Recognizing equipment activities helps construction managers to detect the equipment downtime\/idle time in a real-time framework, estimate the productivity rate of each equipment based on its progress, and efficiently evaluate the cycle time of each activity. Thus, it leads to project cost reduction and time schedule improvement. Previous studies on this topic have been based on single sources of data (e.g., kinematic, audio, video signals) for automated activity-detection purposes. However, relying on only one source of data is not appropriate, as the selected data source may not be applicable under certain conditions and fails to provide accurate results. To tackle this issue, the authors propose a hybrid system for recognizing multiple activities of construction equipment. The system integrates two major sources of data\u2014audio and kinematic\u2014through implementing a robust data fusion procedure. The presented system includes recording audio and kinematic signals, preprocessing data, extracting several features, as well as dimension reduction, feature fusion, equipment activity classification using Support Vector Machines (SVM), and smoothing labels. The proposed system was implemented in several case studies (i.e., ten different types and equipment models operating at various construction job sites) and the results indicate that a hybrid system is capable of providing up to 20% more accurate results, compared to cases using individual sources of data.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s19194286","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,10,4]],"date-time":"2019-10-04T04:12:52Z","timestamp":1570162372000},"page":"4286","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":42,"title":["A Hybrid Kinematic-Acoustic System for Automated Activity Detection of Construction Equipment"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"19","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1187-0277","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Behnam","family":"Sherafat","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, University of Utah, Salt Lake City, UT 84112, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Abbas","family":"Rashidi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, University of Utah, Salt Lake City, UT 84112, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0040-0894","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Yong-Cheol","family":"Lee","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Construction Management, Louisiana State University, Baton Rouge, LA 70803, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6733-2216","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Changbum R.","family":"Ahn","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Construction Science, Texas A&amp;M University, College Station, TX 77843, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,10,3]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"240","DOI":"10.1016\/j.autcon.2017.06.005","article-title":"Activity analysis of construction equipment using audio signals and support vector machines","volume":"81","author":"Cheng","year":"2017","journal-title":"Autom.
