Bridge Crack Semantic Segmentation Based on Improved Deeplabv3+

Cracks are the main goal of bridge maintenance and accurate detection of cracks will help ensure their safe use. Aiming at the problem that traditional image processing methods are difficult to accurately detect cracks, deep learning technology was introduced and a crack detection method based on an improved DeepLabv3+ semantic segmentation algorithm was proposed. In the network structure, the densely connected atrous spatial pyramid pooling module was introduced into the DeepLabv3+ network, which enabled the network to obtain denser pixel sampling, thus enhancing the ability of the network to extract detail features. While obtaining a larger receptive field, the number of network parameters was consistent with the original algorithm. The images of bridge cracks under different environmental conditions were collected, and then a concrete bridge crack segmentation data set was established, and the segmentation model was obtained through end-to-end training of the network. The experimental results showed that the improved DeepLabv3+ algorithm had higher crack segmentation accuracy than the original DeepLabv3+ algorithm, with an average intersection ratio reaching 82.37%, and the segmentation of crack details was more accurate, which proved the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.
