Automated detection of in situ events of interest, such as earthquakes, from extensive continuous monitoring data, is important to ensure the timeliness of subsequent data analysis. To overcome the poor timeliness of manual identification and the inconsistency of sensors, this paper proposes an automated seismic event detection procedure with interpretability and robustness. The sensor-wise raw time series is transformed into image data, enhancing the separability of classification while endowing with visual understandability. Vision Transformers (ViTs) and Residual Networks (ResNets) aided by a heat map–based visual interpretation technique are used for image classification. Multitype faulty data that could disturb the seismic event detection are considered in the classification. Then, divergent results from multiple sensors are fused by Bayesian fusion, outputting a consistent seismic detection result. A real-world monitoring data set of four seismic responses of a pair of long-span bridges is used for method validation. At the classification stage, ResNet 34 achieved the best accuracy of over 90% with minimal training cost. After Bayesian fusion, globally consistent and accurate seismic detection results can be obtained using a ResNet or ViT. The proposed approach effectively localizes seismic events within multisource, multifault monitoring data, achieving automated and consistent seismic event detection.","PeriodicalId":156,"journal":{"name":"Computer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering","volume":"73 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":11.775,"publicationDate":"2024-11-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142678353","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Unfortunately, these projects also cause travel delays, emissions, driver frustration, and other road user adversities. To alleviate these ills, road agencies often face two work zone design choices: close the road fully and re-reroute traffic or implement partial closure. Both options have significant implications for peri-construction road capacity, traveler costs, and the project duration and cost. This study presents a decision-making methodology to facilitate the choice between full road closure and partial closure. The presented decision-making methodology is a bi-level optimization problem: at the upper level, the road agency seeks to optimally schedule road construction work to minimize net vehicle emissions and road construction costs. The lower-level of the problem captures two types of travelers’ route choice behaviors: rational travelers who minimize their travel time and path-loyal travelers who do not change their routes from their pre-construction routes. The bi-level mixed integer nonlinear model is solved using a reinforcement learning-based algorithm (the multi-armed bandit-guided particle swarm optimization [PSO] technique). The computational experiments suggest the superiority of the proposed algorithm, compared to the classic PSO algorithm in terms of solution quality. The numerical results suggest that if the percentage of path-loyal travelers increases, the agency needs to invest more in road project construction to implement under partial closure to avoid a significant increase in vehicle emissions.","PeriodicalId":156,"journal":{"name":"Computer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering","volume":"46 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":11.775,"publicationDate":"2024-11-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142673123","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the actuation systems between these substructures inevitably introduce delays, affecting the stability and accuracy of RTHS. To address this issue, this study proposes an adaptive compensation method based on a conditional adaptive time series (CATS) compensator and a long short-term memory (LSTM) network, termed CATS-LSTM. The LSTM model predicts actuator responses for parameter estimation and calculates prediction errors, improving control performance and reducing delays. The effectiveness of the proposed CATS-LSTM method and the accuracy of the LSTM prediction are validated through a series of simulations and experiments. The results indicate that the proposed CATS-LSTM method outperforms both the CATS and phase lead (PL) methods. Compared to the CATS method, the proposed method reduces the maximum delay, root mean square error, and peak error by 3 ms, 3.66%, and 4.78%, respectively, while achieving reductions of 12 ms, 8.4%, and 10.05%, compared to the PL method. Furthermore, the CATS-LSTM method is significantly less sensitive to initial parameter estimates, compared to the CATS method, enhancing robustness and mitigating the effects of inaccurate or varying initial parameter estimates.","PeriodicalId":156,"journal":{"name":"Computer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering","volume":"12 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":11.775,"publicationDate":"2024-11-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142642664","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Based on the delay analysis, the spatiotemporal resource collaborative optimization model of lane setting and signal timing is established to minimize the average delay. Subsequently, in the buffer zone, a graph‐theoretic‐based sorting and platooning model provides a clear and concise representation of the transformation process from the initial state to the target state of vehicles, enabling the platoon formation.

Even though benefitting from deep learning, the decision-making still faces the problem of maintenance data uncertainty. The data uncertainty derives from imperfect road information collection and arbitrary selection of maintenance plans. Such uncertainty always leads to unreasonable maintenance decision-making. This study proposes an evidential approach using information entropy (IE) and Dempster–Shafer theory (DST) to capture and handle uncertainty in the decision-making of project-level road maintenance. The approach first uses an IE-based judgment method (IE-based method) to capture and observe quantitative data uncertainty. The DST-based method is then developed to handle maintenance data uncertainty through utilizing evidential neural network and set-valued decision-making. A numerical experiment is performed on the maintenance data with 280 km of semi-rigid base highways in China. The results indicate that the IE-based method can measure the data uncertainty in the information of road sections. The DST-based method captures the cautious intuition on the selection of maintenance plans, thereby reducing the decision error rate by over 14% under specific conditions when facing data uncertainty.","PeriodicalId":156,"journal":{"name":"Computer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering","volume":"7 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":11.775,"publicationDate":"2024-11-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142601117","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
