Detecting ancient mural deterioration based on adaptive feature selection and category-aware cascaded decision
摘要
Detecting mural deterioration is of great significance for the preventive conservation, scientific restoration, and digital preservation of ancient murals. To this end, we propose a novel mural deterioration detection model based on Adaptive Feature Selection and Category-Aware Cascaded Decision (AFSCACD). This model first employs a Multi-view Feature Extraction (MFE) strategy to capture multiple visual features of murals, thereby comprehensively representing deterioration characteristics. Then, an Adaptive Feature Selection (AFS) strategy dynamically filters and matches features, highlighting discriminative representations while suppressing redundant information. Finally, the Category-Aware Cascaded Decision (CACD) strategy implements cascaded decisions according to the classification difficulty of deterioration cases, effectively improving the detection precision of hard samples and small-scale targets. Experimental results demonstrate that AFSCACD achieves superior performance over mainstream models, with an F1-score of 0.9370 exceeding the baseline by at least 3.55%, thus providing effective technical support for mural conservation.
