Innovative segmentation technique for aerial power lines via amplitude stretching transform by Pengfei Xu, Nor Anis Asma Sulaiman, Yafei Ding, Jiangwei Zhao

“…For this reason, this paper designs a pure amplitude stretching kernel function to form a Fourier amplitude vector field and uses this amplitude vector field to implement the stretching transformation of the amplitude field of the aerial power line image, so that the angular field after the Fourier inverse transformation can better react to the spatial domain line targets, and finally, after the Relative Total Variation (RTV) processing, the power line can be well detected. The proposed algorithm is compared with the main power line segmentation algorithms, such as Region Convolutional Neural Networks(R-CNN) and Phase Stretch Transform(PST). …”
