J. appl. res. technol []. 2024, 22, 1, pp.102-110.   11--2025. ISSN 2448-6736.  https://doi.org/10.22201/icat.24486736e.2024.22.1.1837.

This article proposes a pulse-coupled neural network based on an adaptive Gabor filter for pavement crack segmentation in digital images. By estimating the image noise, the filter parameters that convolves the neurons of the model are adjusted. As a result, iterations were reduced to 2% with ≈ 90% precision. The algorithm was parallelized on GPU and the processing time was reduced to n/ 𝑁𝑀 regardless of the M and N dimensions of the image.
