Multidefect detection tool for large-scale PV plants: Segmentation and classifi...
Rocha, Daniel; Alves, Joao; Lopes, Vitor; Teixeira, Jennifer P.; Fernandes, Paulo A.; Costa, Mauro; Morais, Modesto; Salome, Pedro M. P.Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) with highresolution optical and infrared (IR) imaging have been introduced in recent years to perform inexpensive and fast inspections in operation and maintenance activities of solar power plants, reducing the labor needed, while lowering the on-site inspection time. Even though UAVs can acquire images extremely quickly, the analysis of those images is still a time-consuming pro...
A Deep Learning Approach for PV Failure Mode Detection in Infrared Images: Firs...
Rocha, Daniel; Lopes, Miguel; Teixeira, Jennifer P.; Fernandes, Paulo A.; Morais, Modesto; Salome, Pedro M. P.Large-scale solar power plants require cheap and quick inspections, for this unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV's) for high resolution optical and infrared imaging were introduced in the past years. While using UAV’s is fast for image acquisition, image is a time-consuming process where the best of practice today is still for an expert to individually analyze each image. As such, in this work we use computer vision t...
