CMTA: Infrared Detection Model for Power Facility Components via Multi-Angle Perception and Transattn Fusion

Infrared detection of defects in power facilities is critical to the safe operation and fault early warning of power grids. However, conventional inspection methods have distinct limitations, such as delayed response and insufficient condition visualization. To address the pain points and technical challenges of the aforementioned inspection modes, this study proposes a deep learning network model based on multi-angle perception and Transattn feature fusion. This model can effectively improve the defect recognition ability of power facility components in complex scenarios. Firstly, a modified MAPC module is introduced, which enhances the extraction of edge contours of power facility components and detailed infrared thermal textures. Secondly, an innovative Transattn module is proposed to dynamically focus on the core component regions of power facilities. Finally, a feature fusion strategy is used to efficiently integrate the feature maps from each module, outputting component localization results and defect category information. Experimental results based on the infrared detection dataset of power facility components show that compared with classical detection models such as YOLOv10 and DDN, the proposed CMTA model achieves the best performance in all indicators: the highest mAP50 reaches 85.01%, the frame rate (FPS) is 252 frames per second, the parameter count is only 2.8 M, and it significantly shortens the fault response time of operation and maintenance personnel.

Abstract

Infrared detection of defects in power facilities is critical to the safe operation and fault early warning of power grids. However, conventional inspection methods have distinct limitations, such as delayed response and insufficient condition visualization. To address the pain points and technical challenges of the aforementioned inspection modes, this study proposes a deep learning network model based on multi-angle perception and Transattn feature fusion. This model can effectively improve the defect recognition ability of power facility components in complex scenarios. Firstly, a modified MAPC module is introduced, which enhances the extraction of edge contours of power facility components and detailed infrared thermal textures. Secondly, an innovative Transattn module is proposed to dynamically focus on the core component regions of power facilities. Finally, a feature fusion strategy is used to efficiently integrate the feature maps from each module, outputting component localization results and defect category information. Experimental results based on the infrared detection dataset of power facility components show that compared with classical detection models such as YOLOv10 and DDN, the proposed CMTA model achieves the best performance in all indicators: the highest mAP50 reaches 85.01%, the frame rate (FPS) is 252 frames per second, the parameter count is only 2.8 M, and it significantly shortens the fault response time of operation and maintenance personnel.
