Abstract

One of the artificial intelligence topics is artificial neural network in whichdata processing system is the idea of the human brain.The cause of processing data is many processorsthat treat in parallel form in order to solve the problem.The applications of artificial neural network with neuron model and different network architecture can be used to estimate, predict and modelling of complex problems in construction management. In order to bridge the gap between researchers and practitioners, this paper aims to summarise available information related to the applications of artificial neural network in construction. Literature related to artificial neural network that has been published in top quality journals from 1989 to 2014 have been reviewed and classified. Finally, suggestionshave been provided in the field of construction engineering and management for further research.

 

Keywords:Artificial neural network,construction management, construction project management
