Abstract

Pipeline feature recognition is crucial for the reliability and safety of long-distance natural gas pipelines. Utilizing manual or machine learning methods to recognize pipeline features is not only inefficient, but also has problems such as high misjudgment rate and poor robustness. To overcome the above problems, this paper proposes a pipeline feature recognition method based on Multi-scale Attention Convolutional Neural Network (MACNN) and Gated_Twins_Transformer. MACNN is used to extract multi-scale information of pipeline features, and then the attention mechanism in it to focus on the more important feature information and suppress the less important feature information. It is then transmitted to the Gated_Twins_Transformer model, which uses the gated mechanism and the twins encoder module to determine the importance of the data length and input dimensions, focusing on the feature information of both with different weights, and the Transformer enhances the extraction of global features. Finally, the measured pipeline bending strain data are used as model input, trained and tested, and compared with other advanced models, the superiority of the proposed model in this paper is verified by comparing the metrics of Accuracy, Precision, Recall and F1-score.
