Popis: Civil structures may deteriorate during their service life due to degradation or damage imposed by natural hazards such as earthquakes, wind, and impact. Structural performance anomaly detection is essential to provide an early warning of structural degradation limit states in order to prevent potential catastrophic failure. Data-driven machine learning approaches have been widely used for this, due to their capability in capturing features sensitive to damage-induced anomalies from structural health monitoring (SHM) data, assuming that such data are available. Although machine learning models have been used, many are challenged by the vast operational and environmental variability that can corrupt SHM data and by (typically) strongly correlated information from different sensors in the SHM data. This paper proposes an unsupervised deep learning approach for the detection of structural anomaly based on a deep convolutional variational autoencoder (DCVAE) for feature extraction coupled with support vector data description (SVDD) for anomaly detection. The proposed DCVAE-SVDD method has several appealing strengths. First, the variational latent encoding is used to capture the features of monitoring data through a probability distribution. The integration of the Kullback–Leibler divergence in the loss function provides accurate estimation of the probability distributions. Second, the DCVAE designed with convolutional and deconvolutional operations utilizes the correlation among multisensor data to avoid loss of correlation features and achieve better performance in feature extraction. Third, the SVDD is utilized to create a minimum-volume hypersphere that contains the anomaly-sensitive statistical features of the state. The hypersphere accurately separates anomaly-sensitive statistical features of reference states of structure from the anomalous ones. A computational frame model and a laboratory grandstand model are used to evaluate the performance of the proposed method for detecting structural anomaly. The results demonstrate the superiority of the proposed DCVAE-SVDD in detection accuracy over the other commonly used structural anomaly detection methods (deep autoencoder combined with SVDD autoregressive model with one-class support vector machine, and principal component analysis).
