Multidamage Detection of Bridges Using Rough Set Theory and Naive‐Bayes Classifier

This paper is intended to introduce a two-stage detection method to solve the multidamage problem in bridges. Vibration analysis is conducted to acquire the dynamic fingerprints which are regarded as information sources. Bayesian fusion is used to integrate these sources and preliminarily locate the damage. Then, the RSNB method which combines rough set theory and Naive-Bayes classifier is proposed to simplify the sample dimensions and fuse the …
