Abstract

This research work explores the possibility of using deep learning to produce an autonomous system for detecting potholes on video to assist in road monitoring and maintenance. Video data of roads was collected using a GoPro camera mounted on a car. Region-based Fully Convolutional Networks (RFCN) was employed to produce the model to detect potholes from images, and validated on the collected videos. The R-FCN model is able to achieve a Mean Average Precision (MAP) of 89% and a True Positive Rate (TPR) of 89% with no false positive.
