Abstract
Inspection of the rail state in order to detect defects is one of
the basic tasks in railway maintenance. Rail defects exhibit different
properties and are divided in various categories relating to the type
and position of flaws on the rail. We propose a technique, based on
texture analysis of the rail surface, to detect and classify a
particular class of defects: corrugation
