• Title: Road surface detection and differentiation considering surface damages
• Authors: Thiago Rateke and Aldo von Wangenheim
• Abstract summary: We present an approach for road detection considering variation in surface types, identifying paved and unpaved surfaces and also detecting damage and other information on other road surface that may be relevant to driving safety. Our results show that it is possible to use passive vision for these purposes, even using images captured with low cost cameras.

• Abstract: A challenge still to be overcome in the field of visual perception for vehicle and robotic navigation on heavily damaged and unpaved roads is the task of reliable path and obstacle detection. The vast majority of the researches have as scenario roads in good condition, from developed countries. These works cope with few situations of variation on the road surface and even fewer situations presenting surface damages. In this paper we present an approach for road detection considering variation in surface types, identifying paved and unpaved surfaces and also detecting damage and other information on other road surface that may be relevant to driving safety. We also present a new Ground Truth with image segmentation, used in our approach and that allowed us to evaluate our results. Our results show that it is possible to use passive vision for these purposes, even using images captured with low cost cameras.

  Road damage can pose significant challenges to the integrity, safety, and durability of road infrastructure. In recent years, researchers have explored various data-driven methods for image-based damage detection in road monitoring applications. We propose an improved Cut-and-paste augmentation technique that is both content-aware (i.e. considers the true location of the road in the image) and perspective-aware (i.e. takes into account the difference in perspective between the injected damage and the target image)

  There has been a growing interest in the literature on the subject, leading to the development of various road surface defect detection methods. The predominant approach involves image-based methods, which analyse pixel intensities and surface textures to identify defects. We review recently proposed non-image-based methods and discuss several challenges and open problems associated with these techniques.

• Perspective Aware Road Obstacle Detection [104.57322421897769]
  We show that road obstacle detection techniques ignore the fact that, in practice, the apparent size of the obstacles decreases as their distance to the vehicle increases. We leverage this by computing a scale map encoding the apparent size of a hypothetical object at every image location. We then leverage this perspective map to generate training data by injecting onto the road synthetic objects whose size corresponds to the perspective foreshortening.
