Abstract

Cracks are one of the most common damages in highway bridges, and timely detection of existing cracks is crucial for the safety of highway bridges. Targeting the issues of low crack detection accuracy and many missed detections in complex backgrounds, a new network ES-YOLOX (Embed-Shuffle-YOLOX) is proposed based on the YOLOX object detection algorithm. This method enhances the backbone network's capability for feature extraction by embedding additional CSPLayer, introducing the reconfigured ShuffleNetV2 structure, introducing depth-separable convolution to decrease both the parameter count and computational load of the network, and finally introducing the ECA attention module to make the network more concerned with crack features. Experimental results show that the proposed method increases the mAP50 value by 2.11 % and the F1 score by 2.17 %, and reduces the number of parameters and calculations by 55.8% and 62.7%.
