SJR Q1Journal of Computing in Civil Engineering

Total conceptual cost estimates and the assessment of the quality of these estimates are critical in the early stages of a building construction project. In this study, the support vector machine (SVM) model for assessing the quality of conceptual cost estimates is proposed, and the application of SVM in construction areas is investigated. The results show that the SVM model assessed the quality of conceptual cost estimates slightly more accurately than the discriminant analysis model. This show

SJR Q1Remote SensingOA

With the advancement of light detection and ranging (LiDAR) technology, the mobile laser scanner (MLS) has been regarded as an important technology to collect geometric representations of the indoor environment. In particular, methods for detecting indoor objects from indoor point cloud data (PCD) captured through MLS have thus far been developed based on the trajectory of MLS. However, the existing methods have a limitation on applying to an indoor environment where the building components made
