The paper briefly introduces an element-based multi-objective optimization (EB-MOO) methodology to support state departments of transportation with their decision-making process, asset management, and performance-based planning programming. focuses on the bridge class consists five modules: (i) data processing, (ii) improvement, (iii) element-level (ELO), (iv) bridge-level (BLO), (v) network-le...

Densely Connected Convolutional Networks (DenseNet) have demonstrated impressive performance on image classification tasks, but limited research has been conducted using character-level DenseNet (char-DenseNet) architectures for text tasks. It is not clear what are optimal The iterative task of designing, training and testing char-DenseNets a time consuming that requires expert domain knowledge...
