摘要
The particle size of pellets is an important parameter in steel big data, and the high density and high overlap rate of pellets bring a great challenge to particle size detection. To address this problem, a particle size intelligent detection algorithm with an improved watershed and a Gaussian mixture model (GMM) is proposed. First, the initial segmentation of the pellets and background is achieved by using adaptive binary segmentation, and then the secondary fine segmentation of the pellets and background is achieved by combining morphological operations such as skeleton extraction and marked watershed segmentation; then, the contour of the connected domain of pellets is calculated, and the non-overlapping pellets in the foreground and the overlapping pellets are filtered according to the roundness of their contours. Finally, the number of overlapping pellets is predicted by Gaussian reconstruction of the grayscale image of the overlapping pellets, and the number and granularity of the overlapping pellets are predicted by the Gaussian reconstruction of the overlapping pellets. The experimental results showed that the algorithm achieved a 91.98% segmentation accuracy in the experimental images. Compared with other algorithms, the algorithm can also effectively suppress the over-segmentation and under-segmentation problems, and it can effectively realize the pellet size detection of dense, overlapping pellets such as those on a pelletizing disk, which provides an effective technical means for the metallurgical performance analysis of pellet ore and intelligent pellet-making driven by big data.
