This paper presents an automatic estimation method of deterioration levels on transmission towers via Deep Extreme Learning Machine based on Local Receptive Field (DELM-LRF). Although Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) requires a large number of training images, it is difficult to prepare a sufficient number of training images of transmission towers. Thus, we generate a novel estimation method which enables training from a small number of training images. Specifically, we automatically extract image features based on Local Receptive Field (LRF) which combines convolution and pooling without using hand-craft features and estimate deterioration levels via Deep Extreme Learning Machine (DELM), which is a part of efficient deep learning methods. The derivation of DELM-LRF is the biggest contribution of this paper, and it can be trained from less training images compared to CNN. Experimental results show the effectiveness of DELM-LRF for the estimation of deterioration levels on transmission towers. Consequently, the proposed method makes it possible to approach challenging tasks with high expertise having difficulty in preparing enough images.
