Machine Learning Methods in BIM-based Applications – a Review

Abstract

This paper presents a survey of machine learning (ML) methods used in applications dedicated to the building and construction industry. A building information modeling (BIM) model, being a database system for civil engineering data, is presented. A representative selection of methods and applications is described. The aim of this paper is to facilitate the continuation of research efforts and to encourage bigger participation of database system researchers in the field of civil engineering.
