Application of Neural Network in Duration Implicit Cost Control for Construction Projects

Abstract:

According to the characteristics of construction project, it set the third level of duration implicit cost, deepening the understanding of the duration implicit cost in construction project. Through analyzing the similar characteristics of the technique of project network diagram and neural network, it built a duration implicit cost control model based on neural network, which can adjust the project network diagram to the optimization direction. Aiming at the defects of the traditional neural network, the variable learning rate back-propagation arithmetic and the additional momentum method were introduced, and the duration implicit cost control model was built, improving the accuracy of the control for the neural network technique.
