Our long-term vision is to establish a decentralized AI hub that connects a self-sustaining organizational structure with scientists, developers, users, policy makers, and educators across academia, industry, and governmental agencies to accelerate AI innovation in construction engineering. The hub will include high-quality, accessible, and reproducible AI datasets (e.g., images, 3D point clouds, and sensor data), models (e.g., building information models), algorithms, domain applications, guidelines, policies and strategies, documentations, and learning materials.

To achieve this goal, ACID needs support to develop a more comprehensive dataset for an innovative construction future. We would like to invite more contributors/researchers to this community and expand the ACID dataset suite.  If you want to share your datasets via ACID website, we will be able to setup a specific webpage for you to demo your dataset and related findings to increase your exposure to the community. Please contact Dr. Bo Xiao (dr.boxiao@gmail.com) if you want to contribute to ACID, sharing your datasets via our website, or discuss in-depth collaboration.
