Applied artificial intelligence for predicting construction projects delay
(2021-09-25)
This study presents evidence of a developed ensemble of ensembles predictive model for delay prediction – a global phenomenon that has continued to strangle the construction sector despite considerable mitigation efforts. ...
A Comparative Study on Machine Learning Algorithms for Assessing Energy Efficiency of Buildings
(Springer Nature, 2021-09-17)
An increase in energy demand in buildings continues to give rise to air pollution with a consequent impact on human health. To curb this trend, energy efficiency assessment plays a crucial role in helping to understand the ...

Addressing Behavioural Safety Concerns on Qatari Mega Projects
(2021-09-01)
This study explores the behavioural safety measures for addressing accidents on Qatar mega projects which are infamous for their high rates of accidents and fatality. Using extant literature and brainstorming as sources ...
Boruta-grid-search least square support vector machine for NO2 pollution prediction using big data analytics and IoT emission sensors
(2021-08-13)
Purpose This paper seeks to assess the performance levels of BA-GS-LSSVM compared to popular standalone algorithms used to build NO2 prediction models. The purpose of this paper is to pre-process a relatively large data ...

In the effort to achieve accurate air pollution predictions, researchers have contributedvarious methodologies with varying data and different approaches that can be judgedaccurate in their respective contexts. Diverse ...
Effects of Building Information Modeling on Construction Projects Delay: A Systematic Review
(2021-07-08)
Time is a critical factor or primary success metric in measuring the progress of construction projects since they are normally time-bound. The construction industry, on the other hand, seldom completes projects on time due ...
A Comparative Study on Machine Learning Algorithms for Predicting Construction Projects Delay
(Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, 2021-07-08)
The perpetual occurrence of a global phenomenon – delay in construction industry despite considerable mitigation efforts remains a huge concern to its policy makers. Interestingly, this industry which produces massive ...
Random Forest Feature Selection for Particulate Matter (PM10) Pollution Concentration
(Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, 2021-07-08)
There are already countless articles on strategies to limit human exposure to particulate matter10 (PM10) pollution because of their disastrous impact on the environment and people's well-being in the United Kingdom (UK) ...
Building energy consumption using deep learning
(Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, 2021-07-08)
The consumption of energy in buildings has elicited the occurrence of many environmental problems such as air pollution. Building energy consumption prediction is fundamental for improved decision-making towards regulating ...
