Structural crack detection using deep convolutional neural networks
Abstract
Abstract Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) have immense potential to solve a broad range of computer vision problems. It has achieved encouraging results in numerous applications of engineering, medical, and other research fields due to the advancement in hardware, data collection procedures, and efficient algorithms. These innovations have changed the way how specific problems are solved as compared to conventional methods. This article presents a review of CNN implementation on civil structure crack detection. The review highlights the significant research that has been performed to detect structure cracks through classification and segmentation of crack images with CNN in the perspective of image pre-processing techniques, processing hardware, software tools, datasets, network architectures, learning procedures, loss functions, and network performance. The key contribution of this review article is the study and analysis of the most recent developments on crack detection using CNN. Additionally, this work also presents a discussion on crack detection through a manual process, image processing techniques, and machine learning methods along with their limitations. Finally, this article aims for assisting the readers to understand the motivation and methodology of the various CNN-based crack detection methods and to invoke them for exploring the solutions of challenges outlined in future research.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
