Detection of Transmission Line Insulator Defects Based on an Improved Lightweight YOLOv4 Model

Defective insulators seriously threaten the safe operation of transmission lines. This paper proposes an insulator defect detection method based on an improved YOLOv4 algorithm. An insulator image sample set was established according to the aerial images from the power grid and the public dataset on...
