Abstract
ABSTRACT Cracks in the asphalt are the first and most common deterioration type of roads that generally threaten the safety of roads and highways. In recent years, automated inspection has been considered due to the high cost and error of manual methods. For this purpose, different machine learning techniques have been developed. In this study, an integrated model is proposed, which involves the following steps: image segmentation, noise reduction, feature extraction, and crack classification. In the first two steps, heuristic algorithms are proposed, and then in the third step, the Hough transform technique and the heuristic equations are used to extract the main features of cracks. In the fourth step, six different classification models, including neural network, SVM, decision tree, KNN, Bagged Trees, and a proposed hybrid model, are implemented. Experimental results show that the proposed hybrid model can achieve more accurate results with 93.86% overall accuracy.
