Abstract :
In this paper, a novel crack detection method is proposed based on the digital image of building external wall. We strive to record the wall surface condition accurately, and then get the linear characteristics of the image for crack recognition. This paper first does image edge detection, image binary of adaptive threshold and removal of isolated points, obtaining effective linear characteristics. Finally we distinguish the cracks and the normal lines through the curve fitting and its parameter analysis. The experimental results are satisfactory.
