Abstract

Drawing on insights from computer graphics, this study introduces the Crack Boundary Point Rendering Network (CBPRN), an innovative high-resolution (HR) image segmentation framework designed to improve UAVbased bridge crack inspections. We developed an edgeguided branch and an uneven sampling strategy, enhancing detail preservation on crack boundary areas effectively. Through comprehensive ablation experiments, the efficacy of the CBPRN was validated, demonstrating its superior performance with remarkable outcomes: a processing speed of 13.45 FPS and mIoU, mBA, and Dice scores of 87.23%, 93.56%, and 89.59%, respectively, for images beyond 2K resolution. The CBPRN establishes a new standard in HR crack image segmentation.
