This study presents a novel demographics informed deep learning framework designed to forecast urban spatial transformations by jointly modeling geographic satellite imagery, socio-demographics, and travel behavior dynamics. The proposed model employs an encoder-decoder architecture with temporal gated residual connections, integrating satellite im...

Transportation planning plays a critical role in shaping urban development, economic mobility, and infrastructure sustainability. However, traditional planning methods often struggle to accurately predict long-term urban growth and transportation demands. This may sometimes result in infrastructure demolition to make room for current transportation...

The accurate detection and segmentation of pavement distresses, particularly tiny and small cracks, are critical for early intervention and preventive maintenance in transportation infrastructure. Traditional manual inspection methods are labor-intensive and inconsistent, while existing deep learning models struggle with fine-grained segmentation a...

Road infrastructure maintenance in developing countries faces unique challenges due to resource constraints and diverse environmental factors. This study addresses the critical need for efficient, accurate, and locally-relevant pavement distress detection methods in these regions. We present a novel deep learning approach combining YOLO (You Only L...
Preprint
Full-text available
This research introduces the first multimodal approach for pavement condition assessment, providing both quantitative Pavement Condition Index (PCI) predictions and qualitative descriptions. We introduce PaveCap, a novel framework for automated pavement condition assessment. The framework consists of two main parts: a Single-Shot PCI Estimation Net...
Article

Accurately detecting power line defects under diverse weather conditions is crucial for ensuring power grid reliability and safety. Existing power line inspection datasets, while valuable, often lack the diversity needed for training robust machine learning models, particularly for adverse weather scenarios like fog, rain, and nighttime conditions....
