing and other lines, so that the judgment of different conditions of the line such as a straight line, a curve, a turnout and the like is performed. And similarly, the crossing model is established to judge whether the crossing is in an open state or not.
Specifically, through machine learning in earlier stage to the crossing picture, whether be opening state according to crossing horizontal pole angle judgement, for avoiding partial horizontal pole machinery ageing, consider the crossing opening state when opening angle is greater than 80, be less than 80 for avoiding the horizontal pole transfer motion state consider closing state, the control system signal is fed back to after the image recognition, and it then stops advancing to receive the crossing closed state signal. The curve obtains the curvature radius according to the image recognition track, whether speed reduction processing is needed or not can be judged according to whether the curvature radius is smaller than 1000m, and when the control layer receives the signal recognized as the curve, the speed reduction is started to 10 km/h; and when the image identifies that the intersection point of the steel rail exists in the range of 30 meters, judging the steel rail to be a turnout, and controlling the train body to reduce the speed to 5km/h by the control layer.
Preferably, this embodiment further includes: the video collects the picture of the rail flaw detection vehicle in the advancing direction in real time, transmits the picture to the monitoring intervention platform, receives the intervention instruction of the monitoring intervention platform, and controls the running of the rail flaw detection vehicle according to the intervention instruction.

An operator can watch the driving environment in front of the vehicle in real time through the video acquisition system, can judge whether the vehicle is an obstacle or not, and stops the vehicle if the vehicle is not controlled by manual intervention.
The method comprises the steps that a camera shoots in real time during running of the device and processes data in a background, the background extracts the outline of the shot steel rail in a picture and draws a steel rail line, whether the outline is a curve or not is judged, and the curve is defined as the curve when the curvature radius calculated by the background in the system is smaller than 1000 meters. The shooting distance of the camera is fixed according to hardware model selection, so that the straight line distance of the shooting scene is fixed, and the curvature radius is calculated according to the curve offset distance. When the front side is identified as a curve, the deceleration control is carried out to decelerate the equipment to 10km/h for driving, after the front side is identified as a straight line, the equipment is driven for 30 m (determined by the shooting distance of a camera) to ensure that the equipment is driven out of the curve, and then the equipment is accelerated to 15km/h for driving.
