The detection and segmentation of pipeline inspection features for diagnostically lossless data compression
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we discuss the characteristics of pipeline features, e.g. welds, cracks and erosion objects, and present a method for the diagnostically lossless compression of Transverse Field Inspection (TFI) data, a new type of pipeline inspection data in contrast to the traditional Magnetic Flux Leakage (MFL) inspection data.

Diagnostically Lossless Compression of Pipeline Inspection Data
All pipelines are subject to corrosion and require inspection in accordance with regulatory requirements to ensure human safety. Intelligent Pipeline Inspection Gauges (PIGs) as shown in Figure 1 have provided reliable on-line inspection of pipelines for many years, supplying operators with detailed information about pipeline condition. The average transmission pipe length is 300km and the aver...
متن کاملA Diagnostically Lossless Compression Method and Fpga Implementation for Pipeline Magnetic Flux Leakage Inspection Data
In order to enhance the precision of the pipeline MFL (Magnetic Flux Leakage) detecting system measurement, detailed flux information obtained by decreasing time and space intervals for sampling is needed. The huge amount of data produced by this will exceed the processing ability of the system. Data compression is an effective way of solving this problem. In this paper we present a diagnostica...
متن کاملLossless Microarray Image Compression by Hardware Array Compactor
Microarray technology is a new and powerful tool for concurrent monitoring of large number of genes expressions. Each microarray experiment produces hundreds of images. Each digital image requires a large storage space. Hence, real-time processing of these images and transmission of them necessitates efficient and custom-made lossless compression schemes. In this paper, we offer a new archi...
متن کاملSegmentation-Based Multilayer Diagnosis Lossless Medical Image compression
Hospital and clinical environments are moving towards computerisation, digitisation and centralisation, resulting in prohibitive amounts of digital medical image data. Compression techniques are, therefore, essential in archival and communication of medical image. Although lossy compression yields much higher compression rates, the medical community has relied on lossless compression for legal ...
متن کاملAdded Resistance of an AUV Moving Inside a Water Pipeline Due to Wall Proximity
This paper evaluates the added resistance of a torpedo shape AUV, moving inside a water pipeline, due to wall effects within the tube. Today, there are long length pipelines of water or petroleum that need to regular inspection. Early detection of failure will help to prevent breakdown and avoid the huge cost of an accident. As pipelines are enclosed environments and difficult to access, pipeli...
