Rail Track Extraction from Rasterized Classified Point Clouds Using a Full-Resolution, Fully Convolutional Recurrent Neural Network

arXiv:2607.06829v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Rail track extraction is essential for effective railway asset management and maintenance, especially in automated inspection and mapping workflows. This paper introduces a novel method for extracting rail tracks from classified 3D point clouds using a fully convolutional recurrent neural network that preserves full spatial resolution and is trained exclusively on synthetically generated data. This approach enhances per-pixel quality and is particu...
