A novel MPDENet model and efficient combined loss function for real-time pixel-level segmentation detection of tunnel lining cracks by Ningyu Zhao, Yi Song, Hao Liu, Ailin Yang, Haifei Jiang, Haihong Tan

“…In this study, an efficient combined loss function was proposed to address the sample imbalance issue, and a novel lightweight model, MPDENet, was introduced for real-time pixel-level segmentation detection of tunnel lining cracks of interference backgrounds. Specifically, the ResNet50 was replaced with improved MobileNetV2 as a backbone for the Pyramid Scene Parsing Network (PSPNet) to strike a desirable balance between detection accuracy and computational efficiency. …”
