Detection of Surface Cracks in Concrete Structures using Deep Learning

We used Adam as the optimizer and train the model for 6 epochs. We use transfer learning to then train the model on the training data set while measuring loss and accuracy on the validation set. As shown by the loss and accuracy numbers below, the model trains very quickly. After the 1st epoch, train accuracy is 87% and validation accuracy is 97%!. This is the power of transfer learning. Our final model has a validation accuracy of 98.4%.
