Abstract:

In order to prevent safety accidents caused by unsafe behaviors of underground personnel and to ensure their safety, by utilizing advanced machine vision and computer technologies, the traditional YOLOv5s algorithm and OpenPose algorithm target detection models were improved, and a dual-model coupled algorithm for identifying unsafe behaviors of underground personnel was proposed. Through statistical analysis of the most common unsafe behaviors in current underground coal mines, the unsafe behaviors of miners were classified, including item-related, action-related, and area-related unsafe behaviors. According to the characteristics of miners' unsafe behaviors, the improved YOLOv5s algorithm and the OpenPose algorithm were coupled for recognition, and training and verification were conducted on public datasets and self-built datasets. The results show that compared with the current mainstream methods, the dual-model coupled recognition method has a significant improvement in recognition accuracy on self-built datasets and public datasets, with an increase of 5% to 10%, and can quickly and effectively identify unsafe behaviors of underground personnel.
