Construction monitoring has not been an exception; as a part of construction monitoring systems, material classification and recognition have drawn the attention of deep learning and machine vision researchers. However, to create production-ready systems, there is still a long path to cover. Real-world problems such as varying illuminations and reaching acceptable accuracies need to be addressed in order to create robust systems. In this paper, we have addressed these issues and reached a state of the art performance, i.e., 97.35% accuracy rate for this task. Also, a new dataset containing 1231 images of 11 classes taken from several construction sites is gathered and publicly published to help other researchers in this field.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2020-06-29T20:06:26.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "deep learning methods", "automated progress monitoring", "material recognition", "create robust systems", "create production-ready systems" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
