LiqD: A Dynamic Liquid Level Detection Model under Tricky Small Containers (2403.08273v1)

Abstract: In daily life and industrial production, it is crucial to accurately detect changes in liquid level in containers. Traditional contact measurement methods have some limitations, while emerging non-contact image processing technology shows good application prospects. This paper proposes a container dynamic liquid level detection model based on U^2-Net. This model uses the SAM model to generate an initial data set, and then evaluates and filters out high-quality pseudo-label images through the SemiReward framework to build an exclusive data set. The model uses U^2-Net to extract mask images of containers from the data set, and uses morphological processing to compensate for mask defects. Subsequently, the model calculates the grayscale difference between adjacent video frame images at the same position, segments the liquid level change area by setting a difference threshold, and finally uses a lightweight neural network to classify the liquid level state. This approach not only mitigates the impact of intricate surroundings, but also reduces the demand for training data, showing strong robustness and versatility. A large number of experimental results show that the proposed model can effectively detect the dynamic liquid level changes of the liquid in the container, providing a novel and efficient solution for related fields.
