Data-Driven Living Spaces' Heating Dynamics Modeling in Smart Buildings using Machine Learning-Based Identification.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Modeling and control of the heating feature of living spaces remain challenging tasks because of the intrinsic nonlinear nature of the involved processes as well as the strong nonlinearity of the entailed dynamic parameters in those processes. Althou...

Risk Evaluation Model of Highway Tunnel Portal Construction Based on BP Fuzzy Neural Network.

Computational intelligence and neuroscience
Risk assessment for tunnel portals in the construction stage has been widely recognized as one of the most critical phases in tunnel construction as it easily causes accident than the overall length of a tunnel. However, the risk in tunnel portal con...

Factors influencing unsafe behaviors: A supervised learning approach.

Accident; analysis and prevention
Despite its potential, the use of machine learning in safety studies had been limited. Considering machine learning's advantage in predictive accuracy, this study used a supervised learning approach to evaluate the relative importance of different co...

Construction accident narrative classification: An evaluation of text mining techniques.

Accident; analysis and prevention
Learning from past accidents is fundamental to accident prevention. Thus, accident and near miss reporting are encouraged by organizations and regulators. However, for organizations managing large safety databases, the time taken to accurately classi...

An Incremental Radial Basis Function Network Based on Information Granules and Its Application.

Computational intelligence and neuroscience
This paper is concerned with the design of an Incremental Radial Basis Function Network (IRBFN) by combining Linear Regression (LR) and local RBFN for the prediction of heating load and cooling load in residential buildings. Here the proposed IRBFN i...

Prediction of Soil Deformation in Tunnelling Using Artificial Neural Networks.

Computational intelligence and neuroscience
In the past few decades, as a new tool for analysis of the tough geotechnical problems, artificial neural networks (ANNs) have been successfully applied to address a number of engineering problems, including deformation due to tunnelling in various t...

Visualizing what's missing: Using deep learning and Bow-Tie diagrams to identify and visualize missing leading indicators in industrial construction.

Journal of safety research
INTRODUCTION: In the construction industry, where safety is paramount, the frequency and severity of workplace incidents remain critical concerns. Therefore, site safety inspections have become essential for health and safety programs. While incident...

A deep learning-based algorithm for the detection of personal protective equipment.

PloS one
Personal protective equipment (PPE) is critical for ensuring the safety of construction workers. However, site surveillance images from construction sites often feature multi-size and multi-scale targets, leading to low detection accuracy for PPE in ...
