【摘要】 铁路轨面扣件的缺失、损坏状态与行车安全密切关系。为进一步提高铁路扣件检测性能，提出基于残差网络-单发多框检测器(Residual network-single shot multibox detector, ResNet-SSD)的铁路扣件缺损检测方法。首先，采用虚拟图像技术进行扣件缺损状态图像建模来扩展扣件样本特征信息，完善样本库以解决各类扣件图像不均衡问题。其次，使用ResNet构建特征提取网络，SSD模型进行目标检测，完成对扣件缺损状态的检测。实验结果表明，采用虚拟图像扩展现场采集扣件图像集后，ResNet-SSD网络有更快的收敛速度且mAP提高了3.06%(95.47%-98.53%); ResNet-SSD在召回率为98.8%时，检测准确度可达98.5%,达到了在交并比(Intersection over union, IoU)为0.5时较VGG16-SSD高、与Faster-RCNN相同的评价指标；就检测速度而言，该方法为Faster-RCNN的6倍，VGG16-SSD的1.4倍。该方法可满足铁路扣件实时自动检测的需求。更多还原

【Abstract】 Missing and broken states of railway fasteners are directly related to driving safety. A deep network image detection method for railway fasteners based on residual network-single shot multibox detector(ResNet-SSD) is proposed to improve detection performance. Firstly, virtual image technology is used to simulate the defect states of fasteners, so as to expand feature information and overcome the imbalance problem of various fastener images. Secondly, ResNet is used to construct feature extraction network, and SSD is used for target detection to form ResNet-SSD network to detect the defect states of fasteners. Experimental results show that the ResNet-SSD has faster convergence speed and mean average precision(mAP) is increased by 3.06% from 95.47% to 98.53% after using the virtual image to expand the field collected fastener set; The detection accuracy of ResNet-SSD can reach 98.5% when the recall is 98.8%, which is higher than that of VGG16-SSD and the same as that of Faster-RCNN when intersection over union(IoU) is 0.5; The detection speed of this method is 6 times that of Faster RCNN and 1.5 times that of VGG16-SSD. Therefore, this method can meet the needs of real-time detection of railway fasteners.更多还原
