Inverse Filtering for Frequency Identification of Bridges Using Smartphones in Passing Vehicles: Fundamental Developments and Laboratory Verifications
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This paper puts forward a novel methodology of employing inverse filtering technique to extract bridge features from acceleration signals recorded on passing vehicles using smartphones. Since the vibration of a vehicle moving on a bridge will be affected by various features related to the vehicle, such as suspension and speed, this study focuses on filtering out these effects to extract bridge frequencies. Hence, an inverse filter is designed by employing the spectrum of vibration data of the vehicle when moving off the bridge to form a filter that will remove the car-related frequency content. Later, when the same car is moving on the bridge, this filter is applied to the spectrum of recorded data to suppress the car-related frequencies and amplify the bridge-related frequencies. The effectiveness of the proposed methodology is evaluated with experiments using a custom-built robot car as the vehicle moving over a lab-scale simply supported bridge. Nine combinations of speed and suspension stiffness of the car have been considered to investigate the robustness of the proposed methodology against car features. The results demonstrate that the inverse filtering method offers significant promise for identifying the fundamental frequency of the bridge. Since this approach considers each data source separately and designs a unique filter for each data collection device within each car, it is robust against device and car features.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
