Urban safety network for long-term structural health monitoring of buildings using convolutional neural network

Byung Kwan Oh et al.

Summary: This study proposed a structural response prediction method to evaluate long-term safety of structures, particularly when SHM system failure occurs. The method defined correlation between dynamic structural responses of nearby buildings under the same load effects using machine learning, and introduced a convolutional neural network to define the structural response correlation as a safety network. The method has the potential to be applied to multiple buildings and construct an urban safety network.

An efficient and robust sampler for Bayesian inference: Transitional Ensemble Markov Chain Monte Carlo

Adolphus Lye et al.

Summary: Bayesian inference is commonly used for parameter identification in engineering problems using iterative sampling methods, but these methods often require significant computational resources and parameter tuning. A new Transitional Ensemble Markov Chain Monte Carlo sampler is proposed, which uses an Affine-invariant Ensemble sampler and adaptive tuning algorithm to improve computational efficiency and robustness. The proposed sampler aims to be tune-free for users and ensure well-controlled acceptance rates of samples, potentially offering faster performance on complex engineering problems.

Efficient Bayesian model class selection of vector autoregressive models for system identification

Jia-Hua Yang et al.

Summary: This research presents an efficient Bayesian model class selection method for VAR model order selection, which quantifies uncertainties in system identification and captures structural dynamic properties effectively.
