Title: Developing a stacked ensemble model for construction labor productivity prediction with metaheuristic-optimized random forest

Authors: Abdirisak M. Abdillahi & Prof. Dr. Savaş Bayram.

This research advances data-driven approaches in construction management and supports sustainable development goals, particularly SDG 9 (Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure), SDG 8 (Decent Work and Economic Growth), and SDG 11 (Sustainable Cities and Communities), by improving the reliability of labor productivity prediction and decision-making in resource-constrained construction environments.
