Rail-track detection is a crucial function for an active obstacle avoidance system in trains. However, existing methods face challenges in effectively detecting rail-tracks, particularly in turnout scenarios. This study introduces a novel rail-track detection approach using a key-point estimate network. The network treats the rail-track as a pair and constructs a dedicated model for detection. Additionally, a pseudo-attention mechanism leverages the detection output from previous stages, enabling the network to focus on the rail-track region. Also, a dislocation assignment mechanism is proposed to address label assignment confusion at turnouts. Moreover, a rail-track generalized IoU is also introduced, treating the rail-track as a pair and adds a correction term to enhance detection performance. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method achieves a remarkable mF1 score of 69.42%, establishing it as the state-of-the-art (SOTA) in this field. Furthermore, the effectiveness of the proposed method has been validated and applied in real-world testing on the Hong Kong Metro Tsuen Wan Line.
