The presence of billboards on building facades has been regarded as an important factor of the disorder, but its quantification methodology has not yet been developed in a scalable manner. To fill the gap, this paper reports the performance of our deep learning model on a unique data set prepared in Tokyo to recognize the areas covered by facades and billboards in streetscapes, respectively. The model achieved 63.17 % of accuracy, measured by Intersection-over-Union (IoU), thus enabling researchers and practitioners to obtain insights on urban streetscape design by combining data of people's preferences.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2106.15361v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2106.15361v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"quantifying-urban-streetscapes-with-deep","repo_url":"https://github.com/ursci/billboard-segmentation-model","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"pytorch","reach":null}],"tasks":[{"task_slug":"deep-learning","task_name":"Deep Learning"}],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
