“…5 artificial neural networks (ANNs) undoubtedly deserve to be highlighted among the machine learning algorithms. ANNs are extremely versatile and can be applied to SHM problems through various architectures, such as fully connected networks, 6,7 autoencoders, 8,9 and, more recently, convolutional neural networks (CNNs). 10,11 A CNN is a type of ANN commonly used in image recognition and processing tasks.…”
