| Summary: | Deep learning algorithms have achieved encouraging results for pipeline defect segmentation. However, existing defect segmentation methods may encounter challenges in accurately segmenting the complex features of pipeline defects and suffer from low processing speeds. Therefore, in this study, we propose Pipe-Sparse-Net, a pipeline defect segmentation system that combines StyleGAN3 to segment the complex forms of underground drainage pipe defects. First, we introduce a data augmentation algorithm based on StyleGAN3 to enlarge the dataset. Next, we propose Pipe-Sparse-Net, a pipeline segmentation model based on SparseInst, to accurately predict the defect regions in drainage pipes. Experimental results demonstrate that the segmentation accuracy of this model can reach 91.4% with a processing speed of 56.7 frames per second (FPS). To validate the superiority of this method, comparative experiments were conducted against Yolact, Condinst, and Mask R-CNN, and the model achieved a speed improvement of 45% while increasing the accuracy by more than 4%.
