Abstract
The first paper of this two-paper series has developed an understanding of neurofuzzy concept modelling techniques. This second paper demonstrates the power and versatility of neurofuzzy methods when applied to the determination of construction project duration. The paper explains data selection and preprocessing, the modelling process and optimization of developed models. The paper also presents and discusses the results generated by the developed model.

N.B. Descriptive scope is a count of how many of the five facets of empirical research are indicated by the words used in title, abstract and keywords. It is not intended as a judgement on the research; merely a count of the kind of word we would expect to indicate Phenomenon, Concepts, Theoretical framing, Empirical techniques, Analytical techniques. If all five are present, then a code of “5 PCTEA” will indicate this. If you feel the coding for this record is questionable, we welcome discussion around the terms we matched or the way we categorized them. The facet you would expect may not be coded, or a facet may be coded inappropriately. This can also bear on a larger question, of which facets should be treated as defining in construction management research. Please get in touch, and we will look at it. More details here
