A novel machine learning‐based algorithm to detect damage in high‐rise building structures

Rafiei, Mohammad Hossein, Adeli, Hojjat·2017·The Structural Design of Tall and Special Buildings

Abstract

Summary: A novel model is presented for global health monitoring of large structures such as high‐rise building structures through adroit integration of 2 signal processing techniques, synchrosqueezed wavelet transform and fast Fourier transform, an unsupervised machine learning technique, the restricted Boltzmann machine, and a recently developed supervised classification algorithm called neural dynamics classification (NDC) algorithm. The model extracts hidden features in the frequency domain of the denoised measured response signals recorded by sensors on different elevations or floors of a structure. The extracted features are used as an input of the NDC to detect and classify the global health of the structure into categories such as healthy, light damage, moderate damage, severe damage, and near collapse. The proposed model is validated using the data obtained from a 3D 1:20 scaled 38‐story reinforced concrete building structure. The results are compared with 3 other supervised classification algorithms:k‐nearest neighbor (KNN), probabilistic neural networks (PNN), and enhanced PNN (EPNN). NDC, EPNN, PNN, and KNN yield maximum average accuracies of 96%, 94%, 92%, and 82%, respectively.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
