A DATA MINING APPROACH FOR DISPUTES IN TURKISH PUBLIC CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS
Journal Title: AJIT-e: Bilişim Teknolojileri Online Dergisi - Year 2013, Vol 4, Issue 13
Abstract
When the disputes in public construction projects are not settled through negotiation participants may apply to arbitration, council or litigation. The disputes that have been adjudicated are recorded as a written matter in their archives. These documents are critical in terms of preventing future conflicts from turning into disputes. Project participants who want to minimize the risk of facing any disputes or who want to know how to tackle disputes should go through all documentation and look for similar cases. However it is a big challenge for participants who have little experience and knowledge about construction sector and its technical concepts. Accordingly it would be a useful solution to categorize such kind of documents automatically. This study presents a benchmarking with the previous studies in which the construction documentation is classified automatically in construction information technology. The most successful text mining techniques have been applied to documentation relating to public construction disputes that has been gathered from “Turkish Supreme Board of Infrastructure and Construction”, the results are discussed and a new approach has been presented.
