A data-driven approach for investigating shear strength of slender steel fiber reinforced concrete beams

Using a data-driven approach to study and predict the shear strength of slender steel fiber reinforced concrete beams has great applicability for the design and construction process. Based on the data-driven approach, an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) model with some hyperparameters optimized by Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm is successfully built.
