Outline of Final Research Achievements

In this study, we conducted research to refine the tsunami simulation and to improve the accuracy of immediate prediction of tsunami heights in a wide range by scenario mixing using multi-level Gaussian process regression, and to promote the practical application of the scenario mixing approach. Specifically, first, to improve the accuracy of tsunami height prediction, we conducted tsunami simulations with a non-uniform slip distribution that could exist in reality. Secondly, the maximum tsunami height and the arrival time of the tsunami at the sea bottom pressure sensor off the Kii Peninsula were used to predict the coastal tsunami height with high accuracy by Gaussian process regression. Finally, for emergency response to a major tsunami disaster, we constructed a prediction model for tsunami inundation depth estimation using deep learning to estimate the inundation depth of land for rescue operations.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

今回構築した津波高予測のための高精度シミュレーション及び、津波高即時予測手法は,高速計算や大規模データベースを必要としない,軽量で堅牢な予測システムを構築できる.現在,大規模な津波予測システムが主流になりつつあるが,大災害時の不測の事態を緩和するためにこのようなスタンドアロン型の予測システムを持つことは有益であると考えている.
