Abstract
With the development of power systems, fault diagnosis in infrared images has become increasingly important for ensuring the stability of these systems. In this paper, we propose a multi-objective multilevel threshold image segmentation method based on the boost marine predators algorithm (BMPA) for infrared-image fault diagnosis. As fault points are small, it is difficult to detect the target in an infrared image using existing segmentation methods. To address this, we use 9DKapur as the fitness function and obtain a many-objective optimization problems (MaOPs). Then, we use adaptive weights and opposition-based learning to boost the optimization ability of the MPA and solve the MOP so that a Pareto front is obtained. The DTLZ and WFG test suits are used as benchmarks to evaluate the performance of the BMPA, and electric equipment in infrared images was used to assess the fault-diagnostic ability of the proposed method. The results demonstrate that the BMPA performs better than other optimization algorithms in terms of uniformity measurement, peak signal-to-noise ratio, feature similarity, hypervolume, spacing, and CPU time. On the actual test data, the recall rate and fault detection accuracy of the proposed method were 94.29% and 92.38%, respectively. Insulator faults under various circumstances can be correctly detected in infrared images.
