The purpose of our study is to detect cracks accurately from asphalt pavement surface images, which includes unexpected objects, non-uniform illumination, and irregularities in surfaces. We propose a method to construct a classification Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) model based on the pre-trained U-Net, which is a well-known semantic segmentation model. Firstly, we train the U-Net with a limited amount of the asphalt pavement surface dataset which is obtained by a Mobile Mapping System (MMS). Then, we use the encoder of the trained U-Net as a feature extractor to construct a classification model, and train by fine-tuning. We describe comparative evaluations with VGG11, ResNet18, and GoogLeNet as well-known models constructed by transfer learning using ImageNet, which is a large size dataset of natural images. Experimental results show our model has high classification performance, compared to the other models constructed by transfer learning using ImageNet. Our method is effective to construct convolutional neural network model using the limited training dataset.
