Abstract

En 中文
Dust pollution poses a grave threat to both the environment and human health, especially in mining operations. To combat this issue, a novel evaluation method is proposed, integrating grayscale average (GA) analysis and deep learning (DL) in image classification. By utilizing a self-designed dust diffusion simulation system, 300 sample images were generated for analysis. The GA method establishes a correlation between grayscale average and dust mass, while incorporating fractal dimension (FD) enhances classification criteria. Both GA and DL methods were trained and compared, yielding promising results with a testing accuracy of 92.2 % and high precision, recall, and F1-score values. This approach not only demonstrates efficacy in classifying dust pollution but also presents a versatile solution applicable beyond mining to diverse dust-contaminated work environments. By combining image processing and deep learning, it offers an automated and reliable system for environmental monitoring, thereby enhancing safety standards and health outcomes in affected industries. Ultimately, this innovative method signifies a significant advancement towards mitigating dust pollution and ensuring sustainable industrial practices.
