AI Customer ServiceThe process of detecting photovoltaic cell electroluminescence (EL) images using a deep learning model is depicted in Fig. 1. Initially, the EL images are input into a neural network for feature extraction, generating hierarchical features at varying resolutions.
The anomaly detection in photovoltaic (PV) cell electroluminescence (EL) image is of great significance for the vision-based fault diagnosis. Many researchers are committed to solving this problem, but a large-scale open-world dataset is required to validate their novel ideas.
However, traditional object detection models prove inadequate for handling photovoltaic cell electroluminescence (EL) images, which are characterized by high levels of noise. To address this challenge, we developed an advanced defect detection model specifically designed for photovoltaic cells, which integrates topological knowledge extraction.
As the global transition towards clean energy accelerates, the demand for the widespread adoption of solar energy continues to rise. However, traditional object detection models prove inadequate for handling photovoltaic cell electroluminescence (EL) images, which are characterized by high levels of noise.
As illustrated in Fig. 15, we utilized the publicly available PVEL-AD 25 photovoltaic cell electroluminescence (EL) imaging dataset as the foundational dataset for our research.
The prevalence of multiple defects, e.g. micro cracks, inactive regions, gridline defects, and material defects, in PV module can be quantified with an EL image. Modern, deep learning techniques for computer vision can be applied to extract the useful information contained in the images on entire batches of PV modules.
