Abstract

In this study, a model was developed for the estimating the locational thickness information of the upper clay layer to be used for the consolidation vulnerability evaluation in the Nakdong river estuary. To estimate ground layer thickness information, we developed four spatial estimation models using machine learning algorithms, which are RF (Random Forest), SVR (Support Vector Regression) and GPR (Gaussian Process Regression), and geostatistical technique such as Ordinary Kriging. Among the 4,712 borehole data in the study area collected for model development, 2,948 borehole data with an upper clay layer were used, and Pearson correlation coefficient and mean squared error were used to quantitatively evaluate the performance of the developed models. In addition, for qualitative evaluation, each model was used throughout the study area to estimate the information of the upper clay layer, and the thickness distribution characteristics of it were compared with each other.

본 연구에서는 국내 주요 연약지반으로 알려진 낙동강 조간대 지역의 압밀침하 취약성 평가에 활용할 상부점성토층의 위치별 두께 정보를 추정할 수 있는 모델을 개발하였다. 두께정보 추정을 위하여 기계학습 알고리즘인 RF (Random Forest), SVR (Support Vector Regression), GPR (Gaussian Process Regression)과 지구통계기법인 정규크리깅(Ordinary Kriging)을 이용한 4가지 공간추정 모델을 개발하고 상호 비교하였다. 모델 개발을 위하여 수집한 연구지역의 시추공 자료 4,712개 중 상부점성토층이 존재하는 2,948개의 시추공 자료를 사용하였으며, 개발된 모델들의 성능을 정량적으로 평가하기 위하여 피어슨(Pearson) 상관계수와 오차제곱평균(mean squared error)을 사용하였다. 또한, 정성적 평가를 위하여 연구지역 전역에 상부점성토층의 두께를 추정하여 점성토층의 지역별 분포 특성을 상호 비교하였다.
