Performance Evaluation of Machine Learning Algorithms for Seismic Retrofit Cost Estimation Using Structural Parameters

Estimation of the seismic retrofit cost (SRC) is a complicated task in construction projects. In this study, the performance of four machine learning algorithms (MLAs), including Random Forest (RF), Extreme Learning Machine (ELM), Classification and Regression Tree (CART), and Multivariate Adaptive...
