用数学函数组合替代卷积,实现超轻量缺陷分割。

KARMA: Efficient Structural Defect Segmentation via Kolmogorov-Arnold Representation Learning

  • 用一维函数组合建模缺陷模式,避免传统卷积的高参数需求。
  • 参数量仅0.959M(减少97%),推理速度达0.264 GFLOPS。
  • 适合部署在实时巡检设备上,尤其适用于数据不平衡场景。

土木基础设施中结构缺陷的语义分割仍面临缺陷外观多样、成像条件恶劣及类别严重不平衡等挑战。现有深度学习方法虽有效,但通常需数百万参数,难以用于实时检测系统。本文提出KARMA(Kolmogorov-Arnold表示映射架构),一种高效语义分割框架,通过一维函数的复合来建模复杂缺陷模式,而非传统卷积。其三项技术创新包括:(1) 基于低秩分解的轻量级柯尔莫哥洛夫-阿诺德网络(TiKAN)模块,实现高效特征变换;(2) 采用可分离卷积优化的特征金字塔结构,支持多尺度缺陷分析;(3) 静态-动态原型机制,增强不平衡类别特征表达。在多个基准基础设施检测数据集上的实验表明,KARMA在均值IoU上达到或超越当前最优方法,同时参数量仅为0.959M(相较31.04M减少97%),推理功耗仅0.264 GFLOPS,满足实时部署要求。源代码已开源:https://github.com/faeyelab/karma。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Semantic segmentation of structural defects in civil infrastructure remains challenging due to variable defect appearances, harsh imaging conditions, and significant class imbalance. Current deep learning methods, despite their effectiveness, typically require millions of parameters, rendering them impractical for real-time inspection systems. We introduce KARMA (Kolmogorov-Arnold Representation Mapping Architecture), a highly efficient semantic segmentation framework that models complex defect patterns through compositions of one-dimensional functions rather than conventional convolutions. KARMA features three technical innovations: (1) a parameter-efficient Tiny Kolmogorov-Arnold Network (TiKAN) module leveraging low-rank factorization for KAN-based feature transformation; (2) an optimized feature pyramid structure with separable convolutions for multi-scale defect analysis; and (3) a static-dynamic prototype mechanism that enhances feature representation for imbalanced classes. Extensive experiments on benchmark infrastructure inspection datasets demonstrate that KARMA achieves competitive or superior mean IoU performance compared to state-of-the-art approaches, while using significantly fewer parameters (0.959M vs. 31.04M, a 97% reduction). Operating at 0.264 GFLOPS, KARMA maintains inference speeds suitable for real-time deployment, enabling practical automated infrastructure inspection systems without compromising accuracy.
