The Rail Surface Defects Recognition via Operating Service Rail Vehicle Vibrations
Rail surface defects will not only bring wheel rail noise during train operation, but also cause corresponding accidents. Most of the existing detection methods are manual detection, which is time-consuming, laborious, inefficient, and subjective.

Deep Learning (Fast R-CNN)-Based Evaluation of Rail Surface Defects
In current railway rails, trains are propelled by the rolling contact between iron wheels and iron rails, and the high frequency of train repetition on rails results in a significant load exertion on a very small area where the wheel and rail come into ...

Rail Surface Defect Detection Based on An Improved YOLOv5s
As the operational time of the railway increases, rail surfaces undergo irreversible defects. Once the defects occur, it is easy for them to develop rapidly, which seriously threatens the safe operation of trains.
