Abstract :
Switch machine is of fundamental significance among the railway track switch equipment. Therefore, the autonomous dynamic monitoring of railway switch contact intensity of switch machine has always been an important part in the study to ensure safe railway transportation. Based on the improved Hough transform and K nearest neighbour algorithm, the method studied in this paper can effectively detect the distance between inspection column and reference rod, proposing a more convenient solution for the antonymous dynamic monitoring.
