• Abstract summary: 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.

• Abstract: Ensuring traffic safety is crucial, which necessitates the detection and prevention of road surface defects. As a result, there has been a growing interest in the literature on the subject, leading to the development of various road surface defect detection methods. The methods for detecting road defects can be categorised in various ways depending on the input data types or training methodologies. The predominant approach involves image-based methods, which analyse pixel intensities and surface textures to identify defects. Despite their popularity, image-based methods share the distinct limitation of vulnerability to weather and lighting changes. To address this issue, researchers have explored the use of additional sensors, such as laser scanners or LiDARs, providing explicit depth information to enable the detection of defects in terms of scale and volume. However, the exploration of data beyond images has not been sufficiently investigated. In this survey paper, we provide a comprehensive review of road surface defect detection studies, categorising them based on input data types and methodologies used. Additionally, we review recently proposed non-image-based methods and discuss several challenges and open problems associated with these techniques.

  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.

  Face-swap images and videos have attracted more and more malicious attackers to discredit some key figures. Previous pixel-level artifacts based detection techniques always focus on some unclear patterns but ignore some available semantic clues. We propose a biometric information based method to fully exploit the appearance and shape feature for face-swap detection of key figures.

  In the data hiding task, each pixel of cover images should be treated differently since they have divergent tolerabilities. We propose a novel deep data hiding scheme with Inverse Gradient Attention (IGA), combing the ideas of adversarial learning and attention mechanism. Empirically, extensive experiments show that the proposed model outperforms the state-of-the-art methods on two prevalent datasets.
