PCI Estimation Method for Evaluating Asphalt Deterioration Leveraging SAM and YOLOv8

Abstract

AbstractThis study presents a deep-learning-based approach to estimating the pavement condition index (PCI) to evaluate asphalt deterioration. Current machine learning and deep learning models are integrated to optimize traditional methods, which are ...Practical ApplicationsRoad agencies need fast, accurate, and cost-effective ways to monitor pavement health and prioritize maintenance. Traditional methods rely on manual surveys to detect damage and calculate the pavement condition index (PCI), which can ...
