Zusammenfassung:Summary A novel model is presented for global health monitoring of large structures such as high‐rise building structures through adroit integration of 2 signal processing techniques, synchrosqueezed wavelet transform and fast Fourier transform, an unsupervised machine learning technique, the restricted Boltzmann machine, and a recently developed supervised classification algorithm called neural dynamics classification (NDC) algorithm. The model extracts hidden features in the frequency domain of the denoised measured response signals recorded by sensors on different elevations or floors of a structure. The extracted features are used as an input of the NDC to detect and classify the global health of the structure into categories such as healthy, light damage, moderate damage, severe damage, and near collapse. The proposed model is validated using the data obtained from a 3D 1:20 scaled 38‐story reinforced concrete building structure. The results are compared with 3 other supervised classification algorithms: k‐nearest neighbor (KNN), probabilistic neural networks (PNN), and enhanced PNN (EPNN). NDC, EPNN, PNN, and KNN yield maximum average accuracies of 96%, 94%, 92%, and 82%, respectively.
