Automatic Local Segmentation Technique For Detection Of Road Surface Crack
Abstract
Image processing technique has been implemeted to detect the crack on road surface. However, the accuracy of
the detection is still low due to the difficulties in segmentation between crack and non-crack area. This research proposes the
implementation of Sauvola technique to perform automatic local segmentation of crack. The methodology involves preprocessing,
image segmentation, feature extraction and classification step. In segmentation step, in addition to Sauvola, other
techniques, i.e. manual thresholding, Otsu and Bernsen, are also implemented for comparison purpose. The result shows that
Sauvola technique produces consistent segmentation results on high, medium and low quality images. Sauvola method also
perform the best accuracy detection of 96% among them.
