Multi-Scale Feature Fusion Model for Bridge Appearance Defect Detection by Rong Pang, Yan Yang, Aiguo Huang, Yan Liu, Peng Zhang, Guangwu Tang

“…Although the Faster Region-based Convolutional Neural Network (Faster R-CNN) model has obvious advantages in defect recognition, it still cannot overcome challenging problems, such as time-consuming, small targets, irregular shapes, and strong noise interference in bridge defect detection. To deal with these issues, this paper proposes a novel Multi-scale Feature Fusion (MFF) model for bridge appearance disease detection. …”
