TriCrackNet: Trilateral Segmentation Network for Real‐Time Crack Segmentation

open access: yesCAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT To achieve high‐precision real‐time crack segmentation, we propose TriCrackNet, an efficient network based on a tri‐branch collaborative architecture incorporating boundary constraints, semantic parsing, and spatial refinement. In the semantic branch, efficient atrous spatial pyramid pooling (EASPP) is integrated.
