Project Details
Problem Statement
Design and Development of Enhanced Deep Learning Algorithm for
pavement crack segmentation and severity assessment
Motivation
Manual pavement inspection is time-consuming, subjective, and
costly.
Existing deep learning models often struggle with precise crack
localization and severity estimation.
Accurate crack segmentation and severity assessment are essential for
timely maintenance and improved road safety.
