This study proposes an abnormal region detection algorithm for underground radar based on visual attention mechanism, which enhances and screens abnormal regions quickly through steps such as suppressing background noise and enhancing brightness and directional characteristics. The effectiveness of the algorithm has been verified by actual tests.
Currently, ground penetrating radar is the major technology for the detection of urban road collapses and disaster sources. Vehicle-mounted GPR collects tens of GB of data on site every day, but the present interpretation of abnormal regions detected by radar relies on manual interpretation with low process efficiency. The abnormal region images of GPR are different from the surrounding normal images. In terms of the features of abnormal regions in GPR images with an obvious brightness change and obvious directional characteristics, an abnormal region detection algorithm based on visual attention mechanism is proposed. Firstly, the complex background noise in the GPR images is suppressed by wavelet denoising and gamma transform, and the brightness and directional characteristics of the abnormal regions are enhanced. Secondly, by building a multi-scale image brightness and orientation feature pyramid model, the features of abnormal regions of interest are continuously enhanced, and the rapid screening of abnormal regions has been achieved. The effectiveness of the algorithm has been verified by actual tests on different types of abnormal radar image data.
