Abstract

A large number of studies on wave breaking have been carried out, and many experimental data have been documented. Moreover, on the basis of various experimental data set, many empirical or semi-empirical formulas based primarily on regression analysis have been proposed to quantitatively estimate wave breaking for engineering applications. However, wave breaking has an inherent variability, which imply that a linear statistical approach such as linear regression analysis might be inadequate. This study presents an alternative nonlinear method using an neural network, one of the machine learning methods, to estimate breaking wave height and breaking depth. The neural network is modeled using Tensorflow, a machine learning open source platform distributed by Google. The neural network is trained by randomly selecting the collected experimental data, and the trained neural network is evaluated using data not used for learning process. The results for wave breaking height and depth predicted by fully trained neural network are more accurate than those obtained by existing empirical formulas. These results show that neural network is an useful tool for the prediction of wave breaking.

지금까지 연안에서 발생하는 쇄파에 대한 연구는 지속적으로 수행되었으며, 그에 따른 많은 실험자료가 축적되어 왔다. 또한, 다양한 실험자료로부터 공학적인 적용을 위한 쇄파 정보를 정량적으로 예측하기 위하여 회귀분석에 기반한 다양한 경험식이 제안되었다. 그러나 쇄파는 내재하고 있는 변동성이 있으므로 선형 회귀분석과 같은 선형적 통계접근 방법에는 한계가 있다. 본 연구에서는 쇄파파고 및 쇄파수심을 예측하기 위하여 기계학습 중 하나인 신경망을 사용하는 비선형 방법을 제안하였다. 신경망은 구글에서 배포하고 있는 머신러닝 오픈소스 플랫폼인 텐서플로(Tensorflow)를 이용하여 구축하였다. 신경망 모델은 수집된 실험자료를 무작위로 선택하여 학습하였으며, 학습에 이용하지 않은 자료를 사용하여 학습된 신경망을 평가하였다. 학습된 신경망에 의해 예측된 쇄파파고와 쇄파수심에 대한 예측결과는 기존의 경험식에 의한 계산결과에 비해 높은 예측성능을 보였으며, 이는 충분히 학습된 신경망은 쇄파파고 및 수심을 예측하기 위한 유용한 도구로 사용될 수 있음을 보여준다.
