Title: Rethinking Infrastructure Inspection as Image Difference Classification: A Traffic Sign Case Study
Abstract:
arXiv:2606.06375v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Digital twins (DTs) allow the digitalization of road infrastructure inspection, though this is hindered by limited annotated data. This work exploits the relational nature of continuous asset condition monitoring to reformulate image-based defect detection as image difference classification (IDC) to reduce data reliance. This was evaluated in a case study on low-resource traffic sign inspection with different IDC classifiers using a newly-curated,
