Abstract
Abstract: Potholes pose significant risks to road safety and vehicle maintenance, leading to accidents and costly repairs. Traditional methods of pothole detection are often labour-intensive and time-consuming. In this study, we propose an innovative approach to pothole detection using YOLOv8, a state-of-the-art object detection algorithm. By harnessing the power of deep learning, our system can accurately identify and locate potholes in real-time video streams from traffic cameras and vehicles. We employ YOLOv8, an advanced variant of the You Only Look Once (YOLO) algorithm, known for its speed and accuracy in real-time object detection tasks. Leveraging a large annotated dataset of road images, we fine-tune the YOLOv8 model to specifically detect potholes. Our trained model is capable of identifying various pothole sizes and shapes, even in challenging lighting and weather conditions.
