arXiv:2606. 20742v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: UAV-based pavement inspection can reduce the cost and risk of road-surface monitoring, but real-world deployment remains difficult when traffic, pedestrians, and temporary occlusions affect defect visibility.
The paper introduces YOLOEZ, a no-code, GUI-based tool that streamlines the entire YOLO model workflow—data labeling, training, and inference—for automated structural defect detection. It demonstrates that YOLOEZ outperforms traditional image‑processing methods across most detection metrics while simplifying deployment for users without programming expertise. The tool aims to lower technical barriers in structural health monitoring, enabling broader adoption of AI-driven inspection for predictive maintenance and intelligent structural systems.
arXiv:2608. 07770v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Automated anomaly detection methods often report strong performance on curated academic benchmarks, but their behavior under real-world industrial conditions is less clear.
The paper introduces a training‑free anomaly detector that simultaneously handles structural and logical defects by calibrating heterogeneous anomaly cues with statistics from normal images. This calibration aligns frozen representations, allowing their fusion without extra training or part‑level supervision. The resulting method achieves state‑of‑the‑art AUROC scores on MVTec‑LOCO and remains competitive on MVTec‑AD.
arXiv:2601. 11665v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are transforming infrastructure inspections in the Architecture, Engineering, Construction, and Facility Management (AEC+FM) domain.
The paper presents a traffic sign recognition system that extends YOLOv2 with a branched architecture and geometric feature integration. By adding intermediate prediction layers, the model can terminate inference early for easy cases, reducing computation time, while unsupervised Bayesian segmentation supplies geometric templates to improve classification of visually similar signs. Experiments on a combined GTSDB/GTSRB dataset show that the branched model achieves 0.680 mAP in 0.647 s, and adding geometric verification during inference raises mAP to 0.713.
