Abstract

This paper focuses on the challenging problem of cable tunnel cost prediction, aiming to achieve accurate estimation with the help of advanced technology so as to improve the level of project cost management. Facing the multi-source heterogeneous data generated by cable tunnel construction - characterised by diverse engineering design parameters, construction techniques, and external environmental factors - traditional prediction methods are often ineffective. Therefore, a cost forecasting model based on graph neural network (GNN) is constructed. In this paper, various optimisation strategies are employed, including the use of weighted mean squared error (WMSE) as the loss function and the stochastic gradient descent (SGD) optimisation algorithm. The results indicate that this model is efficient and reliable for cable tunnel cost prediction and can provide strong support for engineering cost management in practical applications.
