Abstract

Intelligent Decision Support Systems (DSS) have gained considerable interest within the field of construction engineering through the utilization of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) methodologies. These systems possess the capacity to enhance decision-making processes and optimize the results of projects. Nevertheless, it is imperative to conduct a thorough and inclusive examination that incorporates and evaluates the various methodologies employed within this particular discipline, thereby bridging the existing void in research. The current state of research in the field of AI and ML in construction engineering is characterized by a dearth of comprehensive reviews that encompass the wide array of methodologies utilized. Although certain studies have delved into specific facets of this subject, there remains a novelty and research gap in terms of a holistic examination of the topic. The objective of this review is to conduct a comprehensive analysis of AI and ML methodologies in the field of construction engineering, with a specific emphasis on their practical applications, advantages, and constraints. The study also ascertains potential areas for future research and improvement in the domain of Intelligent DSS. This study employed a rigorous approach that involved an extensive review of scholarly literature and empirical investigations from 2001 to June 2023. The findings of the analysis indicate a noticeable increase in the number of research papers focusing on Intelligent DSS within the field of construction engineering during the last twenty years. The field has witnessed the emergence of key research areas, namely the utilization of Internet of Things (IoT), explainable AI, supply chain optimization, sustainable construction practices, and human�machine collaboration. The results of this study hold significant implications for the construction industry. The incorporation of AI and ML techniques within Intelligent DSS can effectively tackle various issues such as cost overruns, project delays, and safety concerns. © 2024 Elsevier Ltd
