En 中文
To enhance the safety and comfort of vehicle travel, detecting pavement cracks is a critical task in road management. This article introduces an advanced single-stage target detection method utilizing the YOLOv5s algorithm to enhance real-time performance and accuracy. Initially, Squeeze-and-Excitation Networks are integrated into the model to facilitate self-learning for improved crack characterization. Subsequently, anchors computed through the K-means clustering algorithm are closely aligned with the fracture dataset, achieving an adaptation rate of 99.9 % and enhancing the recall rate of the model. Furthermore, the inclusion of the SimSPPF module from YOLOv6 diminishes memory usage and expedites detection speed. By replacing the original nearest up- sampling method with transposed convolution, optimization of up-sampling for crack datasets is achieved. Performance assessments reveal that the refined YOLOv5s algorithm attains an F1 score of 91 %, a mean Average Precision (mAP) of 93.6 %, and a 1.54 % increase in frames per second (fps) for pavement crack detection. This enhancement in detection technology signifies a substantial advancement in the maintenance and longevity of road infrastructure.
