Automatic Identification and Location of Tunnel Lining Cracks

The lining crack is common for the tunnel in the stage of operation, which has seriously influenced the service life and safety of tunnel engineering. It is a new trend to use computer vision to detect tunnel cracks over the past few years in China and foreign countries. By image processing technology and intelligent algorithm, the computer has a hominine visual perception system which understands, analyzes, and determines input image information, thus recognizing and detecting specific objectives. However, the effect of image recognition for tunnel crack now cannot satisfy the demands of practical engineering. SSD algorithm has been used when analyzing features of lining surface image, while comparison analysis has been made from image recognition results, error rate, and running time. The results indicate that the SSD algorithm can accurately and rapidly detect and mark the position of the tunnel crack. The tunnel information obtained from image recognition is subsequently imported into the team independently developed software GeoSMA-3D, which is useful for determining tunnel grade.
