Abstract
Girth weld defects in long-distance oil and gas pipelines are one of the main causes of pipeline leakage failure and serious accidents. Magnetic flux leakage (MFL) is one of the most widely used inline inspection methods for long-distance pipelines. However, it is impossible to determine the type of girth weld defect via traditional manual analysis due to the complexity of the MFL signal. Therefore, an automatic image classification method based on deep convolutional neural networks was proposed to effectively classify girth weld defects via MFL signals. Firstly, the image data set of girth welds MFL signal was established with the radiographic testing results as labels. Then, the deep convolutional generative adversarial network (DCGAN) data enhancement algorithm was proposed to enhance the data set, and the residual network (ResNet-50) was proposed to address the challenge presented by the automatic classification of the image sets. The data set after data enhancement was randomly selected to train and test the improved residual network (ResNet-50), with the ten validation results exhibiting an accuracy of over 80%. The results indicated that the improved network model displayed a strong generalization ability and robustness and could achieve a more accurate MFL image classification of the pipeline girth welds.
