In the last few decades, structural health monitoring has gained relevance in the context of civil engineering, and much effort has been made to automate the process of data acquisition and analysis through the use of data-driven methods. Currently, the main issues arising in automated monitoring processing regard the establishment of a robust approach that covers all intermediate steps from data acquisition to output production and interpretation. To overcome this limitation, we introduce a dedicated artificial-intelligence-based monitoring approach for the assessment of the health conditions of structures in near-real time. The proposed approach is based on the construction of an unsupervised deep learning algorithm, with the aim of establishing a reliable method of anomaly detection for data acquired from sensors positioned on buildings. After preprocessing, the data are fed into various types of artificial neural network autoencoders, which are trained to produce outputs as close as possible to the inputs. We tested the proposed approach on data generated from an OpenSees numerical model of a railway bridge and data acquired from physical sensors positioned on the Historical Tower of Ravenna (Italy). The results show that the approach actually flags the data produced when damage scenarios are activated in the OpenSees model as coming from a damaged structure. The proposed method is also able to reliably detect anomalous structural behaviors of the tower, preventing critical scenarios. Compared to other state-of-the-art methods for anomaly detection, the proposed approach shows very promising results. |
