Due to the low efficiency and safety of a manual insulator inspection, research on intelligent insulator inspections has gained wide attention. However, most existing defect recognition methods extract abstract features of the entire image directly by convolutional neural networks (CNNs), which lack multi-granularity feature information, rendering the network insensitive to small defects. To address this problem, we propose a multi-granularity fusion network (MGFNet) to diagnose the health status of the insulator. An MGFNet includes a traversal clipping module (TC), progressive multi-granularity learning strategy (PMGL), and region relationship attention module (RRA). A TC effectively resolves the issue of distortion in insulator images and can provide a more detailed diagnosis for the local areas of insulators. A PMGL acquires the multi-granularity features of insulators and combines them to produce more resilient features. An RRA utilizes non-local interactions to better learn the difference between normal features and defect features. To eliminate the interference of the UAV images’ background, an MGFNet can be flexibly combined with object detection algorithms to form a two-stage object detection algorithm, which can accurately identify insulator defects in UAV images. The experimental results show that an MGFNet achieves 91.27% accuracy, outperforming other advanced methods. Furthermore, the successful deployment on a drone platform has enabled the real-time diagnosis of insulators, further confirming the practical applications value of an MGFNet.
