To address the common issues of false and missed detections in the current process of foreign object detection on power transmission lines
as well as the limited detection accuracy due to the variability in the size of foreign objects
this paper proposes an AAGV-YOLOX model for the detection of foreign objects on power transmission lines. The model first designs an Adaptive Dilated Convolution (Adaptive Dilated Convolution
ADConv) and constructs a feature extraction module (Adaptive Dilated Convolution Module
ADCM) to effectively distinguish the widely distributed foreign objects from background information
thereby enhancing the model's feature extraction capabilities. Subsequently
an Adaptive Receptive Field Feature Fusion (Adaptive Receptive Field Feature Fusion
ARFFF) module is introduced into the neck network to fully integrate features of different scales
further improving detection accuracy. Finally
the GVFL loss function is proposed
which not only increases the convergence speed of the proposed network but also enhances the localization accuracy. Experimental results show that the average precision mean of this model on the self-built dataset of foreign objects on power transmission lines reaches 90.34%
with a 5.56 percentage points improvement over the YOLOXs
demonstrating the effectiveness of the proposed method in improving the detection of foreign objects on power transmission lines.
