Review on Application of Artificial Intelligence in Civil Engineering

In last few years, big data and deep learning technologies have been successfully applied in various fields of civil engineering with the great progress of machine learning techniques. However, until now, there has been no comprehensive review on its applications in civil engineering. To fill this gap, this paper reviews the application and development of artificial intelligence in civil engineering in recent years, including intelligent algorithms, big data and deep learning. Through the work of this paper, the research direction and difficulties of artificial intelligence in civil engineering for the past few years can be known. It is shown that the studies of artificial intelligence in civil engineering mainly focus on structural maintenance and management, and the design optimization.
