Street house is a common type of housing in Taiwan. According to the statistics of the 2015 housing survey of Construction and Planning Agency, street houses occupied 49.20% of the housing types. It can be seen that street house is an important housing type in Taiwan. This type of low-rise building was severely damaged in previous earthquakes and suffered great loss of life and property. Therefore, how to quickly assess the seismic performance of existing street houses are critical issues that deserved to further investigate. Besides, when the researchers using artificial intelligence to infer the seismic performance of street houses, are often confused about how to determine the appropriate number of factors and judge the pros and cons of the seismic inference model. These are also main topics worthy of discussions. This paper adopted the collapse ground acceleration as the seismic performance of street houses. Owing to the calculation of the acceleration often takes lots of time and budget, and must rely on the knowledge of experts in the field to determine, it is difficult for general engineers to accomplish this job. In order to solve the above problems and preserve the valuable knowledge of experts, the principal component analysis, data mining, grey theory, artificial neural network (ANN) and gene expression programming (GEP) method were used to infer the seismic factors and assessment models of street houses. Furthermore, this paper also used the sensitivity analysis to experiment the seismic assessment model under different number of seismic factors. Results show that when using 13 seismic factors, the seismic assessment model is the best, and the inference results of the ANN and GEP are also good. This paper mainly used artificial intelligence theories as the research methods, exploring the seismic assessments of street houses with different aspects, hoping to obtain new vision about seismic evaluation from different research perspectives. The research results can be used by construction professionals, and the developed research methods also can be referenced for subsequent researches in academia. |
