An automated machine learning approach for classifying infrastructure cost data (2023)
Journal Article
Dopazo, D. A., Mahdjoubi, L., Gething, B., & Mahamadu, A. (2024). An automated machine learning approach for classifying infrastructure cost data. Computer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering, 39(7), 1061-1076. https://doi.org/10.1111/mice.13114

Data on infrastructure project costs are often unstructured and lack consistency. To enable costs to be compared within and between organizations, large amounts of data must be classified to a common standard, typically a manual process. This is time...

A method to enable automatic extraction of cost and quantity data from hierarchical construction information documents to enable rapid digital comparison and analysis (2023)
Journal Article
Adanza Dopazo, D., Mahdjoubi, L., & Gething, B. (2023). A method to enable automatic extraction of cost and quantity data from hierarchical construction information documents to enable rapid digital comparison and analysis. Buildings, 13(9), Article 2286. https://doi.org/10.3390/buildings13092286

Context: Despite the effort put into developing standards for structuring construction costs and the strong interest in the field, most construction companies still perform the process of data gathering and processing manually. This provokes inconsis...

The efficacy of biodiversity and ecosystem assessment approaches for informing a regenerative approach to built development (2023)
Journal Article
Cianchi, B., Everard, M., Gething, B., Cooke, R., & Ginepro, M. (2024). The efficacy of biodiversity and ecosystem assessment approaches for informing a regenerative approach to built development. Integrated Environmental Assessment and Management, 20(1), 248-262. https://doi.org/10.1002/ieam.4811

The built environment, even at its “greenest,” inevitably entails changing ecosystem structure and function. Multiple sustainable development tools and approaches are available to reduce environmental harm from built development. However, the reality...
