Uncertainty-aware damage identification in short-span bridges via physics-informed variational autoencoder

arXiv:2607.05025v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Vibration-based damage identification in civil infrastructure is a challenging, ill-posed inverse problem due to measurement noise, sparse sensor arrays, and environmental variability. While deep learning is powerful for system identification, deterministic approaches lack reliable uncertainty quantification and can yield physically inconsistent results. This work proposes a robust probabilistic Scientific Machine Learning (SciML) framework: a physics-informed Gaussian copula variational autoencoder (PI-GCVAE) for structural health monitoring (SH
