In the present study, an integrated framework for automatic detection, segmentation, and
measurement of road surface cracks is proposed. First, road images are captured, and crack
regions are detected based on the fifth version of the You Only Look Once (YOLOv5)
algorithm; then, a modified Residual Unity Networking (Res-UNet) algorithm is proposed for
accurate segmentation at the pixel level within the crack regions; finally, a novel crack
surface feature quantification algorithm is developed to determine the pixels of crack in width …
In the present study, an integrated framework for automatic detection, segmentation, and measurement of road surface cracks is proposed. First, road images are captured, and crack regions are detected based on the fifth version of the You Only Look Once (YOLOv5) algorithm; then, a modified Residual Unity Networking (Res-UNet) algorithm is proposed for accurate segmentation at the pixel level within the crack regions; finally, a novel crack surface feature quantification algorithm is developed to determine the pixels of crack in width and length, respectively. In addition, a road crack dataset containing complex environmental noise is produced. Different shooting distances, angles, and lighting conditions are considered. Validated through the same dataset and compared with You Only Look at CoefficienTs ++ (YOLACT++) and DeepLabv3+, the proposed method shows higher accuracy for crack segmentation under complex backgrounds. Specifically, the crack damage detection based on the YOLOv5 method achieves a mean average precision of 91%; the modified Res-UNet achieves 87% intersection over union (IoU) when segmenting crack pixels, 6.7% higher than the original Res-UNet; and the developed crack surface feature algorithm has an accuracy of 95% in identifying the crack length and a root mean square error of 2.1 pixels in identifying the crack width, with the accuracy being 3% higher in length measurement than that of the traditional method.
