Research on coal-rock boundary identification based on the morphological sobel algorithm.

Due to the harsh underground environment during coal mining, the quality of images collected by cameras is not sufficient, and the acquired images are greatly affected by noise, affecting visual observation; to a certain extent, subsequent intelligent mining is limited. A morphological Sobel coal-rock boundary recognition algorithm is proposed according to the different gray levels of coal-rock images to solve the problem of coal image quality. First, the details of the coal and rock images are smoothly preprocessed to improve the contrast between the feature boundaries and surrounding pixels, and the gray-level adaptive threshold is applied after processing.
