Accessible Breakpoint Recognition of Tactile Pavement Based on Graph Neural Networks

A graph-neural-network method for detecting breaks in tactile paving networks and supporting safer assisted travel.

Spatial network and contextual design study

Abstract

This study frames tactile paving as a connected spatial network and uses graph neural networks to identify accessibility breakpoints. The method supports systematic diagnosis of interrupted routes, helping translate scattered street-level defects into an interpretable network for planning, maintenance, and assisted-travel services.
