Treffer: ESSR-GAN: Enhanced super and semi supervised remora resolution based generative adversarial learning framework model for smartphone based road damage detection.

Road surface condition detection is a significant application for many intelligent transportation systems (ITSs) to uphold favourable driving conditions and avoid accidents. However, the accurate detection and classification of road damages have become more challenging. Thus, this paper proposed an enhanced sensor based technology that determines road damage by employing a deep learning (DL) algorithm. Initially, the road damage image is acquired from mobilephone devices and pre-processed using the adaptive Gaussian bilateral filter (AGBF). Then, after data augmentation, the proposed method has applied the super and semi-supervised remora adversarial resolution learning generative (S3-RARLG) model for road damage detection and classification. Initially, a Super-Generative Adversarial Network (SGAN) is used in S3-RARLG to maximize road image clarity and improve road damage detection performance. Then semi-supervised learning is adapted to address the insufficiency of label images by maximizing the expandability of training data. Finally, adversarial learning is enhanced by integrating with SGAN to improve detection performance. Moreover, in S3-RARLG, the weight updation is executed using bionic remora meta-heuristic optimization (BRMO). The proposed ESSR-GAN is simulated on the Python platform, and the performance metrics are determined to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed model using the road damage dataset 2019. As a result, the proposed ESSR-GAN accomplishes a higher accuracy of 99.12%, and the acquired results outperform the existing architectures. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
