Downstream Semantic Segmentation Model for Low-Level Surface Crack Detection by Thitirat Siriborvornratanakul

“…An off-the-shelf semantic segmentation model named DeepLabV3-ResNet101 is used as a base model and then experimented with different loss functions and training strategies. Our experimental results have revealed that the downstream models trained by the classic cross-entropy loss function cannot provide reasonable results in pixel-level crack detection. …”
