Abstract

The objective of this research is to collect and analyse road surface conditions in Malaysia using Internet-of-Things (IoT) sensors, together with the development of a machine learning model that can identify these conditions. This allows for the facilitation of low cost data acquisition and informed decision making in helping local authorities with repair and resource allocation. The conditions considered in this study include smooth surfaces, uneven surfaces, potholes, speed bumps, and rumble strips. Statistical features such as minimum, maximum, standard deviation, median, average, skewness, and kurtosis are considered, both time and frequency domain forms. Selection of features is performed using Ranker, Greedy Algorithm and Particle Swarm Optimisation (PSO), followed by classification using k-Nearest Neighbour (k-NN), Random Forest (RF), and Support Vector Machine (SVM) with linear and polynomial kernels. The model is able to achieve an accuracy of 99%, underlining the effectiveness of the model to identify these conditions.
