Abstract

The identification of targets varies in different surge tests. A multi-color space threshold segmentation and self-learning k-nearest neighbor algorithm (k-NN) for equipment under test status identification was proposed after using feature matching to identify equipment status had to train new patterns every time before testing. First, color space (L*a*b*, hue saturation lightness (HSL), hue saturation value (HSV)) to segment was selected according to the high luminance points ratio and white luminance points ratio of the image. Second, the unknown class sample Sr was classified by the k-NN algorithm with training set Tz according to the feature vector, which was formed from number of pixels, eccentricity ratio, compactness ratio, and Euler’s numbers. Last, while the classification confidence coefficient equaled k, made Sr as one sample of pre-training set Tz′. The training set Tz increased to Tz+1 by Tz′ if Tz′ was saturated. In nine series of illuminant, indicator light, screen, and disturbances samples (a total of 21600 frames), the algorithm had a 98.65% identification accuracy, also selected five groups of samples to enlarge the training set from T0 to T5 by itself.
