Classification of Infrared Monitor Images of Coal Using an Feature Texture Statistics and Improved BP Network

摘要

It is very important to accurately recognize and locate pulverized and block coal seen in a coal mine's infrared image monitoring system. Infrared monitor images of pulverized and block coal were sampled in the roadway of a coal mine. Texture statistics from the grey level dependence matrix were selected as the criterion for classification. The distributions of the texture statistics were calculated and analysed. A normalizing function was added to the front end of the BP network with one hidden layer. An additional classification layer is joined behind the linear layer. The recognition of pulverized from block coal images was tested using the improved BP network. The results of the experiment show that texture variables from the grey level dependence matrix can act as recognizable features of the image. The innovative improved BP network can then recognize the pulverized and block coal images.
