contents This paper presents a novel algorithm for non-destructive damage detection for steel ropes in high-altitude environments (aerial ropeway). The algorithm comprises two key components: First, a segmentation model named RGBD-UNet is designed to accurately extract steel ropes from complex backgrounds. This model is equipped with the capability to process and combine color and depth information through the proposed CMA module. Second, a detection model named VovNetV3.5 is developed to differentiate between normal and abnormal steel ropes. It integrates the VovNet architecture with a DBB module to enhance performance. Besides, a novel background augmentation method is proposed to enhance the generalization ability of the segmentation model. Datasets containing images of steel ropes in different scenarios are created for the training and testing of both the segmentation and detection models. Experiments demonstrate a significant improvement over baseline models. On the proposed dataset, the highest accuracy achieved by the detection model reached 0.975, and the maximum F-measure achieved by the segmentation model reached 0.948.
