A Neural Network Algorithm For Detecting Invisible Concrete Surface Cracks In Near-Field Millimeter-Wave Images |
Abstract | ||
---|---|---|
Using near-field millimeter-wave imaging, we have developed a nondestructive inspection tool called "Crack Scan" to detect concrete surface cracks of sub-millimeter width. In this paper, we propose a new image-processing algorithm based on a cross-coupled neural network, which enables Crack Scan to detect invisible cracks in blurred images. We demonstrate that our algorithm can detect a 0.2-mm-wide crack under a ceramic tile on-site. |
