As a preferred embodiment, the operation principle of the tower recognition neural network model is as follows:
the VGG-19 convolutional neural network extracts 512-dimensional image features from the synthetic data; the image feature extraction is completed by the first ten layers of the VGG-19 convolutional neural network, and the image features are extracted by utilizing the first 10 layers of the VGG-19, so that the extraction efficiency is improved.
The first 3 x 3 convolutional layer reduces the dimension of the image feature from 512 to 256;
the second 3 x 3 convolution layer reduces the dimensionality of the image feature from 256 to 128, the 128-dimensional image feature is prepared for a first stage comprising three 3 x 128 layers and one 1 x 512 layer, plus one 1 x 9 belief map layer and one 1 x 6 vector field layer, the remaining five stages are identical to the first stage, unless the remaining five stages receive 153-dimensional input (128+16+ 9) consisting of five 7 x 128 layers and one 1 x 9 or one 1 x 16 layer.

Example 2
In embodiment 2, a plug-in is developed by the UE 4-based system, and it is possible to generate a large amount of high-quality synthesized data including RGB images, depth maps, segmentation maps, and tag data files for each frame. By utilizing asynchronous, multi-threaded sequential frame grabbing, the plug-in generates data at a speed of 50-100Hz, which is much faster than the default UE4 screen capture function. In addition to the composition data, the plug-in also includes different components, such as a scene management component, a virtual camera component; by configuring their properties, highly randomized images can be generated. Such randomization includes lighting, object and camera position, pose, texture and interference, and camera path following, among others. These components enable researchers to easily create stochastic scenarios to train deep neural networks.
By importing the model tower into the UE4 scene, each frame of image of the model tower at various orientations in the realistic scene can be captured and synthetic data generated at high speed using the automatically transferred virtual camera provided by the plug-in. Wherein the virtual camera is composed of a left camera and a right camera, the distance between the left camera and the right camera is maintained at 60cm (this is the coordinate distance in the UE4, and the specific value is set by the size of the object), and the captured frame data includes: the RGB image, the depth map, the segmentation map and the data mark file, since they are captured by the left and right cameras, one frame data includes 8 files.
The synthetic data also automatically generates two profiles: camera _ settings.json and object _ settings.json are: json is a configuration file of the UE4 virtual camera, containing information such as captured picture sizes of some cameras, and position coordinates and orientation matrices of the cameras in the world coordinate system; json is a configuration file for capturing objects, containing information such as class name, coordinates, posture and size of the objects.
In consideration of the particularity of the material of the power tower, the power tower is made of silver white metal and has high reflectivity, so that the influence of illumination on the surface color is obvious in the scene of the UE 4. In order to overcome the interference of illumination factor on the tower detection, random illumination components are added in the UE4 scene when the data is synthesized, and the random illumination components can randomly change the illumination intensity and the position of the light source at a fast speed. Or different illumination intensities are adjusted at different positions of the scene, and a certain amount of data are respectively generated for later training.
