Design of Convolution Neural Network for Crack Detection

Crack is an important factor to consider when assessing the quality of concrete structures since it impacts the structure's longevity, application, and safety. Convolutional neural networks are increasingly the best option to replace manual crack detection because of the advancement of methods for deep learning. Machine learning algorithms known as artificial neural networks (ANNs) imitate how the human brain functions. These Neural Networks can be implemented in software. However, these neural networks require large computations. Hardware implementation of these neural networks has higher processing speeds than their software implementations. CNN is a particular kind of artificial neural network that is used to interpret pixel data and is utilised in image detection and processing. Computer Vision applications including object identification, image segmentation, and image classification work well with convolutional neural networks. employed for categorization The proposed method uses a configurable convolution neural network system for crack detection. An accuracy of 97.5% is achieved over 200 images. By detecting the crack effectively using the method, the quality of the concrete structures will be ensured using dedicated hardware shortly.
