Health monitoring of concrete including, detecting defects such as cracking, spalling on fire affected concrete structures plays a vital role in the maintenance of reinforced cement concrete structures. However, this process mostly uses human inspection and relies on subjective knowledge of the inspectors. To overcome this limitation, a deep learning based automatic crack detection method is proposed. Deep learning is a vibrant strategy under computer vision field. The proposed method consists of U-Net architecture with an encoder and decoder framework. It performs pixel wise classification to detect the thermal cracks accurately. Binary Cross Entropy (BCA) based loss function is selected as the evaluation function. Trained U-Net is capable of detecting major thermal cracks and minor thermal cracks under various heating durations. The proposed, U-Net crack detection is a novel method which can be used to detect the thermal cracks developed on fire exposed concrete structures. The proposed method is compared with the other state-of-the-art methods and found to be accurate with 78.12% Intersection over Union (IoU).

Cracks are one of the main distresses that occur on concrete surfaces. Traditional methods for detecting cracks based on two-dimensional (2D) images can be hampered by stains, shadows, and other artifacts, while various three-dimensional (3D) crack-detection techniques, using point clouds, are less affected in this regard but are limited by the measurement accuracy of the 3D laser scanner. In this study, we propose an automatic crack-detection method that fuses 3D point clouds and 2D images based on an improved Otsu algorithm, which consists of the following four major procedures. First, a high-precision registration of a depth image projected from 3D point clouds and 2D images is performed. Second, pixel-level image fusion is performed, which fuses the depth and gray information. Third, a rough crack image is obtained from the fusion image using the improved Otsu method. Finally, the connected domain labeling and morphological methods are used to finely extract the cracks. Experimentally, the proposed method was tested at multiple scales and with various types of concrete crack. The results demonstrate that the proposed method can achieve an average precision of 89.0%, recall of 84.8%, and F1 score of 86.7%, performing significantly better than the single image (average F1 score of 67.6%) and single point cloud (average F1 score of 76.0%) methods. Accordingly, the proposed method has high detection accuracy and universality, indicating its wide potential application as an automatic method for concrete-crack detection.

For overcoming the shortage of Otsu method, proposed an improved Otsu threshold segmentation algorithm. On the basis of Otsu threshold segmentation algorithm, the gray level was divided into two classes according to the image segmentation, to determine the best threshold by comparing their center distance, so as to achieve peak line recognition under the condition of multiple gray levels. Then did experiments on image segmentation of the lane line with MATLAB by traditional Otsu threshold segmentation algorithm and the improved algorithm, the threshold of traditional Otsu threshold segmentation algorithm is 144 and the threshold of the improved Otsu threshold segmentation algorithm is 131, the processing time is within 0.453 s. Test results show that the white part markings appear more, the intersection place of white lines and the background is more clear, so this method can identify lane markings well and meet the real-time requirements.

Improve Image Quality

This paper aims to develop a method of crack grid detection based on convolutional neural network. First, an image denoising operation is conducted to improve image quality. Next, the processed images are divided into grids of different, and each grid is fed into a convolutional neural network for detection. The pieces of the grids with cracks are marked and then returned to the original images. Finally, on the basis of the detection results, threshold segmentation is performed only on the marked grids. Information about the crack parameters is obtained via pixel scanning and calculation, which realises complete crack detection. The experimental results show that 30×30 grids perform the best with the accuracy value of 97.33%. The advantage of automatic crack grid detection is that it can avoid fracture phenomenon in crack identification and ensure the integrity of cracks.

Regular crack inspection of tunnels is essential to guarantee their safe operation. At present, the manual detection method is time-consuming, subjective and even dangerous, while the automatic detection method is relatively inaccurate. Detecting tunnel cracks is a challenging task since cracks are tiny, and there are many noise patterns in the tunnel images. This study proposes a deep learning algorithm based on U-Net and a convolutional neural network with alternately updated clique (CliqueNet), called U-CliqueNet, to separate cracks from background in the tunnel images. A consumer-grade DSC-WX700 camera (SONY, Wuxi, China) was used to collect 200 original images, then cracks are manually marked and divided into sub-images with a resolution of 496   ×   496 pixels. A total of 60,000 sub-images were obtained in the dataset of tunnel cracks, among which 50,000 were used for training and 10,000 were used for testing. The proposed framework conducted training and testing on this dataset, the mean pixel accuracy (MPA), mean intersection over union (MIoU), precision and F1-score are 92.25%, 86.96%, 86.32% and 83.40%, respectively. We compared the U-CliqueNet with fully convolutional networks (FCN), U-net, Encoder–decoder network (SegNet) and the multi-scale fusion crack detection (MFCD) algorithm using hypothesis testing, and it’s proved that the MIoU predicted by U-CliqueNet was significantly higher than that of the other four algorithms. The area, length and mean width of cracks can be calculated, and the relative error between the detected mean crack width and the actual mean crack width ranges from −11.20% to 18.57%. The results show that this framework can be used for fast and accurate crack semantic segmentation of tunnel images.
