From my knowledge, the dataset used in the project is the largest crack segmentation dataset so far. It contains around 11.200 images that are merged from 12 available crack segmentation datasets.

The name prefix of each image is assigned to the corresponding dataset name that the image belong to. There're also images with no crack pixel, which could be filtered out by the file name pattern "noncrack*"

All the images are resized to the size of (448, 448).

The two folders images and masks contain all the images. The two folders train and test contain training and testing images splitted from the two above folder. The splitting is stratified so that the proportion of each dataset in the train and test folder are similar.
