Timely monitoring of pavement cracks is essential for successful maintenance of road infrastructure. Accurate information concerning crack location and severity enables proactive management of the infrastructure. Blackâbox cameras, which are becoming increasingly widespread at an affordable price, can be used as efficient roadâimage collectors over a wide area. However, the cracks in these images are difficult to detect, because the images containing them often include objects other than roads. Thus, we propose a pixelâlevel detection method for identifying road cracks in blackâbox images using a deep convolutional encoderâdecoder network. The encoder consists of convolutional layers of the residual network for extracting crack features, and the decoder consists of deconvolutional layers for localizing the cracks in an input image. The proposed network was trained on 427 out of 527 images extracted from blackâbox videos and tested on the remaining 100 images. Compared with VGGâ16, ResNetâ50, ResNetâ101, ResNetâ200 with transfer learning, and ResNetâ152 without transfer learning, ResNetâ152 with transfer learning exhibited the best performance, achieving recall, precision, and intersection of union of 71.98%, 77.68%, and 59.65%, respectively. The experimental results prove that the proposed method is optimal for detecting cracks in blackâbox images at the pixel level.
