Abstract
The goal of this paper is to automatically detect and classify pavement cracks using digital image processing techniques. This paper uses a pavement distress image enhancement algorithm to correct non-uniform background illumination by calculating the multiplication factors that eliminate the background lighting variations. To extract the linear features such as surface cracks from the pavement images a beamlet transform based algorithm is developed.
