Scene Understanding System of Underground Pipeline Corridors Under Characteristic Degradation Conditions

Accurate scene understanding is crucial for the safe and stable operation of underground utility tunnel inspections. Addressing the characteristics of low-light environments, this paper proposes an object recognition method based on low-light enhanced image semantic segmentation. Secondly, by analyzing image data from real underground utility tunnel environments, the visual language model undergoes scene image fine-tuning to generate scene description text. Thirdly, integrating these functionalities into the system enables real-time processing of captured images and generation of scene understanding results. In practical applications, the average accuracy of the improved recognition model increased by nearly 1% compared to the original model, while the accuracy and recall of the fine-tuned visual-language model surpassed the untuned model by over 70%.

Abstract

Accurate scene understanding is crucial for the safe and stable operation of underground utility tunnel inspections. Addressing the characteristics of low-light environments, this paper proposes an object recognition method based on low-light enhanced image semantic segmentation. Secondly, by analyzing image data from real underground utility tunnel environments, the visual language model undergoes scene image fine-tuning to generate scene description text. Thirdly, integrating these functionalities into the system enables real-time processing of captured images and generation of scene understanding results. In practical applications, the average accuracy of the improved recognition model increased by nearly 1% compared to the original model, while the accuracy and recall of the fine-tuned visual-language model surpassed the untuned model by over 70%.
