Deep learning without human labeling for on-site rebar instance segmentation using synthetic BIM data and domain adaptation

Le résumé fourni par la source

On-site rebar inspection is crucial for structural safety but remains labor-intensive and time-consuming. While deep learning presents a promising solution, existing research often relies on limited real-world labeled data. This paper introduces a framework to train a deep learning model for on-site rebar instance segmentation without human labeling. Synthetic data are generated from BIM models, creating a Synthetic On-site Rebar Dataset (SORD) with 25,287 labeled images. Domain adaptation is incorporated to bridge the gap between synthetic and real-world non-labeled data. This approach eliminates the need for human labeling. It significantly enhances model performance, achieving a threefold improvement in Average Precision (AP) metrics compared to models trained on limited real-world data. Additionally, the proposed method demonstrates superior performance across various on-site rebar images collected online, underscoring its generalizability and practical applications.
