In-pit coal mine personnel uniqueness detection technology based on personnel positioning and face recognition

Since the coal mine in-pit personnel positioning system neither can effectively achieve the function to detect the uniqueness of in-pit coal-mine personnel nor can identify and eliminate violations in attendance management such as multiple cards for one person, and swiping one's cards by others in China at present. Therefore, the research introduces a uniqueness detection system and method for in-pit coal-mine personnel integrated into the in-pit coal mine personnel positioning system, establishing a system mode based on face recognition + recognition of personnel positioning card + release by automatic detection. Aiming at the facts that the in-pit personnel are wearing helmets and faces are prone to be stained during the face recognition, the study proposes the ideas that pre-process face images using the 2D-wavelet-transformation-based Mallat algorithm and extracts three face features: miner light, eyes and mouths, using the generalized symmetry transformation-based algorithm. This research carried out test with 40 clean face images with no helmets and 40 lightly-stained face images, and then compared with results with the one using the face feature extraction method based on grey-scale transformation and edge detection. The results show that the method described in the paper can detect accurately face features in the above-mentioned two cases, and the accuracy to detect face features is 97.5% in the case of wearing helmets and lightly-stained faces.

Concurrent collision probability of RFID tags in underground mine personnel position systems

According to the basic requirements of underground mine personnel position systems and the working characteristics of active RFID tags,we studied the cause of concurrent collision of RFID tags and leak reading probability,by means of theoretical analysis and computation.The result shows that the probability of wireless collision increases linearly with an increase in the number of tags.The probability of collision and leak reading can be reduced by extending the working period of the duty cycle and using a backoff algorithm.In a practical application,a working schedule for available labels has been designed according to the requirement of the project.

Personnel Localization Method in Transformer Substation Based on Factor Graph

A SINS/GNSS location method based on factor diagram is proposed to meet the requirement of accurate location of substation construction personnel. In this paper, the inertial autonomous positioning, carrier motion information acquisition and satellite positioning technologies are integrated. The factor graph method is adopted to abstract the measurement information received by inertial navigation and satellite into factor nodes, and the state information into variable nodes, so as to construct the SINS/GNSS construction personnel positioning fusion factor graph model. The Gauss-Newton iterative method is used to implement the recursive updating of variable nodes, and the optimal estimate of the location information of the construction personnel is calculated, which realized the high precision location of the construction personnel. The factor graph method is verified by pedestrian navigation data. The results show that the factor graph method can continuously and stably output high-precision positioning results, and realize non-equidistant fusion of SINS and GNSS. The positioning accuracy is better than Kalman filter algorithm, and the horizontal positioning accuracy is less than 1 m. Therefore, the factor graph method proposed can provide accurate location information for substation construction personnel.
