In this study, a comprehensive approach that integrates descriptive statistics, correlation analysis, and machine learning algorithms is employed to develop models and predict punchouts in CRCP. The dataset used in this study is extracted from the Long-Term Pavement Performance (LTPP) database and contains a wide range of pavement attributes, such as age, climate zone, thickness, and traffic data. Initial exploratory analysis reveals varying distributions among the input features, which serves as the foundation for subsequent analysis. A correlation heatmap matrix is utilized to elucidate the relationships between these attributes and punchouts, guiding the selection of features for modeling. By employing the random forest algorithm, key predictors like age, climate zone, and total thickness are identified. Various machine learning techniques, encompassing linear regression, decision trees, support vector machines, ensemble methods, Gaussian process regression, artificial neural networks, and kernel-based approaches, are compared. It is noteworthy that ensemble methods such as boosted trees and Gaussian process regression models exhibit promising predictive performance, with low root mean square error (RMSE) and high R-squared values. The outcomes of this study provide valuable insights for the development of pavement management strategies, facilitating informed decision-making regarding resource allocation and infrastructure maintenance. Future research could focus on refining models, exploring additional features, and validating results through real-world implementation trials. This study contributes to advancing predictive modeling techniques for optimizing CRCP infrastructure management and durability.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":72138,"journal":{"name":"AI in civil engineering","volume":"4 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s43503-025-00057-7.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143944375","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper, a comprehensive inspection method is proposed to address these limitations by integrating multi-defect detection, 3D coordinate acquisition, and visualization. The inspection process involves the capture of both image data and point cloud data of tunnel linings using the newly developed inspection cart (MTI-300). The proposed fusion approach combines image and point cloud data, leveraging the enhanced YOLOv8-seg instance segmentation model for defect identification. The scale-invariant feature transform (SIFT) algorithm is used to match local defect regions in the image data with the corresponding point cloud data, enabling the extraction of 3D coordinates and the integration of defect pixels with the point cloud information. Subsequently, a lightweight 3D reconstruction model is developed to visualize the entire tunnel and its defects using the fused data. The performance of the proposed method is validated and substantiated through a field experiment on Metro Line 8 in Qingdao, China.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":72138,"journal":{"name":"AI in civil engineering","volume":"4 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s43503-025-00054-w.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143913949","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Traditionally, empirical formulas provided by building codes such as Eurocode 8 and ASCE 7–22 primarily rely on building height to estimate the fundamental period. However, these height-based models often overlook the significant influence of other structural parameters, such as bracing configurations, bracing lengths, and material properties. This study addresses these limitations by offering a comprehensive evaluation of the factors affecting the fundamental period of steel-braced RC buildings, using advanced computational techniques for more precise and interpretable predictions. A dataset comprising 17,280 building models with varied structural configurations was generated using computational simulations. Key parameters, including total building height, bracing type, bracing length, and building dimensions, were systematically varied. The study utilized machine learning techniques and employed SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) and Individual Conditional Expectation (ICE) plots as post-hoc interpretability tools to analyze the contributions of structural parameters. Results show that total building height remains the dominant factor, contributing approximately 45% to the predicted fundamental period, while bracing length and bracing type significantly influence the period, reducing it by up to 20%. The inclusion of these parameters improves prediction accuracy and reveals limitations in existing height-based formulas. The study concludes that height alone is insufficient for accurate prediction of the fundamental period in steel-braced RC buildings. Incorporating bracing systems and other structural factors is essential for more reliable seismic design. These findings contribute to the development of more resilient building codes and enhanced seismic performance.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":72138,"journal":{"name":"AI in civil engineering","volume":"4 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s43503-025-00051-z.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143581225","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Parameters of rock strength, including uniaxial compressive strength (UCS), Young’s modulus (E), and Poisson’s ratio (ν), are critical attributes of rock materials vital for applications such as rock slope stability assessment, tunnel construction, and foundation design. Conventionally, the measurement of UCS, E, and ν in laboratory settings resource-intensive, requiring considerable time and financial investment. This study proposes to provide a comprehensive assessment framework using an adaptive boosting machine (AdaBoost), extreme gradient boosting machine (XGBoost), and category gradient boosting machine (CatBoost), to indirectly estimate UCS, E, and ν through streamlined mineralogical analyses. The performance of the boosting trees was analyzed using Taylor diagrams and a suite of five regression metrics: coefficient of determination (R<sup>2</sup>), root mean square error (RMSE), mean absolute error (MAE), variance accounted for (VAF), and the A-20 index. The results indicate that the proposed boosting trees robust predictive capabilities for the constructed database. Notably, AdaBoost demonstrated the highest efficacy in predicting the strength of carbonate rock, achieving R<sup>2</sup> values of 0.98, 0.99, and 0.97, with the lowest RMSE values of 0.3164, 0.63, and 0.18, for UCS, E, and ν, respectively. Moreover, variable importance analysis highlighted that the presence of micrite and calcite has a significant impact on predicting UCS, E, and ν of carbonate rock.
