New Compass network tackles crack segmentation with missing data

Researchers have developed Compass, a novel lightweight network designed for robust crack segmentation in industrial facilities, even when certain data modalities are missing. The system employs Degradation Simulation Distillation (DSD) to train for missing data scenarios and a Needle Block backbone for efficient, structure-aware modeling. Compass also features Evidential Topology-Preserving Fusion (ETPF) to maintain crack topology and suppress unreliable features. Experiments show Compass achieves state-of-the-art performance, maintaining high F1 and mIoU scores even with significant modality loss. AI

IMPACT This research offers a novel approach to improve the robustness of AI models in scenarios with incomplete data, potentially impacting industrial monitoring and maintenance applications.
