Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Seismic assessment of an urban environment is a time-consuming and complicated task that also requires considerable financial resources. In this paper, we suggest an approach to the seismic evaluation of urban buildings based on data mining methods. Regarding this topic, researches have been conducted on 163 typical objects with 19 different features including various types of buildings. The k-means method was used to create clusters of similar objects, it also allowed us to determine dependencies between data. More accurate clustering models were obtained using a hierarchical algorithm. The quality of the proposed methods was evaluated to ensure the reliability of the obtained results.
