Predictions of Wave Overtopping Using Deep Learning Neural Networks

Yu-Ting Tsai and Ching-Piao Tsai    

Resumen

Deep learning techniques have revolutionized the field of artificial intelligence by enabling accurate predictions of complex natural scenarios. This paper proposes a novel convolutional neural network (CNN) model that involves deep learning technologies, such as the bottleneck residual block, layer normalization, and dropout layer, to predict wave overtopping at coastal structures under a wide range of conditions. To optimize the performance of the CNN model, the hyperparameter tuning process via Bayesian optimization is used. The results of validation demonstrate that the proposed CNN model is highly accurate in estimating wave overtopping discharge from hydraulic and structural parameters. The testing accuracy of the overtopping predictions using a prototype dataset shows that the proposed CNN model outperforms those existing machine learning models. An example application of the CNN model is presented for predicting prototype overtopping considering various crest freeboards of coastal structures.
