• Abstract: Image environments and noisy labels hinder deep learning-based inference models in structural damage detection. Post-detection, there is the challenge of reliance on manual assessments of detected damages. As a result, Guided-DetNet, characterized by Generative Attention Module (GAM), Hierarchical Elimination Algorithm (HEA), and Volumetric Contour Visual Assessment (VCVA), is proposed to mitigate complex image environments, noisy labeling, and post-detection manual assessment of structural damages. GAM leverages cross-horizontal and cross-vertical patch merging and cross foreground-background feature fusion to generate varied features to mitigate complex image environments. HEA addresses noisy labeling using hierarchical relationships among classes to refine instances given an image by eliminating unlikely class categories. VCVA assesses the severity of detected damages via volumetric representation and quantification leveraging the Dirac delta distribution. A comprehensive quantitative study, two robustness tests, and an application scenario based on the PEER Hub Image-Net dataset substantiate Guided-DetNet's promising performances. Guided-DetNet outperformed the best-compared models in a triple classification task by a difference of not less than 3% and not less than 2% in a dual detection task under varying metrics.

  Few-shot fine-grained recognition (FS-FGR) aims to recognize novel fine-grained categories with the help of limited available samples. We propose a two-stage background suppression and foreground alignment framework, which is composed of a background activation suppression (BAS) module, a foreground object alignment (FOA) module, and a local to local (L2L) similarity metric. Experiments conducted on multiple popular fine-grained benchmarks demonstrate that our method outperforms the existing state-of-the-art by a large margin.

  Computer vision-based damage detection using remote cameras and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) enables efficient and low-cost bridge health monitoring. This paper introduces a semantic segmentation framework that imposes the hierarchical semantic relationship between component category and damage types. In this way, the damage detection model could focus on learning features from possible damaged regions only and avoid the effects of other irrelevant regions.

  In this paper, we argue that one effective alternative is to devise an approximate loss who can achieve trend-level alignment with SkewIoU loss. Specifically, we model the objects as Gaussian distribution and adopt Kalman filter to inherently mimic the mechanism of SkewIoU. The resulting new loss called KFIoU is easier to implement and works better compared with exact SkewIoU.
